Apps on Review: The New Spotify for Android

Well you really never know what you're going to get week by week from me I suppose and this week is no different.

So, I'd like to take a look at an app that has been causing me great pleasure every time I've used it since it's most recent major update. Spotify.

Why a community centric organisation should use Google+

This blog will explicitly refer to use within Students' Associations however it should be appropriate for any non-profit looking to learn about the people it represents or even any business wanting to know its customers with a little tweaking.
Is Google's latest Social Experiment just what you need?

Summer Time

So I think it's safe to say that the Summer Holidays have well and truly kicked off at Abertay - sun burn and working in a bar that was so hot there should be legislation saying I can't work in it included.

Never fear however I won't be jetting off to some hot country to forget all about Constitutional Amendments, Social Networking and the horrors that await in HLSL (it's not that bad really) Work beckons and so my summer will be spent working bar as ever, working as an entertainments/audio technician type person as ever and preparing the Union's social media presence for the coming year.

On top of this - as I am a glutton for punishment, I'll be moving flat and doing a couple of personal projects which I'll gladly share sometime in the near future I hope.

Anyway, that's this note concluded normal service will resume next weekend hopefully!

Brian, out.

Is Google+ a failed project or simply looking ahead?

Admittedly, most technology blogs and sites I follow have yet to comment on how (un)successful Google+ has been with a notable exception or two but you can feel it in the air, certainly among my friends (most of whom are reasonably technically proficient being on a programming based course.) Yet, I feel they are missing the point... Missing what it is that Google+ is really about.
