  • Ofcom says yes on more TV ads

    I’m disgusted to find out that Ofcom is about to allow more advertising on commercial television channels in the UK. Somehow, in response to people using more personal video recorders like Sky Plus, Ofcom’s been fooled in believing that the…

  • SXSWi 2008: "The Future of Corporate Blogs" panel notes

    These aren’t the tidiest notes, and I even failed on jotting down exactly who was speaking but there are a few useful points in there… Thanks to Lionel for the insight on how Dell dealt with feedback in the early…

  • SXSWi 2008: "Creative Collaboration: Designers and Developers working together"

    I wasn’t so hot on this panel, found there was a lot of navel-gazing and not enough direction. Also, I don’t know what world these guys live in but do they not also have to contend with marketing, business dev,…

  • SXSWi 2008: "Self-Replicating Awesomeness: The Marketing of No Marketing" panel notes

    For this panel, I ditched the laptop and only used pen and paper so my notes are less than clear. In fact, I’m lucky if I can read my own handwriting, but the highlights for me were finally meeting the…

  • What English sounds like when you don't speak it

    People are often surprised when I tell them that English isn’t my first language and that I wasn’t comfortably speaking it all the way into my early teens. I also clearly remember hearing music in English when I was very…

  • Delia's new "cookery cheat" show: Has she lost her marbles?

    Andrew and I have now watched a couple of episodes of Delia’s new cooking show where she shows busy people how to get nice meals together quickly. Now, what mystifies me is that while she’s targeting time-poor people, she’s unquestionably…

  • SXSWi 2008: "What teens want online and on their phones" panel notes

    The notes from this panel are pretty thorough – it was one of the first panels I attended and I was pretty enthusiastic with the typing. Interesting findings, but the main takeaway for me is that these kids are clever…

  • SXSWi 2008: "Cognitive Seduction 4.0: 20 ways to woo our users" panel notes

    Cognitive Seduction 4.0: 20 ways to woo our users Kathy Sierra, Creating Passionate Users For this panel, I’ll admit my notes were a bit patchy and I relied on a few other ppl’s notes to improve them. I was too…

  • SXSWi 2008: "A/B Testing: Design Friend or Foe?" panel notes

    Since I attended SXSW last week, I thought it’d be the right thing to do to share my notes from panels. They’re incomplete, I’ve probably interpreted some statements wrongly, there are probably plenty of typos. But I felt I’d be…

  • Hippie 2.0: Reflecting upon SXSW 2008

    South by SouthWest is over. Well, the interactive bit is anyways. Music is clearly still going strong, as I witnessed walking down 6th Street and lucking out on seeing Simian Mobile Disco at La Zona Rosa with a few of…
