I need to set myself some new challenges with my Welsh learning. The next will be book-related. That means picking one up and reading it. But it needs to be a good one with the right level of challenge. (Previous posts about learning Welsh)

I’m working on an event called The Beach.
It’s a game which will take place in north Wales at the end of July 2010. My co-writers are Bethan Marlow and Rhiannon Cousins and it’s in association with and produced by National Theatre Wales.
If you want to know more, we’ll be blogging about it on the National [...]

My interest is how politics might relate to technology, business and “ordinary” people in the UK – with a particular emphasis on Wales.
As a personal rule I try and stay away from the various personalities and day-to-day machinations, allegiances, squabblings, who wore what clothes and [...]

I’ve tried to avoid talking about blogging itself too much here. As in, I don’t do blogging about blogging. That’s not because there’s no value in that exercise nor because I have any particular aversion to meta (in fact quite the reverse). It’s just that I didn’t think I had anything new to say or [...]

But I refuse [...]

The 7″ record is 60 years old today!
Several have been manufactured since then. I have quite a few.
It is a wonderful format, bigger than a CD and rounder and blacker than a digital audio file.

I’m currently nursing a desire to create a
really useful
game-changing
paradigm-shifting
enormously successful web app.
Bear with me because I know exactly how it will all pan out.
In true web 2 fashion my app would get better as more people joined, harvesting their many billions of click patterns to form the ultimate dataset. So, ideally it would suffer from [...]

Quick intro to my working situation.
Native is a business that helps you with online media, based in Cardiff, Wales. It’s a two-headed partnership, of which the heads are me and Tom Beardshaw.
At the moment we are meeting loads of people for coffee: old friends, new friends, clients, potential clients, people who create stuff, suppliers, “competitors”…
Never [...]
