NEWS
Kisky Netmedia is working on a range of exciting Social Media projects. We'll tell you a little about them and our other news in brief here. More detailed information (and, of course conversation) is available via Katie's Blog.
Kisky nominated for Big Chip Award
Kisky has been nominated for a Big Chip Award in the Best Freelancer/Micro Enterprise category. How cool, and of course we'll be going to the award ceremony on 22nd May!
Treasuremytext 2.0
Treasuremytext 2.0 is now live. Treasuremytext is Kisky's popular and award winning SMS archive service: "the simple way to save your favorite SMS online". Following a closed beta programme we've now taken the invite only signs down and we're open for business. We're still making a few product updates before we do much PR and early signs are great. Registrations have soared and our customers seem to be loving the new interface and features.
Culture 2.0
We're working with FACT to explore how Web 2.0 technologies have given rise to 2.0 concepts and principles which, the web aside, can radically change how we all do business, specifically in the cultural and creative industries. In addition to this core project were also championing the Culture 2.0 ethic and will soon be launching a new collaborative think tank, bringing together forward thinking cultural leaders.
Show me Social Media! Seminars
Kisky has been busy delivering tailored training for a range of organisations. Focussing on enhancing web presence using social tools, our "Show me Social Media!" seminars are proving popular with Merit, Liverpool Culture Company, Lancashire and Blackpool Tourist Board, South West Tourism, and The British Film Institute. The seminars blend presentations, demos and collaborative workshops. One example of our presentations is here on Slideshare.

Intercultural Cities Conference

Putting Bold Street Online
Our recent high profile art project 'The Bold Street Project" launched to an excited and eclectic audience, in Liverpool and online. We used a variety of Social Media tools to put this Liverpool street online. This blend of social media demonstrates our strategic thinking on online presence; and how this relates to developing arts audiences and communities. The Bold Street Project was exhibited in FACT in summer 2007.
