What's going on in the world……keeping TABS
What's going on in the world……keeping TABS
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - 31 May 2011 ) Not being a digital native, sticK has a fair bit of a challenge keeping up with changes happening in the real and virtual worlds.
Heck, my mobile phone’s a dumb one, and Facebook is constantly reminding me to check back in.
However, sticK’s well aware that there’s a tonne of change occurring – for which’ keeping TABS’, by Britain’s Canvas 8 group is such god send.
TABS – trends + anthropology + behaviour + strategy is, as the 32 page document describes itself, a biannual summary of the most important global changes impacting people’s attitudes and behaviour.
For sticK – science, technology, innovation & commercialisation KNOWLEDGE - is a new Wellington based news service concentrating on following the money from ideas to income. Contact editor Peter Kerr at peter.kerr055 @ gmail.com

up the location of the flock the wool came
from.
