Track Me Around the UK


Everyone that knows me knows that I'm not uber technical but I do like my gadgets and bits of useless internet technology.

A mate has introduced me to BuddyPing. This is a service that you can inform where you are by mobile or tinterweb and it'll show you which of your mate's are nearby or other people that are close.

I've got a mate in mind that could use it for dating purposes but for me it's just something to waste my time looking at.

But I do like taking the odd mobile photo. What you can do with BuddyPing is send a MMS to it and it'll add it to your profile with the exact geo-coordinates. How cool is that? Ok maybe not!

Well if anyone wants to add me my user name is imaginatively "Lee McCoy"

What I'm listening to: Angus & Julia Stone - All of Me

Podcast Review: The Web 2.0 Show

The Web 2.0 Logo
I must admit my first listen to "The Web 2.0 Show" was last week. There are so many podcasts that just sound so unprofessional (sorry Mr SEO) but this podcast was well-polished and informative.

I get bored with some SEO podcasts but am always fascinated with all the widgetry the web 2.0 has bought and this podcast is a great way to hear about other bits and bobs that can make your websites and business better.

The first site/service I was introduced via this podcast was Numly, it's a novel way to combat something that all seo'ers or affiliates will come across at some time or another - plagiarism. Be it imagery, code of content, you simply register it with them and you get a unique key that allows you to "prove" authorship. And I certainly know Kieron has.

So if you've got iTunes you can pick their podcast easily here.
