TechCrunch Turns Into Digg/YouTube

I was flicking through TechCrunch a moment ago and noticed that they had also published the Barack/Wassup YouTube ad. The post, by TechCrunch owner Michael Arrington, made no suggestion as to the rights or wrongs of the candidate, but merely suggested that it was a pretty cool video. At which point TechCrunch transformed into the [...]

Berocca Aims To De-Stress Bloggers

Berocca, the hang-over cure vitamin supplement beloved by millions of binge drinkers health nuts have jumped into the world of Web 2.0 and are engaged in a bit of social media marketing.

I’d be interested in blogs on, [...]

So I’m writing this on a train and it’s making me think that I really need to see if there are 12 steps to help me with my addiction.

In all the excitement of moving jobs, I realised that I completely forgot to mark my blog birthday…

London free newspaper Metro is running a competition to find the best blogs in Britain - and one that I write for has made the shortlist!

My good friends at Trackfeeder have been shortlisted in the Arts & Entertainment category of the Metro’s Brit Blog Awards 07. Obviously I’d like to claim that it’s all down [...]

Obviously everything on this site is the opinion of me, Ciarán Norris, and no-one else, including my employers and anyone else I know. I guess that it's probably obvious, but thought I should probably make it explicit. Anyway, enjoy!
