Good Timing. Easter Con 2010 Shoving off for a weekend.

Posted on 14. Mar, 2010 by nikbutler in Events

Just as the 11th Dr returns to the screen and makes a grab at the youth market.

I shall be at EasterCon talkin Science Fiction and Fantasy with Fan, Authors, Publishers, Retailers and anyone else who will join me for a pint. Apparently im also taking part in talking about Social Media and twitter things at one of the panels so expect a Ustream stream channel from me at some point on the day.

As usual I shall be sporting my very subtly downplayed Loudmouthman.com TShirt so keep an eye out for it.

Thanks for reading.

Things to do on a Weekend #7 – Forbidden Planet (dotCom)

Posted on 03. Sep, 2008 by nikbutler in Events, blog

30th Anniversary

Forbidden Planet ( dotCom ) are turning 30 and to celebrate this they are offering 30% off Everything(usual small print applies ) . There  will be  goody bags, TShirts ( for the first 30) and StormTroopers keeping the peace.

Whilst nostalgia may not be like it used to be, I for one am happy that some things are making a comeback. Especially the ‘People Like Us’ Graphic which was used as  an in 2000AD and which I remember seeing and then pleading with my parients ( hey I was nearly 11 ) to take me to my nearest Forbidden Planet store.  Its History  can be  read over at  Danacea s blog.

Shop at Forbidden Planet

Since I mention Danacea its worth giving a huge tip of the hat to Danie Ware, Forbidden Planets own Marketing Maven whose Social Media presence in Flickr, Facebook, Twitter and occasionally her own Blog has created a space online where the heart and soul of geek and fandom alike can contribute their experiences.

Thanks for Reading.
