Mobile World Congress on ipadio
When you think of Spain, you usually think of sunny weather, sandy beaches and relaxing. If you’re a history-buff, you may also think of the civil war or it’s position as the first colonial nation in the Americas. But what you might not associate is mobile phones.
The Mobile World Congress (MWC) trade show has been [...]
Guest Blog: Social Media – friend or foe?
A guest blog by ipadio CEO Dr Mark Smith, reflecting on his paper that was delivered to the Melcrum UK Social Media Conference last Wednesday.
I spoke this week at the Social Media for Internal Communications conference run by Melcrum. The event attracted over 150 delegates from some of the largest companies in the UK – [...]
Vancouver 2010 from the citizen’s perspective
The 2010 Winter Olympics kicks off later today in Vancouver, Canada. It’s perhaps the first Games to truly embrace social media in the proper way – after all nearly everyone is carrying around a camera with them these days, so everyone is a potential journalist. The games’ organisers have responded to this by allowing people [...]
Read More....Melcrum Social Media Conference
Yesterday, I spent the day at the Melcrum Social Media Conference with my colleagues Mark, Giles and David. We were there to talk social media, and hopefully make a bit of a noise again.
It was an interesting day of lectures on the role of social media in a business context – whilst many of us [...]

You might have read in the news over the weekend about the anti-homeopathy protest by the 1023 campaign. On Saturday morning around 300 homeopathy ’sceptics’ around the country all took at ‘overdose’ to try to demonstrate how homeopathic remedies don’t actually contain any active ingredients.
Anyway, excellently, ipadio is home to some recordings of people who [...]
Live from the Monte Carlo Rally!
Debra Searle is a remarkable woman – she’s rowed across the Atlantic, sailed across the Southern Ocean, won Dragon Boating medals and has biked across mountaintops – all this and she’s still had time to present a string of TV programmes, write a couple of books and pick up an MBE for her troubles!
Anyway, now [...]
Melcrum interview series now complete
For the past few weeks, Abi Signorelli has been interviewing some of the key people who are going to be at Melcrum’s UK Social Media Conference next month, and last night she wrapped up the final interview before the conference.
What’s cool is that the interviews were interactive – Abi solicited questions from those listening live [...]
Read More....iPad? That name sounds like something else…
You can’t fail to have noticed that yesterday Apple unveiled a new device – the iPad. I can’t speak for the rest of the company, but I think it’s pretty interesting – not least because it sounds a bit like ‘ipadio’ – in fact, we actually own the domain name ipad.io. We use it for [...]
Read More....The British Red Cross are in Haiti too
You might have read a couple of days ago about all of the charities that are using ipadio to report back from Haiti – we’re now up to our fifth charity using our services to update people back home and all over the world on the progress of the relief effort. The British Red Cross [...]
