I’ve been creating a new Facebook page for DJ Format. It’s been an utter nightmare. You’d think with the massive user base that Facebook has they’d make a half-decent product which was easy to use. But oh no… Installing apps has been a nightmare. There is no ‘app store’ like you’d expect to find, nope, [...]

Things I’d love to do but never will…
Posted: 29th July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: things id love to do
There are some things in life that I’d love to do, but will never get the chance or will never do through manners/social standing/being a nice person. Kicking in a door Telling a perfect stranger that they have ‘nice tits’ Stealing a police car and tearing around the streets with the lights and sirens blaring [...]
Well, that went well, if I do say so myself

1 day – DJ Format’s new Youtube channel (which I made) has notched up 252 views. Nice. Ok, so it’s not record-breaking, but it’s still pretty spiffing.
Breaking rap stereotypes
Posted: 24th July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: Breaking rap stereotypes
People always stereotype rap. ‘It’s all about bitches, money, cars and killing each other.’ Sure, yeah, that’s what it’s all about. God I hate you. Open you mind, open your ears and realise that there is a lot more to rap (and Hip-Hop) in general than you think. Rap can be clever, thought-provoking, humorous and moving. [...]
Chuff you SweetIM

There is a moral to the following story. It is that you should NEVER be over enthusiastic on the internet and go clicking links willy-nilly without paying enough attention. On Friday, I decided to go about setting up DJ Format’s Youtube channel. A task which involved not only downloading already live Youtube videos, but also [...]
You’ll seem like an obsessed fan
Posted: 22nd July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: DJ Format
“You’ll seem like an obsessed fan” Is what my wife said when I went foraging in the loft for a roll of old posters from my ‘youth’ – producing a (partially) signed poster from DJ Format’s first tour. “No I won’t!” I protested, “it’s been in the loft for years.” “Hmmmm.” “Look, it’s not got [...]
Fame is subjective
Posted: 21st July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: DJ Format, Fame, robbie williams
Fame is thoroughly subjective. I’ve discovered that over the last 2 days while trying to come up with a list of questions to ask DJ Format. Most people I’ve spoken to don’t know who he is. Not much of a surprise as most people I know don’t like, nevermind listen to Hip-Hop. To me DJ [...]
Remain calm – DJ Format interview
Posted: 21st July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in Interesting Discoveries, Interviews, ReviewsTags: DJ Format, DJ Format Interview
“If you don’t ask, you don’t get” Was the wise words of a friend yesterday. So true. But sometimes you’ll ask a question and be sure you won’t get a positive answer. ‘Can I have a payrise?’ ‘Will you wear this sexy French maid outfit for me?’ ‘Can I borrow 3 grand to invest in [...]
Using Twitter properly – it’s good for pimping stuff!
Posted: 19th July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in Ramblings, SEOTags: DJ Format, Twitter use
The other day I discovered DJ Format on Twitter @djformat4. I was rather pleased I’d found him, but frankly disappointed by his lack of followers. Format is (in my opinion) a truly tremendous Hip-Hop legend. A brilliantly talented, British DJ who is highly under-appreciated. So I Tweeted an #FF saying people should follow him. Monday morning [...]
Killed creative staff required
Posted: 13th July 2011 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: email marketing, Reed
Bit of a balls-up from Reed here. “Killed creative staff required” – poor creative staff, what did they ever do to you? Probably should have proofed the e-mail before sending it out.
