Nadine Dorries, MP for Mid Bedfordshire, is to join the cast of I'm A Celebrity [sic]... Get Me Out Of Here!

FourSquare has struggled to gain traction in the UK outside of major cities such as London and Birmingham in the past but its popularity is steadily growing and now they've opened an office to grow business...

Until now, paying to promote 'stories' on Facebook has been the preserve of businesses with 'fan' pages. The premise has always been simple - got an event or an announcement you need the world to see? Pay to advertise it.

Facebook's 'promoted stories' for business pages work in a Pay-Per-Click...

If you're a brand manager, marketer or business owner using social media to spread the gospel according to your company (and who isn't these days?) then the chances are you've had a dabble with Google Plus. And then, in the UK at least, probably put it down and walked away...

The Olympics? Paralympics? Wimbledon*? The Tour de France? Ryder Cup?

With six races of the Formula One season remaining, there's even a solid chance of a British success story here, too, whether it be with a driver or a constructor. (Or maybe even both.)

Which all makes me wonder why...

Had the Twitter user who poured scorn on diver Tom Daley for failing to score a medal in yesterday's Olympics just left it at the one comment about letting his dad down, the chances are that there would have been a lot of grumbling amongst the online community, and then...

The pub industry is rapidly gearing up for the next big event that we hope we can use to salvage our increasingly torrid 2012 trade: the Olympics.

With the Diamond Jubilee turning out to be a damp squib and the Euros falling unsurprisingly short of England's best performance, we've only...

All I could think, as I sat in the interminable queues that lead towards Silverstone Circuit on Friday, was: "Bernie's going to be a little bit miffed."

The unseasonable weather, the unprecedented interest in this year's FIA Formula One World Championship and disarray amongst the Silverstone stewards lead to me...

My wife quite liked the books she wrote under the surname Bagshawe. I think she looks quite pretty for a politician.

And if I'd read about this on April 1st, I'd have thought the whole thing was a giant April Fool's prank. But, apparently, Louise Mensch, MP, is venturing in...

July 2008. The British Motorshow. Specifically, the Honda stand.

That was where I wandered off, looking at cars, bemoaning the fact that - unlike when I was a child - there weren't piles upon piles of brochures for me to collect and take home, and totally forgetting that I was...

It should have been their greatest moment in eight years. At the Spanish Grand Prix on Sunday a Williams F1 car won a race for the first time since Juan Pablo Montoya, in his last race for the team and the last race of the season, crossed the line victoriously...

For as long as I can remember, people have complained about the price of a pint of beer. It's as commonplace a discussion around the bar as the Great British Weather and if I had a pound for every time I'd heard somebody say "when the price of a pint...

David Cameron is determined to bring in a minimum price on alcohol, to much hullaballoo about whether this is: a) actually legal, b) morally correct, c) financially viable.

Just about every article you read on the subject mentions "minimum pricing" and "binge drinking" in the same sentence, as if bringing...

I'm a prolific user of social networking tools and have been hard at working annoying my friends, family and steadily-gathered online disciples with quips, news links, embarrassing stories about accidentally using Deep Heat instead of deodorant and the occasional photograph of, well, anything that's taken my fancy since 2007.

Instagram,...

Today, I need to order heating oil. The process of purchasing heating oil is a bit like watching my wife go shopping for underwear.

She'll start in one shop, go to the next, followed by another, followed by a lengthy debate over an unbelievably expensive cup of coffee as to...

I know it's not quite April Fool's Day but, as I read through the myriad of news stories, Facebook status updates and Twitter feeds I trawl through each morning in an effort to avoid getting out of bed and helping my wife get the children ready for school, the announcement...
