I have entered the Birmingham to Oxford bike ride this year on the 6th July. I will be hoping to raise £200 for the Jennifer Trust for Spinal Muscular Atrophy. I have setup a page at http://www.justgiving.com/kevinrapley which you can sponsor me through. Please sponsor me for the event and if you are able to come and support please do. I will be having a pint or 2 in Oxford to celebrate the completion.
Hello!
Ok, so the title pretty much sums it up..I want to blog… and I have a few things that i’d like to blog about. The current hype and hoohar regarding this whole social media malarky. How does it relate to me and how can I be involved in both a community and business sense?
I have a lot questions floating around my head which i’m trying to prioritise..Now that is proving pretty tricky as I am in the throws of organising my wedding in May, expecting a baby in August (we, not me!) and just starting out as a pro photographer. But we don’t need to get into the personal stuff here… or at least not right now.
My ramblings tend to dodge and weave through the points i’m trying to make and tangent off, just so you know.. but yeah, the big social media buzz….
I haven’t had chance to meet up and chat with fellow advocates of “the scene” as yet. I follow a few folks on Twitter, I’ve subscribed to blogs that are relevant to me but i’m still to find my feet in the blogging world. I see the potential, so much so, I started a club for folks interested but on a more local level. If there’s one thing I’ve found so far with the current scenario, is that it seems a tad centralised. And I don’t think i’m the only one who is wondering how best we can benefit from these social media tools. Yes we can use them, but for what purpose…what’s the goal here?
I’m gonna stop here because I don’t want to waffle on too much. Sorry if my grammar is a little suspect, it’s just the way it comes out…
