Tech and start-up PR freelance. Not a dad yet (seems like essential details on Twitter). Like tech, marketing, and cool innovations.

My heart beats a little faster than usual. Today marks a new and very important step in my career as I launch my own activity as a PR & communications freelancer, after twelve years in agencies. More on LinkedIn and my website https://t.co/lV7JJJQ5I0 https://t.co/6OQDb9pLjy

Been a while since I'd heard an inspiring answer in a press conference.

[stranger @strangerous10]

Marcia Langton responds to journalist who asks why they expect the Voice to make a difference when previous bodies have not?
Langton: “There’s no evidence to suggest that they didn’t work”
With a deep emotional drive, she goes on to educate on “The Truth” [1/2]

Confirmed several more "phantom" auctions, where real estate agents list a property on Domain as going to auction when they have nearly no genuine intention of auctioning it. This isn't illegal but at minimum, it's certainly a misleading practice. #auspol #Australia

On the same topic: where are the VCs? "It seems odd to me that you would take a very risky asset class and make it even more risky by not engaging with those companies in a way that actually gives the founders an opportunity to win." https://t.co/S4wOCuxsFn

Am I the only one annoyed with this new trend at work? People reviewing and adding comments to a doc you sent them, but not letting you know when they're done.

[Sebastien Meunier @LeSebMeunier]

@nytimes I can't believe this is NOT a joke 🫠🥲

[Sebastien Meunier @LeSebMeunier]

Good. Too many toxic people. But wouldn't mind a little uplift in customer services in Australia either. Too many times I have to deal with moody staff in hospitality or retail.

80% of people who have media interviews enjoyed the experienced. Although less confident, women are as willing as men, but unfortunately still underrepresented.

[The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand @ConversationEDU]

Journalists are facing more scrutiny and criticism than ever about their interviewing techniques.

However, new research suggests giving news interviews is generally a positive experience, according to @kathryn_shine (@CurtinUni). https://t.co/nbcelRJevn
