Hello

hello – come in and make yourself at home

The Woodies have a blog. It’s a kind of collective. Not sure we’re about to start a revolution baby, but we might kindle a small debate or two and perhaps raise a smile. Anyway, rather than just blogging corporate Woodreed by fielding our top Woodie (as so many other companies seem to do in a thinly veiled attempt at impressing with their profundity), we wanted all our individual voices to be heard. An agency’s most valuable assets are its people after all. Everyone’s got something to say here and with us everyone’s ideas and opinions matter.

Each week someone different will be blogging. It's mostly about stuff that rocks our world as well as the flipside – the things that just don't cut it with us. We'll blog about inside and outside – inside this glorious industry where we work and outside in the real world.
It's a bit of an experiment, so go with us on this one.

Hope you enjoy.

How lost are we without technology?

This is a real test and not rehearsed, written, to be re-written or carefully edited. As I type, my PC has been taken over by Cyrus the Virus and I find myself at the mercy of a pad and pen ( oh and this I-pad)
The point is, what happens when technology fails us.
We end up failing.
The average family spend 9 hours watching TV every week. What happens when that blows up?
What happens when the electricity shorts out for a bit - minutes end up feeling like hours or even days.
So reliant are we on gadgets and appliances we forget what it is like to do without.
Don't get me wrong, I like my tv and gadgets, but we need to be better rehearsed at what to do when technology fail us.
Dont Panic I believe the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy suggested - may be we should just open a book.

Sent from Si Pad so excuse grammatical and punctuation issues.
