Blogging was never my specialty… until I used Wordpress to develop a blog for a client.
Wordpress is a Blog Tool and Weblog Platform.
Nowadays I love it! I wish I had more time to blog. I have a lot to say! :)
Back to the point… the new very much expected version of Wordpress 2.5!
I have just downloaded and installed my first version… I am so excited! Love to learn about new technologies and its updates.
What’s in it?

The word ’social’ has several meanings in the Oxford English Dictionary. The social in ’social media’ most likely refers to meaning number three: “relating to or designed for activities in which people meet each other for pleasure.” The keyword there is ‘meet’. Like chimpanzees and ants, humans are social creatures (see meaning number four: “breeding or living in colonies or organised communities”), and our social bonds are cemented by face-to-face meetings.

Have you ever been invited to an incredibly famous fine dining restaurant to accompany a group of disgustingly attractive, frighteningly decent and friendly people for a divine meal sloshed down with lashings of Chateau Petrus?
No, me neither.
But I bet if you were, you’d go for it, wouldn’t you? Eh?
You could leave that 12 day old tub of caked over houmos for another day, don both your least-dirty Marks & Spencer suit and a well-practiced rigid smile and go for it.
Well read on because a similarly incredible opportunity (’ONCE IN A LIFETIME, LOSERS!’) has just come up…
Join us - the bold sailors on the good ship Nixon McInnes - in our latest voyage into territories reasonable well known but in need of a little extra investigation: ONLINE SOCIAL NETWORKING.
(Yes, yes. We agree that online social networks are more cliched and more frequently misunderstood than TomKat, but we also know that there exist unexplored islands of remarkable brilliance and wonder in amongst the oceans of vaporous hype.)
It’s just an experiment, so don’t panic. Because we specialise in the latest social media innovations kinda thing we know that experimentation is a big and important part of what we do. That way our clients get tried and tested, not ‘first thing we thought of’.
If you’re serious about learning more then you must do the same - so join us, today, at our new online social network.
It’s incredibly easy to join (very very very fast and painless) thanks to the remarkable web application we’re using for our experiment - Ning, of which there will be much more commentary later.
Join the fun here. We’re gonna make some waves :)

The new age of online marketing success is often about sharing your knowledge and personalising your offering.
With this in mind we invited some of our lovely clients and friends along to Brighton Marina on Friday to share our words of wisdom on the topic and indeed learn about their own experiences and top tips.
Online marketing is transforming the balance and focus of marketing budgets all over the world and if yours doesn’t reflect that then “Come on - catch up!”
We got togeather at the Alias Hotel Brighton and talked through the commercial benefits, core principles and some great examples of business blogging, online social networking, podcasting, killer content, email marketing and online branding.
We got excited, shared some knowledge and helped some great people identify ways to kick new life into their own online strategy.
To see us all in action have a look at our photos on our Flickr account.
If you missed out and would like to come along to future events then drop me an email at jo@nixonmcinnes.co.uk - we’d love to see you.
