Summertime UK Time Updates Announcements Breaking The Silence

Hi, my name’s Robert Bridge. Is 2021, we’re in the middle of the Summertime here in the UK. In today’s long overdue entry there are a few announcements to make, various updates, nothing too serious. Thanks for reading.

Is been warm, Summertime is nice in the UK, yes the weather has always been unpredictable compared to say Iceland or the Sahara. We have an ice hotel completed in London central, Leicester Square and tourists going local visiting the British Riviera.

We are seeing online secret hotspots around Europe too, reminding us that we are not alone in travel restrictions.

I seen a lovely beach in Eastern block for example the other day on Instagram, really sunny, 100’s of people crammed on the beaches, swimming in the ocean and paragliding in the skies.

It looked really exciting, made me proud of these people capturing all this fun on camera.

Social isolation has for some been the new normal for 16 month’s or more, recommendation’s are now changing and less conflicting messages broadcast on mainstream news.

For many these new rules did not apply.

My point is there is always a way around things, just depends on what you personally believe, who your peers are that you seek to comfort and of course your resource’s available.

Be it relationship’s, work privilege, diplomatic immunity or just lucky in being the right place, at the right time, spur of the moment kind of accuracy.

Me I still very similar to how it was before. Having a roof over your head helps especially in a stable environment where food is on shelves and parks are still open. Happy days.

The future Jumanji is interesting. The Hunger Games interest’s me too and The Purge.

It is on like Donkey Kong as been mentioned, easily traceable in local news and something to be mindful of on the street with passers by.

The displacement that is happening here in London is something we are ready for. The readiness was not financed by ourselves, is funded by countries who planned this these past few years.

New construction implicates this with unusual and exciting from the outside looking in properties.

The skies are the same, the usual flying objects above hovering outside my window.

Nothing has changed, even on a clear day is difficult for me to make out what’s in front of me.

Like many I too have to wear glasses, without them from a distance much is blurred.

Is great though I love listening to various things including; music, people, people of power or influence, the birds chitter chattering,

Mutley barking and the boiling of the kettle. Helicopters are loud, luckily though you only see one or two at any given time.

A blue sky and a bursting sun is like a Picasso to me.

This blog, like many blogs has some new things that need adding which requires using the Chrome browser and a Google suggested extension app to implement the code on.

Is an Analytics plugin, so if this is something important to you, you might want to look into adding yourself. Is called Google Insights.

Also the design needs redesigning, making it look more professional, utilising some nice rightly sized, tagged and compressed images to add contrast and seem more artistic.

As you can see I like writing so that is not much of a problem. However if I was selling something, this kind of rambling would only confuse the buyers.

Finally I would just like to apologise for not updating and blogging regularly.

As you can see there is not much substance to this update and as I said at the beginning this is nothing serious.

Just wanted to let you know where I am at, how the weather is here in UK, and that I still alive, churning away on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Again thanks for reading and have a lovely Summertime wherever you are, what your circumstances are or who you’ve loved and lost.

Stay happy.

August Update 20

Welcome. My name is Robert Bridge and this is an August Update for 2020. This year I have been hunkering down like most people around the world. This is just a leisurely update on my movements. Most of which has been spent compiling Spotify Playlists over on Spotify and sharing a cooking diary over on Instagram. This is what I currently use most on Social Media. I also send the odd tweet on Twitter. So let me begin, like I say is nothing to serious.

Corona-19 meant I have changed the way I do things a lot, is changed for a lot of people. Masks have become very fashionable. It seems the virus blows about in the air and in the shops. So we are advised to wear them when shopping, Tom Hanks even suggested drivers should wear in cars. Some people with various medical conditions have been advised to not wear them in certain settings becuase wearing a mask can effect some peoples breathing. Mostly though, people are wearing them, some even show them on Social Media like others do with Christmas hats at Christmas.

Another shift has been one about racial awareness within the police force and in general with activists and protesters. This is happening here in London, Europe and the rest of the world, mainly USA where all the troubles started. It started with a I Can’t Breath hashtag, then moved into lives matter trends, blackouts of blank images on Instagram and other places.

Last week on Twitter many Jews took 48 hours away from social media for something somebody said on Twitter. Also an influential caused a bit of a storm about things he said on Twitter making people back away from social platforms, I think that was Wiley a rapper from UK.

A few days ago Lebanon had another explosion which shook the world because of additional near by compost and some fireworks. Lots of people were injured, near by buildings destroyed and the explosion was very powerful explosion. Some even compared it to Nagasaki explosion that happened a while back.

So with all the excuses for not updating for few months I will get update you on what has been happening personally…

I have learned a few new skills, been practising digital imaging and enjoying all the new apps for mobile phones which assist me in my en-devours. I just been taking it easy though, social distancing and walking the dog.

The great thing about living in London is and I think is the same for everybody around the world. Your local area is cool. Everybody by now should know every local nook and cranny. Public transport requires like shops, masks so the numbers travelling have dwindled. I noticed this week on Twitter a new form of advertising coming down the pipe. A more immersive and evasive approach that monitors facial patterns to certain digital ads on the underground. It is supposed to help advertisers tweek their ads. If people like the ads I imagine they will smile and I imagine over time these positive reactions (or negative) will wane as time goes by.

