Sydney Blog party, Friday 12 September 2008

Posted by John Lampard on Wednesday, 3 September, 2008 to the events subset

Let's get networking and socialising. A drinks gathering for bloggers in Sydney is on in The Arthouse Hotel's Gallery Bar next Friday, 12 September, from 5pm. A contraction of the words "blog" and "meet". The word "Blogmeet" is thought to have come into common usage around 2006, when Homo sapiens sapiens came to the realisation that their shared habit of reading and commenting on a blog, or Weblog, could ...

Bloggers verses Journalists: it’s all in our heads

Posted by John Lampard on Thursday, 17 July, 2008 to the comment subset

A great wrap-up of proceedings from the Future of Media Summit by Stephen Collins. Among other things, the consensus that the "split" between professional journalists and bloggers is "artificial", emerged. The false dichotomy of the schism between the professional journalists, journalism educators and academics and the world of new media, particularly as embodied by bloggers prevails. It seems largely perpetuated by a somewhat chauvinistic attitude on the part of ... Read full entry

Bloggers of Sydney Meetup Group

Meet and support other local Webloggers face to face instead of just online, particularly those who blog as a hobby rather than for potential profits.

Busted

Posted by John Lampard on Wednesday, 27 June, 2007 to the disassociated subset

I've just added a couple more photos to my Flickr page, which I snapped while making an unplanned stop in the Sydney suburb of Glebe last Sunday. I'd stopped (yes - pulled over - no contravening of local laws against using a mobile whilst driving here!) to take a phone call from a friend who is in Europe, so as to end ... Read full entry

Counsel

Posted by John Lampard on Wednesday, 20 June, 2007 to the blogs subset

Despite the name, Career Ramblings isn't a blog entirely focussed on career development, and Californian based co-producers John Anthony and Jane May, also offer an array of what they refer to as "life in general" articles. While there is all sorts of useful information on career related matters ranging from giving your CV or resume a makeover, writing cover letters, help with completing job applications, ...

Mogul

Posted by John Lampard on Tuesday, 19 June, 2007 to the blogs subset

Last October over 200,000 people visited the blog of Internet and technology entrepreneur John Chow. That's about 7000 visitors a day and the question any aspiring, or even established, blogger would be asking themselves after seeing such stats, is how? How does one person drum up that sort of interest in their blog, especially when, if you take a closer look at the web stats graph I just ... Read full entry

Links for 15 June 2007

Posted by John Lampard on Friday, 15 June, 2007 to the disassociated subset

Combining the creative with the technical. You'll see a lot of that around here! Wordpress guy: since disassociated.com is all newly wordpressed I thought I'd point out this resource of all things wordpress. If there's some functionality you want on your WP blog then there's bound to be a WP plugin that can do the job. And Wordpress guy a.k.a. Steve is pretty adept at tracking down those ...
