This week I have learned:

  • that a chance conversation over coffee with someone in San Francisco can be the starting point of a series of actions that ends up with my dad going viral on Twitter. No one saw that coming.
  • the peaks and troughs of account management are bizarre. Weeks pass quietly and then things emerge on everything, everywhere, all at once.
  • it’s funny how a different configuration of buttons and dials can dramatically change how one interacts with software. Took delivery of a new controller this week (an MPC Studio), and it’s changed how I think of soft synths. It also allows me to reminisce about the fun I had with an MPC2000 back in the 1990s.
  • constructing workshops is something that comes naturally after many years of practice.
  • it’s always nice to spend a bit of time on the East Anglian coast.
  • of all the business disciplines, is marketing the one most misunderstood by those who are outside?
  • it was nice to think back to my days at Imagination during one of the coffees this week.
  • getting to coffee 100 is going to be emotional.
  • football season starts tomorrow. Meh.

Next week: wrapping up for holidays
