Yeah, baby, we're back! Yes, it's that time of year mobile friends when 100,000 or so of us descend on Barcelona for our annual shindig that is Mobile World Congres...

Yeah, baby, I'm gonna be back one more time with team #SwedishBeers. We're heading to #Barcelona for #MWC25 and we're hosting our annual bash for the SEVENTEENTH time! Come on down. Skal!
RSVP required. Info here: swedishbeers.blogspot.com/2025/02/yes-...

That's grifting and a half! I'm not sure how much more eye-rolling my eyes can take 😯

Happy birthday to my old Worcester SYT chum, Rufus @nationaltheatre.org.uk . I hope it's a good 'un!

It's horrifying. Apocalyptic even.

Blimey, it's a bit chilly today! 🥶🧊

I was disappointed to see you that C4 is running this too. I figured you might have something to say about it!

I imagine there has been an increase everywhere. It's utterly depressing and feels like a battle that will never be won.

And Cary Grant

Frank Sinatra

As we celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Devoted and Disgruntled next year, we are looking back at stories that have come out of, shaped and contributed to D&D. What does D&D mean to you? Was there an interesting experience or change that happened because of a D&D event? Share these stories with us!

I was there for press night. It's really good!

If you're out for a Boxing Day walk and spot a memorial bench, be a sweetie and snap a photo of it for openbenches.org

THANKS GANG!

Best Christmas thread every year!

One of the musical theatre whatsapp groups I'm in is going crazy for this today! *Everyone* is posting their list and there's much debate about which list is better!

The Glorious French Revolution (or: Why Sometimes it Takes a Guillotine to Get Anything Done) - a review Helen Keegan, aka technokitten, writes about mobile marketing, mobile advertising, mobile media, apps, AI and emerging technologies

New bloggage: I've published my review of the play I saw tonight technokitten.blogspot.com/2024/11/the-...
TL:DR It's a 90 minute bonkers but brilliant roller coaster ride of the who, what, why and how of the French Revolutions at The New Diorama Theatre. Recommended.

Do you or someone you know use assistive technologies online?

Tools like screen readers, magnifiers, voice control, adaptive keyboards, or customisations (e.g., high contrast, etc)? If so, I’d love to hear from you—especially in you're in the UK.

#Accessibility #AssistiveTech

And it's exactly how my day is going! There is a need for a long lie-in today after theatre last night followed by 3 hours singing Musical Theatre favourites at Overtures @ Louche.

“We need a brand name that has a faint whiff of the exotic, but also conveys a strong sense that we are people in the business of selling garage doors”

That is my hope!

I'm sad to read that @adalovelaceday.bsky.social Live is closing. So much so, I wrote a blog post about it. technokitten.blogspot.com/2024/11/so-l... FWIW, despite the multiple closures of DEI projects in STEM, the work is not done. Well done to @suw.bsky.social for all the hard work put into this.

Steve Wright: Radio 2 presenter dies aged 69 The DJ hosted programmes on the BBC for more than four decades, including his popular afternoon show.

Woah, I was not expecting that news. I was listening to him on the radio too just a few days ago! www.bbc.co.uk/news/enterta...

Rufus Norris picks up the award for Services to UK Theatre at the WhatsOnStage Awards The outgoing director of the National Theatre was celebrated this evening

Three cheers for Rufus! My old buddy from Swan Youth Theatre in Worcester definitely done good. Feeling immensely proud of him. www.whatsonstage.com/news/rufus-n...

It’s not hard to check that neither Tony Blair nor Gordon Brown issued a resignation honours list and it’s not very long ago either
