Ramblings with a hint of creativity
A bit of a delayed post here but one worth posting. How i got involved i do not have the foggiest, but involved i did get.
Becomming a bit of the Twitter addict recently I found out from @JasonBradbury that there was going to be an secret event happening with the title #gadgetvader and all we were told is that its a street art, gadget related event and it was going to be filmed for Channel 5′s The Gadget Show. Feeling up for a bit of something random I decided I was going to go. I also decided to help out with the promotion with the usual dose of RTing a dicussion (in case you are not aware of what RT is it means Retweeting someone else’s message). Not only the RTing and discussion, I also offered to Jason Bradbury that I would build a Facebook event to build yet more awareness of the event
So with a time/date and fellow Facebook and Twitter folk set it was time for all of us to meet at 10pm at Speakers Corner in Hyde Park. I was armed with my Blackberry and Twitter helping people find their way there and some very bright shoes so people could see where i was. What struck me was the amount of people who knew who I was the another more amusing fact that people thought that I knew what was going on and that I was involved with The Gadget Show.
So what was the event you ask…..well watch for yourself….
