I thought i'd try and get a quick post in before the year is out and make It three for the year.
Whilst this clearly isn't a left foot, right foot then header 'perfect' hat trick it's still one in which I can continue the football theme for a bit longer...
At kick off I flew out the blocks banged in an early brace (Jan & Feb i think). Since those opening minutes I've been quiet. 'Hardly had a kick' they'd say on MOTD but, at the crucial time with the clock ticking down I'm stepping up to smash home an absolute screamer!
Well... Not really but there is at least a tiny bit of seasonally relevant mobile material I can muster up in these dying embers of 2012.
After their bath my kids wanted to watch a video on my phone... I went for my trusty steel only to find the silver bullet removed... YouTube was nowhere to be seen, i then remembered it had been removed a few weeks back for no apparent reason (tinkering)
Anyway... With YouTube installing i had a quick look at other apps published by google inc and realised Blogger was literally the only one not installed on my phone....
It is now an here we are and here is this post. .
It's like a Tarantino film is it not? Mind bending.
Laters...
With an app at the ready will I be more frequent in 2013?
Here I look at what's going on in my world, mainly digital with a focus on mobile. I may veer from the path. That's just how wild it gets.

Bloody Social Media... again
Having checked out my GA it appears the last post was by far the most well received ever. Therefore I thought strike while the iron is super hot (about 3 weeks I think) and quickly share some of the perils of this here social thing.
I work for a company, we sell pizzas, we are a franchise business. Well, earlier today one of those franchisees sent me a cool thing that Macy's are doing on Facebook and asked if it was something replicable in the UK - I'm looking into it.
In principle its pretty simple and neat. You see the offer they put in a status post, you click 'get offer' they email you the offer - boom! Great marketing, nice way of making that very sociable communication a direct one.
The thing is, I thought I'd have a play with it myself. So, I went to Macy's page saw the post in question and clicked on it...
Thing is, being all about the social and the sharing those pesky facebook people immediately share the fact I've interacted with the Macy's ad to my wall and I had some nice people make comments about the nice shoes I was never going to buy from Macy's (don't worry, I'm still cool because I styled it out by pretending I was a transsexual - what a winner eh?)
Point being?
1) It's a good reminder that people spend a lot of time on facebook in fact all the time (first response was in seconds)
2) Facebook has some seriously awesome marketing opportunities in its platform - imagine if I really was buying those shoes?
3) It's always worth considering what you're doing in the social space and who might see it!!

Bloody social media
So, I've just seen this new flavors.me thing and because I'm cool and awesome and also awesomely cool I wanted to put all my social profiles in their so my Mum can keep track of how cool I am all in one place.
Problem being, it appears my blog is exceptionally low in both quality and quantity so what better reason to update it than a post about quite literally nothing other than perhaps how this bloody social media has made us all a bunch of people who share stuff, some of it is superb, some of it is genuinely inspiring and some of it is quite literally dross.
Point being, quite literally that. I've created a post of dross so, if someone were to find me on flavors.me they'd see the awesome range of social content I create and be inspired to share, create, converse and all that other social stuff.
Love it.
