I'm connected with a load of founders, product designers and engineers on here. And I've got a simple question for you.
Who currently writes the copy or content for your organisation? 🤔
Do you use a content designer or copywriter? Or is it designers? Product managers? Or AI?
What a pleasure to return to @officialdafc to celebrate the testimonial of legendary kit man, Mo Hutton.
Mo also ran the 'digs', where youth players like me stayed after leaving home at 16.
It was my first time back for 18 years. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
🖤🤍
Apparently today is #WorldCopywritersDay.
I was going to go full-scale Don Draper and open a bottle of whisky to celebrate, but I thought I'd live a little and share some of my favourite lines from recent times.
Crazy, I know 🤪

Does anyone really want this? Who is living such a complex life that you need a personal AI doing everything for you?
🇺🇸 Zuckerberg says that in 5 years you will have a personal AI that knows your life and does the work for you.
"Everyone is going to have an agent that really intimately understands your goals and everything around you and can help you get stuff done."
He means one assistant on money, health, the house, the calendar, running in the background all day.
Meta wants that agent sitting inside the apps people already live in, so it becomes the way you get through a normal day.

If you were launching a simple online shop tomorrow, which platform would you use?
UK based. Small quantities of handmade items. May need to handle global orders in the future.
Is Shopify still the best option?

be nice
care
respect your colleagues and your competitors and your community
probably the only things that actual matter
i remember when we'd have to keep the most toxic person in the team because of their knowledge/context
these days are practically over now

Of course it's not a volley or a half volley. It's just a shot on the bounce. A very good one at that 😮💨🚀
Some recent snaps from our town’s local balloon festival 🎈
No better feeling than watching hot air balloons fly over your house first thing in the morning.
I haven't used Twitter (or X) properly for years, so trying to unfollow old connections and improve my feed. Anyone I should definitely be following in the tech, design or content spaces?
Just booked tickets for me and the wee man to watch @officialEKFC vs @OfficialQosFC on Saturday.
The last game he went to see live was Sevilla vs Real Madrid.
Not sure he’s mentally prepared for the difference 😅
Any Seville recommendations, people? 🇪🇸🍊
The last time I visited was with my mates for the Europa League final 🍻
This one is with the wife and kids, so looking for family-friendly activities, cafes and restaurants ✌🏻
I’m visiting Seville in May when @SevillaFC_ENG are scheduled to play @realmadriden. Do Sevilla tickets tend to go on public sale? And does anyone know how likely I am to get tickets? 🙏
