Column: Starting a Social Network

Have you ever thought about starting your own social network? It's a great way to connect with people with similar interests or with potential customers.

Also, with the group features on sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, you can test whether there is any demand for your idea for free!

I wrote a column in the Journal recently explaining how to get started. Check it out: Start your own social network site.

If We Can You Can

I was honoured to be shortlisted for the If We Can You Can Challenge 2009! I was invited to pitch wishli.st to a panel of judges and answer their questions.

Unfortunately I wasn't selected as a finalist but we've got a few friends among the finalists so if you have a moment to email in your votes please consider the following:

Emma Reilly - iYosh
Mark Easby - Better Brand Agency
Rob Earnshaw - The Casting Website

Good luck guys!
