Techish looks at technologies and asks: What’s the ish? This simple premise will hopefully enable us to be better equipped to think about and deal with technologies as they become unavoidable in our lives. While today’s technologies would be thought magic to those of a previous age: technology isn’t magic; technology is us. Don’t take technology at face value. Think about its deeper meaning and implications. 2016 Techish Designed by Tink Tank.

February 18th, 2013. Welcome to Techish: A blog on the issues presented by technology. Posted by David Hamilton. Any technology sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic. – Arthur C.

This is where Techish comes into play. This blog looks at technologies and asks: What’s the ish?

February 12th, 2014. There might not be an app for that: The quest to quantify politics. Posted by David Hamilton. US Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Matthew Barzun recently wrote about a forum on “soft power”. 8211; the ability to influence and persuade other nations – in which the idea was proposed that this soft power could be tracked similar to how we track our fitness progress using wearable devices or our social influence using Klout.

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. A Quick Guide to Long-Form Content Online: Designing Longer Posts. November 25, 2014. One of the things I find incredible about long-form is how the story emerges as you scroll down the page. Whether it’s a photo gallery, or a long essay, you’re showing new information as you move down the page, and as the story progresses. I came up with a few basic guidelines for designers of long-form content: Continue reading →. November 19, 2014. This blog post...

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. 5 Thoughts About Podcasts from PodCamp Toronto 2014. February 24, 2014. The podcast has come along way in the years between my first PodCamp in 2009 and this weekend’s PodCamp Toronto. Aside from them mostly being played on iPods, podcasts in 2009 also tended to exist simply as another channel for radio programs or a personal hobby. Veteran radio producer Tod Maffin says the podcast form it more suited to intimacy. For instance, instead of addre...

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. Fast Journalism: Researching Quick Tech and Business News Updates. January 5, 2015. I’ve written thousands upon thousands of news updates over the years. (Seriously! Many websites need to turn around quick news summary and analysis shortly after it goes public, and there are tons of people (like me) ready to react to those news stories. I think it’s best to know what information you need for the story while researching. Research can be. Before I go ...

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. WordPress and Long-Form Content. November 25, 2014. While it’s not explicitly designed for long-form-style content, WordPress is actually a great platform for long-form. In this post, I’m going to discuss some of the themes that are suitable for long-form, the Aesop Story Engine plugin. For long-form storytelling, and some simple CSS tweaks to help tune a theme for long-form. A Headstart: Premium Themes. A child theme for Ghost. Is a plugin that add...

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. A Quick Guide to Long-Form Content Online: Telling Longer Stories. November 19, 2014. This blog post is based on a presentation I did last weekend at WordCamp Toronto. It’s widely believed that all online content should be short to contend with diminishing attention spans.

Journalism, copywriting, media, internet, culture, etc. September 10, 2014. Before I go into the specifics of writing non-fiction quickly, I want to mention that there are plenty of advantages to writing slow. It leads to a certain meditativeness and nuance that’s often impossible to achieve when writing for a quick deadline. Most of the best writing involves quiet contemplation, careful consideration and a seemingly endless process of editing and revision. Figure out what you’re writing. RPC advises wri...

Tumblr - what was so seductive about Tumblr? Why would you try to do a class project in it? Zoho Notebook - any reason why you're just not working for me?
