firstly, you can read some reviews of Stasis 10 by following these links here:Review by Kevin MatthewsReview by VisaAll in all, Stasis 10 was a pretty killer gig for Leeson. It was great playing to a crowd that was there to listen to local music, and the reception they gave was very encouraging and made me glad i'm a part of this scene. We played all our songs the way we …
I'm just doing my rounds around the web, and came across sheylara's latest foray as a gaming blogger. i'm glad for her and proud of her that's she's worked (and blogged) hard to be given the title as an Xbox Xpert. (if you must know, i do approach her for some PlayStation stories as well. - and she's been ever so kind)here's the thing i don't understand though, she has a …
not the usual title you might have expected of me if you've only been reading my blog for the past year. however, if you started reading me back when i started in 2003, this might seem vag …

a rather interesting micro-phenomena has been going on in my life. twice in the past week, my good friend napture has been informing me of new media (NM) trends and stories as they were re …
okay you lot. this sod promised Daryl that he would go down for the Social Media Breakfast @ Frujch last saturday, 29 March 2008. i'm glad i did, i met a bunch of great people, had really good conversations and best of all, i enjoyed myself.it also got me thinking, as PR practitioners who are evolving, we always talk about "oh yeah, and we can leverage on social media to do …
y'know what? i love my blog. it's not the best designed, nor does it come as the authority on any given situation. it's nothing like the blogs i recommend to clients that perhaps have a specific communications goal in mind, but at the end of the day, it's mine. even if this blog does not take part in discussions that shake our industries, or enlighten readers with …
A big topic was the idea of "paying bloggers" from a public relations standpoint, we can't pay bloggers, because that's like paying journalists. unfortunately, journalists get paid for the writing, and bloggers don't get paid for their hobby.what we do see is blogs like Techcrunch paying their own writers. Hence, the blog needs to attract enough attention (can you beat TC's …

it's been awhile since i last stepped into my blog. it's scary, knowing that it's there and i should type in it ever so often. but really, sometimes i'm human and i don't really know what i want to say. but oh well, we all have to grow up sometime right?

okay, so what makes a piece of content shareable? almost everyday, i reach out to influencers, but is my content influencing? or even spreadable?marketers like to call ideas that spread, the viral effect. it's like a disease, and then it becomes an epidemic. scary init?but it still doesn't address that magick that makes you wanna go tell someone else, or in this case, …
what's the first thing you think of when you think of the public relations practitioner? that he/she is a lying, sniveling rat that fluffs every piece of news and doctors the spin making the media untrustworthy?i dare say that this is only a fraction of the actual practitioners in the world today, and is only a stereotype borne by popular culture. and yet, the voices of those …
i'm sure there are many many definitions about social media, so i shan't add to the already saturated or diluted (depends on how you look at it) pot of ideas, but if i may, i'd just like to propose in a nutshell as to what social media means to me:when you and i produce content that is accessible to someone else, that content is social mediawhy is this important? it means we …

this easter long weekend has been a rather strange one of late. in a sense, everything went as it should, everything was great and for most part, i'm happy, glad that i was a part of something.but still, the saturday was a very surreal one.. i felt a bit distanced from the things that were always around me. family, friends, activities.. it was a feeling of displacement that i …
