So we got the final contracts through for the book I’m writing – Pioneers of Digital – with Paul Springer.

It just happened to be my 40th birthday when I signed next to my name, so Ashley helped capture the moment on video with the wriggly help of little Maggie.

Posterity aside, now the actual work begins. We have a deadline of 29th of February to deliver the tome.

Anyone know any good  online touch-typing courses?

P.S. Follow Pioneers of Digital on Twitter.

In case you were wondering what the future looks like……..

OK, well maybe not her name, but she’s getting bigger and able to kick those long legs like crazy and respond to sounds.

Hard to believe that just over a month ago she was inside Ashley wiggling like this!

It’s Ashley’s birthday tomorrow, so Daddy and Maggie will be doing special for our heroine, followed by dinner with family and friends in West Seattle.

But I want to watch the game!

We’re trying to persuade Ashers that “that something special” might be finding a pub for the England world cup rugby game tomorrow……….but not sure that’s going to wash!

Had the great fortune to interview Jaron earlier this year.

He’s going to be at Advertising Week in NYC next month where I hope to catch up with him again.

Watch this 90 second video to see what he has in store for the advertising folk at the world’s largest gathering!

And be prepared for stories of Maggie’s first flight, as she’ll be coming too…..

Quick 1 min video to share as the Microsoft Advertising UK team aired the 1st IAB Film Strip Ad on MSN yesterday with Ford Focus.

This ad format has cause quite a positive stir in the industry because of its innovation around engagement and interactivity.

It also won an award!

What do you think? Seen any other good examples of online advertising recently?

Ever wondered whether this is the year of mobile? Listen to Jon Haber from OMD’s Ignition Factory, and tell me this form of connecting with consumers “on the go” hasn’t got a whole lot more exciting over the last 18 months!

Salivating yet?

Who needs to go down to Lake Washington for Seafair, when you can watch the Blue Angels from the comfort of your own home?

Filmed from our deck, they flew so low they set off car alarms on our street. Check out the very cool final frame fly past!

We had a fantastic evening at Seattle’s Seafair Torchlight Parade last night.

Thousands lined 4th Avenue from The Seattle Center to Qwest Field and we found a spot on Washington that saw a lot of action from the 100 groups of participants that had come from from all over the Pacific Northwest.

John Stewart – England is AWSOME! from Tim Deiling on Vimeo.

Watched Prime Minister’s Questions on BBC America the other day and knew something like this would be put together!

Utterly hilarious!

So proud to be British….. 😉

Thanks to my brother James for the tip!

This year was my 3rd Cannes Lions Festival, and we had a cracking line up and loads to do social media-wise.

On the Tuesday morning I got a call from Ashley saying she was having contractions, so the next day I made the mad dash back to Seattle on 3 planes, only just making each flight.

She was OK, and we’re still waiting for the baby, but I was really proud of the guys on the ground in the south of France who re-grouped and proved I was surplus to requirements.

This is the highlights video which features the best of our participation at this year’s event!

Au revoir!
