A big 100TH HAPPY BIRTHDAY today to the one and only Mel Brooks 🎂🥹
Of course it's good to have our roof fixed but we were worried about making the Starlings homeless so really pleased they adopted the new home
A4 Digital competence saves time, protects money and opens doors. From job searches to online banking, stronger skills reduce risk and increase opportunity in daily life. #DigiBlogChat
The office where I work has a #Peregrine cam (link below) and it's suddenly got a bit more interest! Screenshots from www.wokingperegrines.com #DigiBlogChat
A9 #DigiBlogChat Probably, but haz that happened in most areas of tehcnology where patents are managed on a worldwide basis. Do people in digital technology think that it's special. ... however they do share with the ilicit drugs business, the habit of calling their customers "users"!
Carol Stephen@carolstephen.bsky.social · 4mo agoQ9: If every region successfully pushes for strict tech sovereignty, do we risk creating a "splinternet" where the global, open web breaks into isolated regional networks? #DigiBlogChat
A10b Tech sovereignty isn’t about isolation—it’s about smart control. The goal isn’t to own everything, but to avoid owning nothing. Resilience, flexibility and awareness now define digital strength. #DigiBlogChat
A10a Start with a dependency audit: map where your data lives, who controls it and your biggest vendor risks. Even small shifts—like backups, open standards or a second provider—build resilience fast. #DigiBlogChat
Join us Tuesday, March 31 for Tech Sovereignty with @lazblazter.bsky.social ! #DigiBlogChat NOTE THE TIME: 8pm UK time, 9pm western Europe, 3pm ET, 12:00 NOON pm PT. We should be back in sync! Questions: yoursocialmediaworks.com/tech-soverei...
A3 Seamless experiences changed my behavior—one-click buying, autofill, smart recommendations. When friction drops, expectations rise. Convenience isn’t a perk anymore; it’s the baseline. #DigiBlogChat
A7. I’m a fan of the "Friday Reset" (any day could work) - every Friday I empty the trash, purge emails, review data stores and ruthlessly delete unused or out of date content. It makes Monday morning feel like a fresh start instead of a pile of chores! #DigiBlogChat
A10b Digital clutter builds quietly but affects speed, security and peace of mind. A few small habits—deleting, organizing and reviewing accounts—keep your tech life lighter and safer all year long. Start today. #DigiBlogChat
Don’t use AI because it’s cool. Measure time saved, customer impact and ROI to know if it’s really working. jimkatzaman.substack... #MondayBlogs #DigiBlogChat featuring Carol Stephen LazBlazter
AI for Small Business: From Hype to Real-World Results
Automate, optimize and rethink processes without losing the human touch

A10b AI isn’t about replacing small-business owners—it’s about reducing friction. Used thoughtfully, it can save time, sharpen decisions and improve customer experiences. Start small, stay ethical and measure what actually matters. #DigiBlogChat
A10b Online privacy isn’t about hiding—it’s about choice. Small, repeatable habits add up: review settings, question permissions and share less by default. You don’t need perfection—just intention. #DigiBlogChat
Good advice on staying safer using digital #DigiBlogChat
LazBlazter@lazblazter.bsky.social · 7mo agoI think this is where that monthly settings update and review comes in. It is difficult to keep up with the changes. App updates usually trigger a reset on all Cookie settings which affect Privacy controls you think you have set. #DigiBlogChat
Love early morning walks this time of year and home for a coffee and warm up taking photos like these
Easiest and best mulled wine for #Christmas .. two parts red wine (could be an opened bottle) to one part ginger wine a few cloves and warm in a saucepan with honey to taste .. that's it and don't boil #DigiBlogChat with mince pies optional
A1 AI’s biggest shift in the next 3 years: It will erase the line between “draft” and “delivery.” Tools will prep briefs, summarize research and turn raw ideas into usable work, so humans focus on judgment and originality. It’s not about speed—it’s about elevation. #DigiBlogChat
Since you asked @carolstephen.bsky.social I was able to swing by that pond and realised the #herons have a nest. At one point a pigeon was sitting on my camera lens!
Surprised to see Grey Herons just outside London and a Cormorant at Carshalton Ponds #MobilePhotography snapped with a mobile #DigiBlogChat
Not enough people know that you don't hear about the holes in the ozone layer anymore because an international agreement banning production of chlorofluorocarbons was wildly successful and the ozone has recovered since. Change is possible. None of this is inevitable. We can choose differently.
For anyone not familiar with International Talk Like a Pirate Day, it is coming round again - 19 Sep 2025 - and you can get the inside info here: talklikeapirate.com #digiblogchat - @carolstephen.bsky.social we could do a chat on this one!
