RIP Cliff
September 26, 2006
It’s been 20 yrs tomorrow that Cliff Burton was tragically killed at the age of 24 in a bus crash in Scandinavia. 20 years! I can’t believe it … I remember that day as if it was last week. A sad day indeed. To say that Cliff was a massive influence on me is an understatement. Cliff was uber cool and a supremo bass guitarist, and his legacy continues to serve and inspire so many individuals.
Bang that head that doesn’t bang!
Out of Action
September 8, 2006The PowerBook is out of action again! Bad: seems the HDD is stuffed :( Good: Apple are replacing under warranty :) Light blogging for a couple of days (is there a any other type?).
Blogger takes on the Ocean
September 8, 2006I promised my good friend Nick that I’d post something about his planned solo yachting adventure. I’ve been providing counsel to him about releasing his ideas into the wild, via his blog and we have been musing on the relative merits of a formal, polished approach to his PR for his project, versus a more open, natural and authentic approach. I genuinely hope that the later approach proves to be right and my faith in the whole cluetrain, and global microbrand meme is upheld.
So, to get things rolling, I wrote a press release for Nick to put up on his site in the hope that I can pay it forward for Nick and generate some traffic and interest in his story. It’s probably a little contrived but I honestly believe that this is a story that will be of interest to others. If you agree with me, please digg it, blog it, help out with some link lovin’ to Nick’s site or contribute in some other way to spreading the word, as far and wide as possible.
