Pip Pip Social

Finished the December and January campaigns for one of our favourite clients today. Signed off and sealed. There’s something really satisfying about our relationships with our pals we work with. It’s always cooperative and friendly and constructive. Never angry or shouty.

Today!

Video edits.
Presentation.
Pitch to a new client.

All on three hours sleep.

Onwards!

Hopefully Bluesky will continue in the spirit that we have seen this week with lots of new users. As Barry Glendenning said, it’s like moving into a new house and everyone is taking their shoes off and washing up straight away, and with a bit of luck, we can all continue in that. Preach over.

There’s a Simpsons joke where Marge says “Fox turned into a hardcore porn channel so slowly, I barely noticed”. Twitter became a horror show that it is, and we all noticed, but we just accepted bots, insults and terrible adverts and bad faith arguments, and in the end, it was hard to open the app.

Within a few hours, this has gone up to two thousand. Hurray!

Bluesky showing that you can go viral with cool/funny/interesting content. Twitter/X was suppressing anything with a link, anything it didn’t like, and pushing you to the bottom if you didn’t pay for a tick. And to a huge percentage of people, the brand is toxic and giving them money is just bad.

First really nice Bluesky milestone - got a client up to 1,000 followers on here, so that’s lovely. (They had 200,000 followers on Twitter, but it’s still a success!) #socialmedia #creatives

Right, yes, hello, good morning. Been editing videos for one of our lush clients this morning, and this afternoon is a podcast. You?
