Web and social media dad bloke
web stuff... my stuff... dad stuff
web stuff... my stuff... dad stuff
Web stuff excites me... I ♥ discovering, sharing, connecting and creating the web.
My stuff is what I create... photos, videos, thoughts, ideas and actions.
Dad stuff matters... because fatherhood matters to all dads, mums and kids.
I focus on
- Core projects Dad Info, Odadeo.com and Tweetlet.com (for mums too!)
- Bits and pieces publishing, presenting, writing, advice and consulting
- New developments websites and tools, networking, sharing and creating
I've just started blogging... It'll probably be about combination of the above :)
I use Sweetcron for my site - it pulls in my open social media feeds from the web.
I live and work in Cardiff UK with my son Cole half the week and the fish full time.
