Mad Young Thing: July 2010
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 27 July 2010. My iPhone is safe now, my @tuffasnuts nutshell arrived :). Wednesday, 21 July 2010. Look what we got from @petalcupcakes. BarCamp went very well. I love it when things come about and they look like you carefully planned them. The debut of Ragtag Leadership at BarCamp Auckland. Was one of those times. . And people liked the contrast between the Star Trek model and the Firefly model. Doctor Who got somewhat lost, so Ill have to rethink that piece. . If you have no idea what Im talkin...

Mad Young Thing: September 2010
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 29 September 2010. Coolest people at #marieworkshops. We have cool people here. A lot of synergies and crossovers too! Sent from my iPhone. Friday, 17 September 2010. So About this massive storm? Thursday, 2 September 2010. Great idea. A bit mystifying on the iPhone. Wise words on selling from Michael Hill. Let the customers know you have noticed them and are attentive and interested - but never make them feel like you only care about them because they might buy something. Sent from my iPhone.

Mad Young Thing: March 2010
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 24 March 2010. What Rob learnt at Marie Workshops today. Links are the best thing about the web. They take you from here. Linking is what makes the web different from a book. This is the ship my great-great-great-grandparents arrived to New Zealand in, in February 1840, the same month the Treaty of Waitangi was signed. . They arrived at Port Nicholson (now known as Wellington) expecting an established settlement, and found the rugged hills and empty beaches. . Why would I go on Twitter? Maybe ...

Mad Young Thing: February 2010
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, 26 February 2010. The post that caused a thousand tweets. So I already had posterous. Set to autopost to Twiter, now Ive added my Blogger blog. Both of which, if I recall rightly, also auto tweet (say that five times fast). So this post should probably appear in my twitter timeline at least 3 times. Which is probably annoying. Dont mind me, thinking out loud. . 1 Think about why you would want your content to be on many different platforms. Isnt variety the spice of life? 3 Be nice to your parents.

Mad Young Thing: October 2010
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 October 2010. Apologies for the multiple postings. Yesterday I posted the same photo approximately 12 times! Sorry about that, it's to do with the intricate content plumbing that I have set up with my Twitter and Posterous accounts. Twitter said it wasn't posting my picture, but meantime every time I tried to post, it was successfully publishing to Posterous - and here. And a lot of other places! Ah, live and learn. Saturday, 30 October 2010. Friday, 22 October 2010. I like my glasses. Weird t...

Mad Young Thing: I like my glasses
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-like-my-glasses.html
Friday, 22 October 2010. I like my glasses. This is my second week of four-eyedness. My drivers license renewal was a reason to do what I'd needed for probably years. It's a little weird and I got headaches the first week or so, but I'm quickly getting used to it. And the benefits are great, like:. I don't need an HD tv, just seeing it clearly is good enough! I can see people I know on the street (you know, to either greet or avoid ;). What's your glasses story? Sent from my iPhone. Ask me a question.

Mad Young Thing: December 2009
http://madyoungthing.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, 28 December 2009. Mini book review: Great Speeches for Better Speaking. I've just finished reading Great Speeches for Better Speaking by Michael E Eidenmuller (published by McGraw Hill). It's not quite holiday reading, but neither is it a textbook. It's a curated journey Eidenmuller takes you on, through six historical speeches of the 20th century, complete with full recordings. It's an important question, especially in am age where social media gives everyone with an Internet connection, a voice.
