I love that presentation. It's the one that made me think it'd be a good idea to write a quick blog post about it. 2 hours later it'd turned into this monster list:

I truly am, king of procrastination. Still, there's some gems in the list of lists. Twitter features heavily.

in UK online ad spend jumps 21% despite downturn on The Equity Kicker
Although the New Year ads are usually the haunt of the financial services and travel industries. Hmmm. Might be a chilly January for ad spend.
Having said that, is there any mileage in the idea that etailers will shell out big time before Christmas to try and bolster their pre-Christmas sales? Maybe we'll see a mini-boom online before Christmas.

Danvers, thanks for the kind comments and the video (if I'd known in advance I'd have spent more time in make-up).

in Too much linking to yourself is a bad thing on The Equity Kicker
Good point, well made.
The bigger the media owner, the less likely to link externally?

in Chinwag Digital Mission on The Equity Kicker
Yes, the Digital Mission to NYC is the same week as Seedcamp, but there shouldn't be much of a clash. The criteria for Digital Mission is ideal for companies who have been through Seedcamp and have progressed their idea to the point where they're seeking later stages of funding.
It's also open to more established digital SMEs, who are looking to expand their business into the US.
There's more info about the criteria here:

Thanks Nic, delighted to have you on the advisory board. Also, the target is to take 25 companies on the Digital Mission to NYC, so there's even more opportunity to come along!

in A Kindred Spirit In London on A VC
Glad you're enjoying the start-up scene in London. It's certainly buzzing at the moment. The biggest change has been the development of initiatives like Seedcamp and now, Digital Mission, which provide some more structured help on top of the myriad of networking sessions.

We're working with one of the UK government departments to organise Digital Mission to Web 2.0 Expo in NYC, a trade mission for UK companies looking to expand into the US market or attract US investment. The response has been fantastic, especially as the deadlines for applications are really short.
The connections that these companies make on this NYC trip will no doubt be invaluable and it'll be great to compare the experience between the NYC and London start-up scenes.
