"Thanks, Niall. Would it be churlish to point out that you called me Alan in the link? :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"I find The CCBP weirdly life-affirming. This relentless mockery of the most inhuman aspects of social media makes me think than humanity isn't as gullible as it looks sometimes. :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"Ah, no. Sorry to disappoint. :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"Mmm. Popcorn." - Adam Tinworth

"It's not unlike the transition journalism has been through - news stories were around 350 words, features in multiples of 1,000 words based on the numbers of pages involved. Once there's no pages involved, all sorts of constraints disappear, so you need to find intelligent new ones to give your publishing form." - Adam Tinworth

"Ah-ha. Corrected - thanks for spotting the literal." - Adam Tinworth

"I suspect there's a middle path: many business books I've read would have been better as two shorter books with the obvious padding cut. That would make each book significantly longer than a magazine article, but shorter than a traditional book. I suspect there's still too much writing to a set length so that you have something that feels "substantial" as a print product." - Adam Tinworth

"The student sent me six questions, but the other three were so horribly generic - "what are your thoughts on blogging?" - that I skipped them for the purposes of this post. And, actually, skipped them in my reply to the student, too." - Adam Tinworth

"Actually, I'm quite intentionally challenging that shorthand in my post. As you note, skill and quality - professionalism, dare I say it - don't actually map well to the paid/unpaid spectrum. Too much of the debate around what we're trying to avoid calling "citizen journalism" is tied up in the delusion that "because I'm paid, I must have higher standards" - and that's clearly not the case." - Adam Tinworth

"The Nexus 7 is a nice choice - inexpensive and rather good…" - Adam Tinworth

"Well, that's one solution Tobes… :) Generally speaking, I find tablets and ebooks are perfect partners. Never really got the hang of reading them on traditional monitors." - Adam Tinworth

"Glad you got there in the end. Be interested to know what you thought of it…" - Adam Tinworth

"I think someone in your PR team needs a stern talking to, then. Possibly even a Hard Stare. They managed to make your working conditions look worse than they are, and sell completely the wrong angle on the story. :-) Thanks for taking the time to swing by and fill us in, though." - Adam Tinworth

"It's the tyranny of the content calendar at work - you _must_ have something up at a set time - even if you have nothing substantive to say. Horrible concept." - Adam Tinworth

"That's the sort of thinking that gets companies into trouble all the time on the internet, isn't it? "We care about the results, not the process". That's why they hire agencies to game their SEO - and suffer penalties down the line. And that's why they try to appear social without actually working at it…" - Adam Tinworth

"Good Lord, I'd missed that. Very creepy indeed." - Adam Tinworth

"Bet you you learnt more from nine minutes reading that article than you would have done from 90 mins in that seminar. :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"It's possible, just possible, that I was exaggerating for comic effect, don't you think? Vine may well be a Twitter-like success - but we're too early in its life to be sure, and anyone attending a seminar on how to use it for "brand engagement" rather than just experimenting is a credulous fool… IMNSHO, of course. ;)" - Adam Tinworth

"I suspect your interest is somewhat more, well, acute than mine… :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"900, I think. "Available after the event in 900 easy to digest parts…" :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"I think it all changes when they launched the UK version." - Adam Tinworth

"Thursday in the Park with Adam :-)" - Adam Tinworth

"Cheers, Mr. M." - Adam Tinworth

"That's interesting - thanks." - Adam Tinworth

"I believe it's n0tice tech underlying GuardianWitness. Not sure about Storyful's role beyond training." - Adam Tinworth

"Get a room, you two. ;-)" - Adam Tinworth

"Worth harping on about - that's the obvious challenge in making this fly. Mr Trippenbach suggested that the community aspect of the Guardian audience might be enough (https://twitter.com/trippenbac... - but I suspect more is needed." - Adam Tinworth

"Joanna suggest that there is more to come… https://twitter.com/GuardianJo..." - Adam Tinworth

"I suspect Jerome's intent may have been satirical… ;-)" - Adam Tinworth
