Adventure
While in Blackwood this weekend, we drove into Trentham for a visit.
There was a group of motorcyclists in town, and I struck up a conversation with one (who was riding a very nice touring BMW). He was preparing [...]
I was tweeting from a presentation on storytelling on Tuesday. Shawn Callahan of Anecdote led the session, and listed the key elements of an effective story:
Simple – It doesn’t have to be sophisticated – you hear it once and you get it.
Unexpected – It throws you a curve ball that you weren’t expecting.
Concrete – It has names [...]
Can’t believe I forgot to post to the blog for all of November! At least I have something new to post now…
The Government is hosting the “Realising Our BroadBand Future” forum on 10 and 11 Dec, to map the applications and business models that will thrive in Australia’s high speed broadband future.
Thanks to John Wells [...]
I have been following the “TOTO challenge” for a while now. ActionAid Australia is sending Australian bloggers to remote parts of the world. Why? To help give poverty a voice:

Here’s mine:
Knowledge, communication, storytelling, language, learning, social media; with a dash of Zen. Oh, and consultancy and a [...]
Clancy of the Knowledge Flow
I had written him a snail-mail, which I had, for want of email
Address, sent to where I met him in Canberra, years ago.
He was sharing when I knew him, so I sent the letter to him,
Just “on spec”, addressed as follows: Clancy of The Knowledge Flow.

On my way to this year’s actKM Conference.
Should be a fun couple of days! While I am only booked in to this one as a regular attendee, I am also taking part in the activity on Tuesday night – the “Collaboration Cabaret”. All will be revealed in due course!
I expect that I will be tweeting [...]
@SilkCharm (aka Laurel Papworth) has picked up on a certain organisation that is about to spend a large amount of money on marketing. This led her to the idea of establishing The Twitter Agency.
SilkCharm has 1,670 followers. That makes a pretty powerful, well connected agency! (Hey – I have 59 followers myself!)
So there [...]
