Today while checking out the International Association of Athletics Federations website, I noticed a little link to an “Accessible Version”. For a start I think it is hilarious that the main website is not considered accessible and they need a separate version to do that.

This blog has been on hiatus for a while now, since November last year to be more precise. So I thought anybody who is good enough to read what I have to say deserves a bit of an explanation about where I have been all this time. There are a few different reasons, let me run them down for you …

One of the things that has long amazed me about Japanese blogs is the use of blog widgets or “blog parts” as they are referred to in Japanese. Blog widgets are small snippets of code you can insert into your blog to create fun, interesting, useful or just plain strange tools into your blog pages.

Recently we, as a collective internet populace, have become very good at republishing our comments, images, and other life streaming features to multiple platforms.
Our status updates are the most common, with Twitter (and for the early adopters, FriendFeed) being the easiest and most common to republish elsewhere. Some of the common places to push your [...]

OK, this post is a lot less dirty than the title.
Last week, Tessa Sterkenburg, who I know through my writing for The Next Web, launched The Next Speaker, a business to manage and represent speakers talking about new media, technology, innovation or just motivational topics based in Holland.
I was very happy to have been one [...]
