Good article on Wired disussing this (complete with some pretty funny example searches). People’s digital footprints are becoming ever more important, as are the security issues popping up left, right and centre in the wake of the advance of the global social networking machine.

Have to resist the urge to post stuff about cats pretty much daily. Here’s one that a) caught me just in the right (but wrong) frame of mind so it instantly became much more meaningful b) Freaked me out a bit as I’m not quite sure if it really is a cat.

From the wonderful Funny Cat Photos widget I have sat on my iGoogle main tab.

and this is what it was . . . (from Deirdre). I plan on going . . .

Okay, I don’t mean to cause alarm, but…

We are *** CLOSING REGISTRATION *** for Big Summer 07 very soon - possibly later today (Wed).

If you haven’t registered here:

You won’t be permitted entry.

Chinwag folks will *NOT* be on the door on the night, so if you turn up expecting to get in because you know one of us, you won’t be admitted unless your name is on the registration list that the university door staff have.

I know most of you have registered fully, but there’s always a few peeps who dont read the instructions on the packet for one reason or t’other

So, if you haven’t done so already, please sign-up here:

See you all next week!

So, tried logging onto Pandora just now and there it is - today is the Internet Radio Day of Silence.

Not sure what to say really, other than hope that everyone sorts it out and comes to a decision that both rewards artists and helps internet radio survive. I’ve really rather got used to being able to turn on Pandora at the flick of a switch . . .

Go here to find out more.

Remember that? Blimey how things have come along. Accidentally hit the Insert>Picture>ClipArt button today and it bought back lots of memories.

Nice story about the history behind the CD, shared with me by Jess. Always nice to have little human touches behind big “technological” things.

Seen this over on Nathan’s ever impressive blog. “Using ‘always on’ technology, cell phones with SMS allow an audience to interact with public space through projections on the structures that surround them”.

Can’t get enough of stuff like this. Mobile phone projectors are just round the corner too.

Also want to be able to use my mobile to actually graffiti posters - would be great to stand on a tube platform and write on an ad across the tracks . . . (not that I would because that would be illegal. But just want to know that I could).

Started a group on Facebook for “everyone that works in PR doing a “digital” role. Please join us if you fit the bill - and you get to talk about how whack the name is and all sorts of other intelligent things.

Hi there. Just emerging from everything to share this which my friend Kris shared with me. Normal service to resume shortly . . .

Charles Arthur has let off some steam about PR. He’s had a shocker of a week. Great insight into why PR needs to get a whole lot more “digital”.
