Free and open forum for Devon and Cornwall businesses

Today, we kicked off G2B@ networking - an idea that Clare, William Nel-Barker and I had a while back. There are lots of different networking organisations and groups in the UK with a wide variety of ways of doing things. But, after a couple of years of sampling most of what was on offer, we still hadn’t found anything that worked for us. We’d experienced every shade of approach and seen just about every kind of excess too: ego, cult of personality, machismo, sleaze, in-fighting, scamming, dog-fighting, xenophobia and mysogyny to name but a few.

All we wanted when we started ‘mu:kau was to network with interesting people in an open, respectful and accountable environment. So that’s all G2B@ is. It stands for ‘good to be at’ networking.

6.00am Saturday

I was listening to Donna Papacosta’s ‘Trafcom News’ podcast early Saturday morning and emailing her to comment on an episode of the podcast titled ‘Audio is Not the Poor Cousin of Video’.

What’s great about this medium is the sequence of events:

Wake up, can’t go back to sleep

Listen to Donna’s podcast

Feel the urge to comment, go grab the iBook

Send email and feel part of the show…

Take picture with phone to sum it up
