Great talk from Sharon O’Dea: By moving information and services online, successful companies enable their staff to work from any location, and almost any device, so that work becomes what you do, not where you go. In this session, learn…
More great stuff from Ken Robinson.
Apparently, not everyone has a smartphone! News to me. Anyway, the Dumb Store is potentially very exciting, I think. Apps for ‘dumb’ phones – ie those that have limited ability to access the internet and the web. They can be…
Today my new online course, successful digital engagement, kicks off over at School of Digital. I’m excited, and nervous. I’ve not done something like this before. I’m pretty sure it should work, from my experience working at Learning Pool and all the reading…
Reading some of the coverage of Instagram's change in their terms of service, you'd have thought a murder had been committed. Or maybe that the world was about to end.

I think it's useful to always remind yourself of the tools you use regularly in your own activity, particularly if you spend time designing sites, systems and platforms for others to use.
Anyway, hit 'Read more' to see the list.
We recently helped Breckland Council and South Holland District Council work a bit better together by building them a shared, social intranet called The Place.
Today the Chief Executive of both councils, Terry Huggins, had a piece in on the Guardian's website talking about it all.
I've just come across Clinked - a new online collaboration platform that might be a useful competitor to the likes of Huddle, Basecamp and Yammer.
