    Exce­llent piece, Hugh — I espe­cially loved the bit about the new car­pen­ter maxim :)
    Cheers!

    Bastardstone’s — Waterstone’s emplo­yee sac­ked for blogging

    So, Waterstone’s bookshop have just fired Joe Gor­don, an emplo­yee of ele­ven years, due to his blog. Pretty stu­pid move and another exam­ple of a company/brand (blah!) in need of rea­ding the Hugh­train. Okay, it is perhaps a bit dumb…

    The ‘Hugh­train’ is bri­lliant — nicely sums up a lot of the ideas I’ve had raging around in my somewhat chao­tic mind for some time now — but which are bloody hard to arti­cu­late with any real luci­dity or con­vic­tion.

Just bought the ‘Clue­train’ so loo­king for­ward to a little cri­ti­cal analy­sis. I’ll spread the word about ‘Hughtrain’…

    Yes, I think so. Peo­ple I have shown it to think so as well. Peo­ple such as lumi­na­ries of Asian adver­ti­sing and the likes. I’ll howe­ver allow Hugh to speak for him­self here. Hugh can be found at his blog…
