Social Media Surgery and Coffee…. perfection?
July 13, 2013Next Saturday (20th) will see July’s Walsall Social Media Surgery kick off at half nine in the town’s Starbucks coffee shop.
Granted, that particular retailer may have a slightly patchy record when it comes to taxation and fair play, but the individual branches tend to be good, and I enjoy their filter coffee.
The event is an opportunity for those of us who are about on a Saturday morning to gather, share ideas, pick things up off one another and generally chew the fat. At the same time, some folks with fine minds and degrees from the school of life will be around to help you understand and use social media and related tech effectively. If you fancy it, please take a look at the website, and sign up. We’d love to see you.

Walsall Social Media Surgery – Future Dates
May 28, 2013With the recent Social Media Surgery at the Black Country Arms, we met more people, drank beer, talked tech and generally assisted people who want to improve their skills and knowledge. I’m very grateful to fellow surgeons Dan Slee and Jimm Rennie for their sterling work.
It’s no great secret I love this activity – helping other people more or less to help themselves to the social media tools they need for their voluntary org, non profit, or their personal online activity.
So, coming up: Read the rest of this entry »

Knowing when to Quit
May 19, 2013Surprisingly, this isn’t a post about jobs or even employment in the wider sense. It’s about volunteering and managing events. Read the rest of this entry »

Sharing the sweets
April 12, 2013At a couple of the events I’ve been to where Dan Slee has been allowed to have the floor for even a minute, he’s deployed and espoused a philosophy of “Sharing the Sweets” which I think is astounding in its simplicity.
