On The Alert
So you say a few words at a meeting, think no more about it and then two years later you find yourself being quoted on a website. Sometimes there are even photographs too. It's a scary thing, this old internet lark. Mind you, I'm a glutton for punishment when it comes to that sort of thing. I've set up a few Google Alerts so that I get an immediate e-mail if someone goes online and publishes something about BBC Radio Scotland or this blog.
This morning, for example, I was notified about this posting from Zab Mustefa. She was one of the students involved in our election programming in 2007. In her blog she describes her first experience of the BBC.
I was also alerted to this blog about bookshops in which our Book Cafe programme gets a nice mention
Those Google Alerts can often throw up some delightful surprises. I found this blog, for example, in which a couple currently living in Wales describe their various travels around Scotland and include photographs which go back to the late 1960's.
And speaking of blogs, I'm happy to tell you there will soon be more on the way from BBC Radio Scotland presenters. Watch this space.
