Nice People Make The World Go Round

Had a great meeting on Friday 13th (of all days) with entrepreneur and racing driver, Simon Dolan.
And I have to say, what a genuinely nice guy, very friendly and down to earth, it was a very productive day for me. Very happy with the results that came from it, and has given me the motivation - through all this cold weather - to kick myself into gear.
I'll be the first to admit, i've been a little lazy lately, but we all have our down points, no..?
So it's Monday afternoon, sun is shining, and i'm tapping away in the Uni library - let's kick this machine into gear, we've got a long journey ahead of us.

The Big Exquisite Corpse Experiment

My friend Floyd Hayes from Cunning, NY has just launched a new project, TheBigExquisiteCorpseExperiment, where you upload a body part of your own, a friend, a colleague, or even a pet, on to the site, to be used in an online mix-up slide show / random body part generator. You have to see it for yourself, it's great!

Please upload your own body parts and pass on the link.

Could You Blag £1,000,000?

Got introduced to this brilliant website by a friend of mine recently - I think the concept is amazing!
Check it out: www.blagamillion.com

A group of friends, spending their summer trying to blag a million pounds in various ways to try and raise money to potentially set up an independent fund to in order to back wild 'risque' projects from talented young filmmakers, artists and fruitcakes!
It's a brilliant cause, and looks like they've had a lot of fun in the process.
I won't ruin the ending and tell you whether they managed it or not, but there are lots of funny videos to check out on there showing the different things they have done in order to raise the funds, such as the smallest music festival ever, and their potential number one single they have recorded with famed Chicken Man from Britain's Got Talent.

Please check it out and enjoy! It's a great idea with a great cause behind it.
