Weeknotes seem to be the new compromise between micro-blogging (aka Twitter) and full on blogging. Take a look at Weeknote - it's quite a neat site if you have something to say but don't want to be constrained to 140 characters.
Marc Holmes and others have started adopting a nice approach to their blogs, by including a weeknote every errrrrr.... seven days, so I thought I'd try it too. So here goes for the last week:
- Launched The Race Season on SpotsVStripes - a new campaign as part of Cadbury's sponsorship of London 2012. A very addictive set of Flash games. And a new chocolate bar (the Race Bar - try it and let me know what you think). Here's the TV advert:
- Found an excellent new utility for capturing tall web pages as images.
- On a personal note - last week was officially the first time it cost more than £20 to fill up my motorbike. I'm not complaining too much, considering a bottle of water at Euston station costs £1.50 (that's 20p more per litre than petrol).
- Using Timely more and more for writing loads of tweets in one session, then letting them 'go live' over the course of the week.
- Finished reading Lord Sugar's auto-biography, loving virtually every word of it. Worst of all, I didn't have another book ready to start reading, so I'm back to the Metro each day. Another reason to use the bike more!
- Read a couple of good articles - one which said that in the US most Internet shoppers are pretty affluent; the second is debating whether we're in a second dotcom bubble.
- I got my data back from a faulty hard disk.
- Learnt what the word undecillion means during a session on IPv6. (10 to the power of 36).
- A fair amount of cycle rides (two sessions of 20+ miles) and a 2.5 run around the block. All in the aim of completing this year's London to Brighton quicker than last year and being a stone lighter at the same time.
- Watched that match...
