Time for a quick roundup of some good things I've stumbled across.
First and foremost, the wonderful Marcus Brown (aka Sacrum) has finally launched his idea and innovation company, The Ides of March. It's a fantastic (and much needed) idea for a business so go and visit. Worth visiting alone for this example / story on how to take on Starbucks. Good luck Marcus.
Second, my co-worker Aaron has finally got around to starting a blog. Early days but you can read The Infamous Persuader of Culture here.
Finally, Paul Isakson has a link to a fantastic set of photos in urban spam free Sao Paolo. The flickr set by Tony de Marco is here.
You hero. Just hope it works, otherwise Rob Campbell will break my neck.
Cheers Gareth.

Thanks for the mention, Gareth. Best wishes on the presentation at the AAAAs conference this week. Wish I could be there to see it.

I was going to say that Gareth had inadvertently 'let the cat out the bag' by saying Sacrum and Marcus were infact one and the same ... but given Marcus has come on here and basically said that [by not saying anything], this whole comment is pointless.
Bum.
Mind you, I do like the idea people should be 'afraid' of me given I was always the guy Mum's liked and friends felt could take their 'girlfriends' home without any fear of dodginess.
Nice stinks ... I want people to be afraid.
And Gareth - following my Mighty Midgit 'chat', I could be in NYC soon which means if you're there, I'd love to buy you more tea.
Hope all is well ...
