Be helpful

Chris Brogan recently wrote an excellent post about why community really matters.  And then  Valeria Maltoni waded in that ‘being helpful’ should be ‘the new black’.   If you’re in Melbourne on the 22nd and 23rd September, you can catch my friend Stephen Johnson and social media luminaries  such as Darren Rowse and David Armano over […]

Rheingold on 21st century literacies

Here’s a July 2009 talk at the Reboot Britain event by the grandfather of virtual communities.  He says that we have to get beyond individual skills to  acquire 21st century literacies, and that these skills plus community are what is driving social media.  This talk focuses on: attention, participation, cooperation; critical consumption (crap detection) and […]

Back to school

It’s been on my mind for a while.  Like the past 15 years. One of the things about getting older and moving to a small place, is that you gradually become the peer group.  And that’s when you can do one of two things.  Cruise into your comfort zone.  Or look at the warning signs […]

Open Government: exploring the impact of social media

Yesterday, together with my friend Gege Gatt,  I gave a talk to a COMNET-IT workshop meeting in Malta.  It was interesting to see public servants start to scramble for their 3G phones and laptops at the end. Here’s the deck of slides we presented. [slideshare id=1613055&doc=opengovernmentslideshare-090620111349-phpapp02]

First break all the rules

I was first attracted to this book by both the title, and the fact that it was co-written by Marcus Buckingham, a proponent of the ‘strengths’ philosophy that I have embraced in the work place. This is a deck of slides I have compiled for the Alt-MBA group that has spun out of Seth Godin’s […]

The Web is just 5,000 days old

Sometimes, it’s easy to forget that what we now take for granted is very young.  Here, Kevin Kelly outlines his vision for Web 3.0 and other things wonderful.  Kevin’s blog is always a source of inspiration. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J132shgIiuY&hl=en&fs=1]

IFA comes to town

I’ve spent the past 2 days immersed in the IFA Press Conference in Malta.   I first heard the Conference was coming to Malta when I picked up a tweet from Steven Leon from ShowStoppers on my ‘Malta’ search column on TweetDeck.  We exchanged a couple of 140-character tweets with links to our blogs and before […]

Yours socially

A CEO recently told me he had an inkling he needed to get his brands on ‘some of those social media things’ but that he had no idea where to start, or whether social media marketing worked. In contrast, Andrew Alamango of Etnika fame sold out two nights of Café Brazil jazz last autumn using […]

Tomorrow I start to teach a new course at the University of Malta, focusing on production, content, participation, meaning and power in social media and 21st century communications. I teach because it is the scariest thing I know. I teach so I am out of my comfort zone and have no choice other than to […]
