Hi
Stephen Fry gives warning for the web at the Hay Festival and a social media campaign by Walkers was hijacked by pranksters on Twitter plus a survey finds the UK and France are leading Europe in harnessing audience data for digital ad campaigns and the successful delivery of digital advertising campaigns.
Just a few events to promote this week but pretty darn good ones!
