Emily Quinton Wedding Photography →
Emily is my partner, mother to my lovely daughter and she is also a very talented wedding photographer.
I’m guilty of ‘inverse promotion’ as far as she’s concerned a lot of the time, so here’s a shameless plug! We’ve done a load of work on her site recently too…

Fundability: Make (Seed) Money Fast! →
I’ve had funding for projects before. Sometimes it has been a blessing. Sometimes it has been a downright curse. The lingering curse of having once been funded is being constantly approached by friends and acquaintances to find funding for their projects. Now I have a pat answer for them that doesn’t require me to tell them outright how hard it will be to find funding for a paintball booth...

Next time you fly Virgin America to (ahem) catch up on the latest episodes of Boing Boing tv, you may also want to check out video from TED Talks, which will debut in-flight throughout the fleet, starting this Friday.
The TED Talks channel will premier on Virgin America flights in March and will feature some of the most compelling and groundbreaking thinkers of our time – including former...

Network Solutions and ICANN Named in Class Action... →
Just a few days ago, according to reports from Ars Technica, a panel put Network Solutions up for questioning for allegations of domain frontrunning. Frontrunning is the practice in which users would look up a domain name via the registration-site WHOIS, and would appear available, but every other internet registrar would show the names as unavailable, and registered to Network Solutions, thus...

FT’s $3,300 Per Year Social Network Fails At... →
If you think LinkedIn is for kids and Facebook is for grandkids, perhaps you should consider Financial Times’ new social network, aimed at top level execs who can afford 1700 pounds (3,340 dollars) per year, because that’s how much (at the very least) membership costs.
The details about the network itself are sparse; it’s being described as a forum with a ‘user-friendly, simple, efficient and...
Creative Britain - Some West Midlands highlights →
Creative Britain is the culmination of the government’s lengthy consultation on the Creative Economy programme. For my West Midlands readers I thought it might be useful to summarise what’s in it for us:
Birmingham Repertory Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company are named as two of the organisations committed to providing some of the planned 5,000 formal apprenticeships a year by...

Felix sez, “Just found my way onto this site (on the promise of a list of calories burned during sex), and noticed the little note at the bottom saying I’d agreed to their user licence just by visiting. And what a joy it is! My favourite condition was probably forbidding ‘Accessing a maximum of 20 pages per day and a maximum of 200 pages per month.’ And of course the usual...
Finally, You Can Talk to Your Plant Via Twitter →
As if there weren’t enough folks on my Twitter list creating a virtual torrent of information screaming past my screen at all time, I can now make my plants talk to me over Twitter as well. That’s right, I said the plants. Like these tulips that my wife got from my sister on her birthday last week. Daniel Terdiman over at Webware made this fantastic discovery that the New York University’s...

No tram in Birmingham? Then what? →
The Birmingham Post today (23/2/2008) questions the future of the Midland Metro, which consists of one line between Birmingham Snow Hill and Wolverhampton. As Cabinet Member for Transportation 2003-4 I felt it a matter of great importance to advance new routes. Every new tram system brings out the NIMBY groups and so it did here with the Tories drumming up opposition in Edgbaston and Lib-Dems...
