Hideeeehooo!

Well it’s been a while  – too long in fact. Trying to resuscitate my blog after an extended leave of absence, so please bear with me!

Got some exciting and terrifying projects coming up – all change in camp aoifebeefah but I’m a great believer in preparing for the worst and hoping for the best.  I’m not a major risk taker, preferring to bet on a sure thing.  Having said that, some of my future projects will see me jumping head first into the unknown. It’ll be exciting right??? Perhaps….maybe…let’s hope so anyway!

Stay tuned for the uphill battles and downhill struggles and ultimate success – I hope! Feel free to ping me – I’ll be resurrecting some of my old social media sites soon and launching some new projects on my new upcoming site.

You heard it here first! LOL

(Local) Twestival is back

Well, we’re back with a bang – the North East Twestival team that is!

So what is Twestival?

Twestival grew from a group of Twitter users who wanted to meet some of their Twitter contacts offline and raise money for charity at the same time. After a few successful smaller events, Twestival went global on the 12th of February, raising much needed funds for charity:water.

This time volunteers are coming together to raise money for local charities in their own constituencies. If you want to get involved, please go to the main Twestival site and locate your local Twestival.

Tools – Managing Your Online Presence (more efficiently)

Not a bad attempt from the lads to put some decent tools together on the one page. I think the only issue with some brands is the content they fill their sites with…………utter crap sometimes!   There is an interesting blog post here about press releases via social media.  A less costly way to get some PR - LINK.

Tide is turning perhaps?

Open Source and Social Media

I’d love to take the time to expand on this cracking article. Gets you thinking about the emerging technologies and the people behind it.   It might be worth noting what a “social network” is as opposed to “social media” (link)

Good Enough?

New company in the NE I think – someone sent me a link to their online “library”. People have to stop using this word. Either way – articles might be worth a read.
