No, not yet the post-match analysis of the PDFEU conference in Barcelona. Don’t fear, posts are a-coming from the Parliament gang on this once-again stimulating and not-to-be-missed event, I’m sure, but right now the objective is a more straightforward one: to post the “missing” Keynote presentation I had hoped to show.
If truth be told, this particular presentation was more a visual prop than a mine of information in itself – I think that’s often how it should be – so I don’t think that it will add a huge amount to what I said (for those who were able to hear it sans microphone). However, there are a couple of interesting graphs in there and the odd fact which may be of interest.
The figures on MEPs presence on social media need a slight health warning. These are based on research we did last spring, and my guess is they have moved a fair bit in a positive direction since. We will set a new bunch of trainees to the laborious task, but I have to say that if those nice people over at Fleishman Hillard were to consider updating their EU Digital Trends survey from 2009, that would be a wonderful thing…
Andrew Rasiej and Micah Sifry apologised about fifty times each to me about the power cut that hit my presentation. No worries, really. It’s a law of nature that these things happen (anyone ever been to a glitch-free conference? Even Steve Jobs has his problems now and then). I just hope that my Unplugged version wasn’t too tedious or hard to follow.
Anyway, here it is. It’s reformatted as a pdf file, so gone are the few freaky transitions and that nice wheely thing graphs can do in Keynote (I’m a sucker for that one, even if I’m not sure it counts as cool any more). Also absent is the video I showed, but you know where to find that: top right of your screens or here.





Sorry Steve, didn’t spot this last week.
We are actually running the survey again this year – launching within the next week or so and publishing towards the end of the year.
Given your interest, would be great to have your input before launch if you’re keen – will DM you.
