After my Monthus Suckius on personal matters, I am starting to get my head around getting various ongoing projects back on track.
For Junkk.com there is the reuse competition, which I had left woefully to its own devices.
There are still not that many entries, but a few more have come in, and one is, frankly, excellent. And it only just came in.
Hence I have asked for and got permission for another extension of a month from the Guardian's organisers. And will try and promote it more.
In complement, and with luck soon, we will also be improving the Junkk.com website with a few new features, added at the same time as trying to sort out some persistent glitches. Frustratingly, these latter seem to pop up without warning, rhyme or reason and are as hard to cure as they are impossible to predict.
And to share all this I will try and get the next newsletter out early July, and will be using a new improved creation system from dotmailer to do so.
And I will also be be trying to relight the fire under RE:tie. The international patents are well underway, so a major sales push is needed.
But as money is now really tight, I have to be even more careful, and ruthless.
A few days ago I mentioned a post that highlighted a website called quirky.
It looks fun. But so do many others. The trick is to try and guess the ROI on this potential avenue to....what?... more PR?...investors? ...an audience? It looks cute and slick, and that's the danger of the internet. There might only be six people using or viewing it.
