London Bloggers Meetup: Music, Blogging & Social Media! By AlexandraLeslie on Monday April 15th, 2013   2 comments

Last week, Techfluff TV’s Alexandra Leslie went to the London Bloggers Meetup. This month’s meetup was held at the Elixir Bar in Euston, and took a look at music and social media. The event had a panel discussion on how the industry is changing as a result of blogging and social media. Guest speakers included Andrew Dubber (Professor of Music Industry Innovation at Birmingham City University, author of ‘Music in the Digital Age’ and ‘Understanding the Music Industries’, and advisor to Bandcamp), James Howard (Google+ Music in the UK) and Terry Tyldesley (founder of Kitmonsters). The three speakers had a lot of different answers for where they believed the industry was heading and why. Watch and see what bloggers and those in the music industry think is more important: participation or popularity?

New Girl in Town Edition 3: Be Safe! By AlexandraLeslie on Wednesday April 3rd, 2013   No comments

Being new in a big city, it’s sometimes difficult to find your way around or know the cool places to go. Armed with an iPhone, Alexandra Leslie is on the hunt for the apps that will make navigation and exploring easy, effective and fun.

Edition 3: Be Safe!


Be Safe! is an iPhone app that allows you to assess your level of risk based on location and time of day. This app is perfect for tourists in Paris, London and New York that may be a bit wary about being in a big city alone or at night, or even just for partygoers looking to stay safe. Be Safe! uses statistics gathered in 2011 from various police reports, allowing app users to see crime rates on a map of where they are.

The mission here is simple, be safe!

If you’re looking for an extra security blanket, this app is available for download in the App Store for just $0.99.

Alexandra Leslie is an intern with Newspepper, our sister video production company, and a Community Ambassador of The Fetch London. She loves sushi! You can follow Alexandra via Twitter @AlexandraLeslie.
