About

I help people to get done the things that they want to do. I can help most with building rich relationships online and off- using social forms of media such as blogs, podcasts, wikis and videoblogging.

I’m always interested in talking to new people about how I can help. Call me on +44 (0)79191 82825

  2. Dear Lloyd,

    we are 23ideas, an recently founded innovation agency. One of our first projects is 23business. For this project we will visit as many conferences and business events as possible and presenting interviews and insights to those who are interested. All this via a Vimeo Channel and a Website, Facebook and Twitter. Until now we have been at Sime Conference 2009 in Stockholm and hopefully we will be able to report from LeWeb 09 and then DLD, Picnic, NextWeb, Lift and others in 2010.

    Contentwise we are dealing with topics like internet business, mobile business, entrepreneurship and many others. We just started filling our Vimeo channel with content, but you can be sure that there is more stuff to come. We would be happy if you find something for your Blog that you are interested in or that you want to report about. And of course, we need some buzz and awareness as the brand 23business is not widely known yet 😉

    Watch: http://vimeo.com/channels/23business

    We hope that there is something in it for you and for further questions do not hesitate contacting us.

    With best regards,

    Matthias.