For WordPress optimization I am recommending the Google Kit plugin. It helps plug in to the new Google optimization tool kit available now. I would say now it has been updated and tried, tested and ironed out previous security issues is a mandatory plugin for your WordPress website, optimising speed load, search engine (Google) visibility and correct mobile phone compression. You’ll learn a lot, is REAL easy to use, push button software and works right out the box. All you need is a Gmail account. It also sets up a little bit of analytics which will give you a better idea of visitors, this includes pay per click, re-targeting and other paid methods of promoting website if that is what you need to do.

With spending more time in the house I thought it productive to read a book on Feng Shui. I still reading and learning stuff to brighten my home. Today for example I moved by bed and re positioned this laptop I am typing away on. The floors clean, bought some more air fresheners, fly spray and I good to go. Two friends visited me to day so I feeling good about life. I would like to help more people.

This month I finally made a Jimdo website. That is cool becuase it only takes five minutes to make. The only have one template and the moment called The Dolphin template which is cool. They provide the copy, have loads of free images and you can upload your own.

I also set up LinkTree which is cool place to add hyperlinks to various places. At the time of doing the Black Lives Matter link was trending so I added that, is an optional pop up at the bottom that they recommending. Perhaps they offer other more trending supportive future topics. I will hopefully keep my eyes peeled. Again is free and very popular on Instagram, so I also added it to Twitter profile (Like we do).

My cooking skills have been improving. Cooking is becoming so much easier thanks to social media. You have all the top cooks spilling their guts with top tips on Social sites including the usual places like YouTube and Facebook. Though they also sprouting up on TikTok. Is funny I seen one yesterday of Gordon Ramsey giving feedback on someone else’s shared TikTok catering short video. As you can imagine it was very entertaining. Our cooking only can improve with feedback.

I am optimistic about this year even though there is so much real risk of deprecation. From climate change to the PPE scandal. I just want to end thanking the NHS and everybody who do good stuff in the medical industry. Also notably all the online marketers for their generosity and time through online Zoom Meetings and other webinar educational tech mediums. As a graduate of Media and indeed Language I am excited again about learning and sharing as we jog along, hopefully with headphones on. Be sure to find me on Spotify, pick a genre that suits you and have a listen please. Also please don’t be shy, if you like to say hello do so, here, social media, DM messaging, YouTube channel, Pinterest, Tumblr even commenting down below. I honestly do not bite. Mutley doesn’t either. Mutley is me dog.

The Media is a Mineral

Once upon a time the media was only the people using their usual skills of communication. Now we have new senses, the printing press and Arpanet. This is already placed into the way we communicate and engage with youth. I sure you agree if media is a mineral we all are required to mine it’s data. The traditions have changed so we can take a look at this in a universal manner. Tapping the current media of it’s minerals requires a recipe book and a media encyclopedia to fully understand the ramifications of wise usage. Is the old adage Greeks and Romans championed to well of group mind, group discussion as well as a little acknowledgement of effective comprehensive teaching methods already in place. You see the media brings so many people together and unites all sorts of unions.
The traditional tools all around the world are the same. Thousands of years ago the world shared by design in architecture, skills sprouted up in art globally as new paints, styles and perceptions came to the fray, give or take a few years. With digital media for example thanks to multi-levels of broadcasting, posting and mounting skills we all know the same things. Yet many choose not to make efforts unless advertised in such a way that the majority feel left out if they not deliver quality. Some choose to represent the novices and others have branding scales to weigh. Each has access to a plethora of information.

May Day Updates SoundCloud Pet Talk

find your purpose with food
Media Marketing Communications III podcast. The third one afraid in on SoundCoud rather than Podbean. Listen in a find out all sorts of stuff from my mindful babble.

Hiya and welcome to this weeks media marketing communications blurbs. My hope is to ignite and transpire that spark that lives in all of us. We are all Firestarters, the consequent occurance of events creates allsorts of stuff. If you listen to my 20 minute blurbs you might be able to be, do or have anything. A disclaimer for the FTC in America is that I know nothing, I am not a fizzy drink or Caesar Cezanne and any academic knowledge shared is nothing new. Infact most of it is three years old, some of this is years out of date andd allsorts of other examples.

When you look into mainstream media you find oligopoly and monopolies swearing allegiance to allsorts of mixed messages. Often missing crucial news to stop contenders of the public getting rammed in the ring.

Since the beginning of time we have seen the red carpet be pulled from underneath the feet of normal citizens. People falling left, right and centre to allsorts of stuff. And as the red flag raises, be mindful of the hooks, sinks and troughs people send out. Like the Argentinean Isles you could find yourself stuck in that damp trench for days and no one will find you.

Whatever your trip is: health, wealth, survival and other readings this will complement that. So please place on those headphones and set aside 20 minutes of your busy day listen to my meanderings.

Yours in Blogging Media through blurbs and podcasts,

Robert Bridge
