The Media Blog: Have you noticed there are no new platforms that have emerged this year?

This just occurred to us the other day. Think about it: What new media platform has emerged this year? It’s remarkable because of the talk about social media domination, the breaking down of entry barriers, the immense opportunity available to one-(wo)man media armies, the expansion of value yada yada yada. But if anything, that has... Read More

The Media Blog: Zikoko just launched a new content platform called Formation, and… uhm…

You know already that we like Zikoko. Someone on the team said ‘liked’, which is a way of saying he thinks something has gone missing, but that’s a matter for another day.

The Media Blog: Big Cabal’s Osarumen Osamuyi is moving up in the world

In another life, many many moons ago, it would almost be inconceivable that we would be here writing about the ‘big career moves’ of a below-25-year-old whose career in the media, or in anything significant, is barely a year old. Tell me about how drastically the world has changed. Osarumen Osamuyi, the engineering graduate from... Read More
