How to make a protest sign... (Google Year in search 2017)

The 2017 retrospective films are coming. It must be Christmas.

They missed 'How to pay your taxes'.

Blog posts in 2016 that got more than 4 views...

In no particular order these were the posts that were viewed the most in 2016.

If you don't look good on a mobile you don't exist... That one where I state the obvious again.

What giving away £1,000 means to me... That one where I talk about how amazing it is to give away £1,000.

Alternative sources of inspiration... A little rant about ignoring gurus.

You are not the audience… Another rant.

Be the change you want to see... A collection of videos from Bernie Sanders that made me want to join his revolution. That whole thing didn't turn out well.

In it. Not at it. Some post #IFC2016 thoughts... Some thoughts from IFC 2016.

I excluded MobileMagic posts as they seem to get a large volume of traffic...

Happy New Year and see you on the other side.

What a year...

Facebook's 2016 in review video...

Not any more joyous than Google's tbh.

Love is out there...

I'm a sucker for a year in review video. And the Google one is usually very good. This year it's brilliant. Have a watch.

2016 was a year filled with too much pain, hate and despair.

So we need a plan.

We all need to do more.

We need to work harder.

We need to motivate more people to take action.

We have to inspire more people to fight for what they believe to be right.

We need to amplify the voices that won't sit back and wait for others to take a lead.

We need to organise ourselves and others to create communities and movements that are impossible to be ignored.

It's down to us.

Enjoy your break.

Take a pause.

Collect your energy.

And come back in 2017 ready to kick ass.

A YouTube year in review

As you may know.

I love a good year in review video.

But I'm not gonna fib. Most of the cultural references in this one flew a mile over my head...

This one from Facebook is much better.

It's end of year video time...

Facebook have made one.

2013 - A Year in Review from Facebook Stories on Vimeo.

So have YouTube.



And Save the Children...



Greenpeace's is the best...



I haven't made one. Happy New Year.

Mobile 2012 review

Mobile in 2012 reviewed. Some great stats and a very American voice over.

Headline stat for me, data usage doubled in 2012 from 2011. That is incredible.

It's that time of year again - 2012 according to Google

Google have just released their year in review video. Always worth a look.



Here's the 2011 review.

Greenpeace do good year in review video

I'm loving this 12 month review video from Greenpeace that I was emailed a few days ago. Very simply put together it shows just how many campaigns they ran in 2011.

If you've seen any other great supporter videos, it would be great if you could post links in the comments section below.

Bye bye 2010, hello 2011

I'm not one for looking back, but I found this review of 2010 and thought it was really good. Have a look it's only a minute long.  It strangely made me feel very lucky to do what I do for a living.

Anyway, hello 2011, I just know you are going to be fabulous.
