Instagram Addiction

It is easy to see the appeal of Instagram. 

A five-year-old's impressions of brandmarks

So spot on, almost makes me want to have a sharp kid like this. (Almost.)

NBA Forever. LOVING

Clip is dead-on perfect says the Boston Globe. Agree. Thank you TNT. You reminded me how much I loved basketball, something I miss by living in the UK.

 This is just so beautiful. I'm not a complete enough fan to recognize everyone but was tearing up at the concept alone (and Larry Bird memories).

ps: Thank you Internets, as I wouldn't have seen this without YouTube. #StopSOPA

Happy Boxing Day

This fiesty dude and the cat in a box brought to us via Procatinator. Enjoy.

Pepper Spray makes you cry

This was horrifying to watch. But the creativity around the meme is facinating. Tumblrs here and here. Even Martha got in the act. My contribution symbolizes that this is a message to America but ultimately our country is bigger than any rogue individual. (Fwiw, I really feel sorry for all the brave and honorable cops who are tainted by this jerk.)

Web 2 Summit

To me, this is a Cannes-like gathering of the geeks. Happy to get to go as well.

What I'm watching this October

Have downloaded this from iTunes. Will watch it whenever someone mentions the World Series. Thankfully pretty easy to avoid baseball news in London.

John Lewis is stalking me

Advertisers call it behavioral targeting. Frankly I am in the business and I still hate it. Dare to look at a page on the John Lewis site and you'll be stalked by ads scrolling through the very products you just looked at. Creepy.

By the way John Lewis, I already bought a rug at Bentalls. On sale. Was just comparing your higher prices. So STOP the stalking.
