If I blogged, it might look like this.
The demise of Twitter for digital people in the sector I work in has led to a mini resurgence of blogging (or publishing weeknotes if that structure works better for you), and using RSS feeds as method of collating and consuming content (Steve Messer offers a great pace to start).

Great new blog: thepeopleonthetube
I found a great new blog today: thepeopleonthetube.wordpress.com. It highlights one of the things I miss about working/travelling/living in London – the diversity of people. From amazing clothes to knelling face down on the seats, you’ve got to love the people of London. I always say it’s impossible to really stand out in London, as this photo shows…
