One thing I've been thinking about. Comments appreciated. I think this is pretty naive, in a way. Would like to ponder more, and discuss.In today’s social media world, there is only one currency that matters. That currency is Time. The Time your followers devote to reading and ReTweeting your tweets on Twitter. The Time your…Read more The social media currency

SIRI – what’s next??
Well, I am dying to try this out, although I suspect that living in Finland will sort of lessen the experience compared to if I was situated in New York or anywhere else in the US.I mean, it looks and sounds and feels like an app that actually does what it promises to do, and…Read more SIRI – what’s next??
Mediespråk 2010 kommentar 1
Mediespråk 2010 går under underrubriken "...Ut med språket", första talare är Marit av Björkesten från Hufvudstadsbladet. En kommentar, att papperstidningen står för fördjupningen och bakgrunden, tror jag inte riktigt på. Papperstidningen förnyas varje dag och den gamla går i papperskorgen. På nätet finns artiklarna för alltid, och en ny artikel kan hänvisa tillbaka till en…Read more Mediespråk 2010 kommentar 1
Happy new year 2010
Been a while - decidedly more active on Twitter at the moment, and on the MediaCity Posterous blog (if I find something interesting to share...) Still, a happy new year 2010 to everyone! I can't help but think that this will be the year when we see massive upheaval somewhere in the world - what…Read more Happy new year 2010
It’s not what we do, it’s who we are.
...or, "My take on social media, pt II".See, it occured me the other day, that people have been for a very very long time defined by what they do. Sure, there have been royalties and icons, celebrities and famous people, who have reached a pinnacle where what they did didn't really matter anymore, just THAT…Read more It’s not what we do, it’s who we are.

NaNoWriMo
With all things going on in economics, with the world ending in 2012 or so... it's good to do something completely different once in a while. Spurred on by how fun it was to do the #BBCAWDIO writing thing on Twitter, I decided to try my hand at NaNoWriMo, the annual writing effort where you…Read more NaNoWriMo
BBCAWDIO thoughts
(Another slightly off topic post)#BBCAWDIO musingsWhat if… What we are seeing is a power struggle in another universe, the mirror world. The key to the power struggle – which could be between a) the Queen, the Prince and their cohorts and b) the Resistance, fronted by Finnegan, perhaps the original Puppet, perhaps Pinman etc –…Read more BBCAWDIO thoughts
BBCAWDIO loose threads
(first of all, this is a kind of off topic post, since I'm involved in the #bbcawdio venture on Twitter - look it up, it's great fun! This is just a place to put loose threads and I'll delete this and coming posts later. You probably won't make much of what is written here unless…Read more BBCAWDIO loose threads
When developing cross media content…
....remember that the story that is being told is the single most important ingredient in the whole of the project. It MUST be compelling, nice, engaging, entertaining... and suitable for 360 exploitation. Now "exploitation" is not a nice word in itself, but exploitation is exactly what a cross media concept needs to be just that…Read more When developing cross media content…
