On the 11 November, I attended the Full Frontal Conference in Brighton. If you’ve followed the Epiphany blog for a while and have a spectacular memory, you’ll remember I attended last year and brought back a wealth of tips and tricks for our web development team. (more…)

You’ve Got Your PR in My SEO
Friday, October 7th, 2011Conferences, SEO, Think Visibility
You know what digital marketing conferences need more of? Robot Wars. I learned this last month when I attended Think Visibility along with a few colleagues from the Epiphany contingency. Think Vis, as it’s affectionately called by the hundreds who storm its doors every six months, is a search conference with a difference. Mostly because organiser Dom ‘The Hodge’ Hodgson likes to put his own wacky flavour on the whole affair. Events range from the aforementioned Robot Wars (minus Craig Charles) to a post-lunch game show involving SEO-themed piñata bashing. Of course, there were real lessons to learn too from the adept array of speakers who graced the two stages. (more…)
The Rediscovery of PepsiCo and Its Social Media Stategy

Earlier this month, I attended a webinar of the TED2011 conference. TED or Technology, Entertainment and Design was founded in 1984, formed to share “ideas worth spreading.” Speakers have included names like Rory Bremner, James Cameron, Seth Godin, Bill Clinton, Richard Dawkins, Bill Gates and so many other influential figures. Attending the TED events is slightly out of my league, as all attendees must apply for membership before being able to buy a ticket for the conference. Standard membership costs a mere $5,200, so whilst usually attendance is only an option for the fortunate few, this year they had webinars worldwide streaming one day of the TED2011 conference. I attended the webinar in Leeds at Old Broadcasting House, and because of the time difference, the screening was from 4pm to midnight. The organisers plied us with a steady stream of coffee and chocolate to keep everyone’s sugar levels high enough to stay to the end.
TED2011 was based around ‘The Rediscovery of Wonder’ with some fantastic speakers like Morgan Spurlock and Bill Gates. Topics discussed included everything from a scientist describing one of nature’s breathtaking surprises, an inventor unveiling a new marvel and an artist revealing her impossibly rich imagination.
