Russell Davies

Very Meet, right, and our bounden duty

At the end of September I'm doing a talk about PowerPoint for the members of a fancy club. Not quite sure why. To keep my eye in, mostly.

But since I've got to put the talk together anyway it seems a shame not to share it with more people, so I thought I'd try an online version for all y'all.

It's going to be at 7PM (UK time) on October 1st and will last about 40 minutes. It'll be in Google Meet (or whatever they call it).

If you'd like to join me please get yourself a (free) ticket.

Printing out the internet again

I love messing about on the borders between print and digital. It used to be a thing. 

So I'm going to do an experiment with and see if I can do anything interesting/worthwhile with it.

In the Not A Good Start department the URL they give you doesn't seem to work as a link so you might need to copy and paste it. Try this: my.stampfans.com/russell-davies

Also, it seems the Stripe configuration is only for US addresses. Hopefully, they'll fix that. Like I say, an experiment.

The plan, right now, is this:

I'm going to spend the rest of the year working out what to write. Once a month. Every month. Starting at the end of September. You can read along if you want. (It'll cost you $3 a month, that's the minimum cost. And it seems they only post to the UK, US and Canada. Sorry)

Then, in January, if it's any good I'll do it properly at some exorbitant rate that'll make me wealthy beyond the dreams of influencers. But if you get in early and subscribe before then you'll probably get some sort of exciting discount.

What could be better?

 

Sponsorship opportunties

I've hesitated to mention this because it seems so unlikely but I'm going to be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October. ("running")

And so, as is the modern way, I now have to ask you to sponsor me. Sorry about that. I'm doing it for Centrepoint, who are a good thing.

(Well, I'm doing it for a complex bundle to midlife crisis reasons, but Centrepoint may as well get some overspill benefit)
