Friday, 8 July 2011. 7am: Social Media's Finest Hour. There's something about 7am. It's at that time when I am still in bed with the Today. Programme on BBC Radio 4 sounding in the background and the smell of freshly brewed coffee indicating its presence on the bed-side table. However the start of the 7am news usually causes me to sit up and reach for my smart phone, which has been charging-up nicely through the night. So what do I see first?

Thursday, 31 March 2011. Email: Say It In The Subject - and take part on Friday 15th April! I'd like you to take a look at a section of my email inbox showing incoming email subjects:. Taking a look at the subject list above - what are these emails about? Which ones allow me to get a good understanding of the content without spending time opening them - especially when I get more that 200 emails to my work email address a day and have to prioritise opening so that it doesn't become a full time occupation?

Thursday, 6 October 2011. Thank you, Steve Jobs, for inspiring me so much. I join many of my colleagues in being saddened to hear the news of the death of Steve Jobs last night. Now we have the situation where many senior managers and directors in Tesco are using an iPad to do their job. Indeed a few have shunned their laptop in preference for using their iPad! Thank you, Steve, for being one of the greatest innovators and inspiring me so much. A simple apple.com home page honours Steve Jobs today. As on...

Friday, 18 November 2011. Tesco demonstrates augmented reality with Kishino. As you have no doubt gleaned from the media by now, Tesco is taking augmented reality seriously as a great way of bringing a great experience of our products and services to customers.
