For those interested in my, well… eccentric writing side, I’ve just started a new column over at the awesome, London-based Mint Magazine about my experiences in the city’s dark streets entitled “A Gutter Rat in London”.

You’ll see me at several points in this video speaking about online community engagement and about the hybrid conference we organized, ForeignPolicyCamp
