Branding and CouchDB — May 3rd 2011

Being the Brand by Richard Taylor

Few of us live, work and play in a box. As we go about our daily lives, interacting with others, we are building a personal brand. If you use the social web you are taking that personal brand worldwide.

But what does that mean? Why is it important? How do you control it?

This presentation explores the growing concept of personal branding, makes you think about who you are, how you are perceived & what you stand for and offers some practical tips on "Being the Brand".

Dipping in to CouchDB by Nathan Howell

CouchDB is a database made of the web. It's a JSON-storin’, webapp hostin’, HTTP-talkin’, data-replicatin’, map-reducin’ machine. It's worth considering for many kinds of applications, including, or maybe especially, mobile.
