No posts for ages, then two in a day. Like buses. This was too good not to capture in some form.

Great info, and lovely presentation fodder from Pingdom. Hat tip to @prgeek for the heads-up.

Brilliant. A very handy 'how to' on setting up Google Analytics for a Facebook Fan page. Bit fiddly, but better to have all those metrics in one place.

A quick video interview with yours truly by the ever-charming inbound marketing sage, Murray Newlands.

This took place on the Friday of Social Media Week, London i.e. the last day. After 28 events.

I don't remember most of that day, let alone this interview, so it's nice to have some kind of record.

OK, so they mis-spelt my name, but always nice to be asked to come on the tellybox and have a chat. This time an interview with Andrea Catherwood about Facebook and EU Information Society and Media Chief, Vivane Redding who fired a warning shot across the social networking giant's boughs over privacy.
