Which brands would you call the police for if snaffled away from you by a family member?  What toys did you have taken away when you were a wee person? Mine was a teddy bear. Buffalo Grove boy dials 911 after parents take away his Xbox video game A 15-year-old boy told Buffalo Grove police that his parents had taken away his video game system and asked whether they were within their rights. They were, police told him. The teen called 911 about 12:50 p.m. Sunday but then hung up, said Cmdr. Steve Husak. Officers went to the house, and after hearing the story, told the youth that his parents have the authority to take away his Xbox as punishment. He also was advised to listen to his parents, Husak said. Husak did not know why the boy was being punished. ( Chicago Tribune ) … I still miss that bear. It was given to my baby sister. Who gave it to her kids. *hopefully* maybe I can get it back now? By the way, the baby in the photo is Victoria – her parents met on the social network Xbox Live and started dating. Soooo cute.

Electrolux global social media summit in Stockholm with video of me Laurel Papworth as the representative from Australia/Asia.  Peter Shankman from HelpAReporterOut was part of the summit too! Electrolux hosted a global social media summit from Stockholm, Sweden on Monday night. They invited a social media strategist from each continent to speak for 10 minutes on the State of Social Media in their country or region. There was dodgy sound – India and Hong Kong were worse than mine and hardly able to be heard. The American representative was Peter Shankman , the guy that started HARO – Help a Reporter Out , initially as a Facebook group and now a mailing list of 100,000 supporters.  I have blogged about before.  I was invited to speak as the Australian representative: Note, I haven’t been in online marketing since 1989 – I’ve been in online communities since 1989. Kind of a major difference. This was completely unrehearsed, off the cuff,  at nearly 1am in the morning, not exactly the lavish production you see elsewhere. 100 or so people in the audience -Swedish companies, lots watching online and only a few on Twitter stream. I mentioned some Australian key players: Cameron Reilly of The Podcast Network ( @cameronreilly ) Duncan Riley of Inquisitr ( @DuncanRiley ) RedBubble Huggies Insqribe augmented reality the Australian team at Habbo Peermint and iGrin Builderscrack NZ Police Act Gary Hayes @ garyphayes Darren Rowse @ Problogger It’s really important to me that Australia and the region is represented internationally.  And to that end, I’ll keep pluggin’ away.
