Apologies to all my wonderful fans out there who have been waiting with baited breath for my latest posting. Today won’t be one of those ranty and arguably incredibly negative posts I normall post. I know I’m a bit of a vain person, but I thought some people might be interested in an update on a few things that everyone’s favourite small firm, Denote, has been up to. I’d love Read More ...

Comments Off on Samsung Commercial Gives Apple a Beating
I guess I’m a bit biased as a Samsung Galaxy SII owner, but I love this ad mocking the Apple early adopter culture. (Relax, I still own 2 Mac computers, an iPod, and an Airport!)
Comments Off on USA is Missing the Global Revolution and We’re Not Much Better
Look at the latest issue from Time Magazine and tell me what’s different about the US version relative to the rest of the world.

I’ll be sure to post info about our sites once they launch…and I’ll check our NDAs to see if we can talk in detail about any of our marketing and communications plans before the campaigns are completed!
Drop me a line and we might even be able to discuss it all in person…in the new year when I have time 😉
Comments Off on You’re Not an Entrepreneur! Embrace it and be Proud!
