Media Release: Unearthing Book Launch

Media Release
Be the difference you want to see in the world - Ian Berry
Unearthing; This book is a social media journey through the history of the DeadReds Wine Group.
Conversations on social media services can lead to improving customer service, sharing important news, laughing over photographs, sharing an opinion, or raising issue awareness.
Whilst many experts pontificate over the whys and wherefores entering the age of socialising conversation, this book has been written to explain and explore the use of social media services to disseminate information and build communities through the journey of the “DeadReds WineGroup”.
Exploring and explaining social media theory seemed such a dry subject. This wine group is about the celebration of life and unearthing rare gems. This subject seemed more appropriate and human for discussing the making of a social media journey. It is, in fact, a very large case study.
This is a look at history in the making. Please join us for the celebration of it's Unearthing.
The launch is to be held at The Universal Wine Bar, 2 September 2011 at 7.30pm
The creator of sparkenation and author of Changing What's Normal, Ian Berry, is our special guest speaker at the launch of Charlie Robinson's first book, Unearthing.
Changing What’s Normal is Ian's fourth book. In his book are 58 sparkenations. A sparkenation is: a spark that ignites passion that leads to action that changes what’s normal. Ian has a special gift of unearthing the talents often locked inside us. So, get sparkenated and unearthed all in one night. How cool is that?
Ian Berry will speak at 7.45pm (and Charlie might say a few words too).
All medias are welcome. Media enquiries are to be directed to Charlie Robinson.

Charlie's Christmas Message
Charlie’s Christmas Baubles of life Twinkle and sparkle Dangling from the tree What can you see Way up high Bright in the sky The warmth from the sun A new day has begun Down below In between my toes The soft grass of home Im not alone Angels adorn top Floating high A child’s delight Not a tantrum in sight Come inside Let it flow Feel welcome with pride Join the tide Baubles for life Glitter and sparkle You are my friend Until the end. | Message |

Love you.
Here’s to 2011... bring it on.

Red, White and Sparkles, sponsorship opportunity
DeadReds has been giving members unique wine experiences for three years and we’d like to continue giving just because we can. | |
With over 450 members worldwide and each quarterly Adelaide event boasting over 60 members in attendance (including from interstate), we believe we have found a winning formula and thank those who have supported us during our journey. Yet we are not content to sit back and rest on our wine corks, so for our next adventure we will be hosting a black tie (red frock) dinner on the 11th November 2011. We would like to request the pleasure of your company at what we hope will be a prestigious event. We will again be raising money for our charity of choice, The Heart Foundation, and we hope that we will be able to persuade you and your winery to again be a part of what can only be described as a unique DeadRed WineGroup experience. As the night is to be held on Remembrance Day we certainly won’t be overlooking a contribution to those we honour. Lest we forget. The night will be full of glamour, entertainment, good wine, great food and stimulating conversation with our sponsors, supporters, people you know, and those you have yet to meet. There will be auctions and special prizes for all. This event will be like no other as you are joined by representatives of other wine regions, wine makers, and wine industry folks. You will also be joined by members of the DeadRed WineGroup, no doubt with some of our Interstate members making the trip for this first-off gala event. This is your opportunity to continue your DeadReds journey. We will ensure your winery/business is promoted in the lead up, during the night and afterwards to our worldwide membership via Facebook, Blog, LinkedIn, Twitter, et al. We offer you the opportunity to discuss with us winery specific packages that we can on sell as part of the night, with part proceeds going into the charity. And that’s just for starters... The rest is negotiable. We look forward to discussing opportunities with you. Basic event details: Venue: Stonyfell Winery MC: Xavier Minicon Auctioneer: AJ Coleman Entertainment: Kate Lara & Antonio Villano Contact: Charlie Helen Robinson Charlie Design: DeadRed WineGroup 0424644624 |

Encyclopedia of Developing Regional Communities with Information and Communication Technology
I was invited to write a paper for the Encyclopedia of Developing Regional Communities with Information and Communication Technology - which I did and it was published. I presented it at the time in QLD. Blast from the past. Just included it in a CV for BMD Constructions. Feels like ages ago - however it is still so relevant.
Online communities can have useful international dimensions because of the very nature of the World Wide Web’s networking capabilities. However, while developing our South Australian community services and practice requirements, we have found a definite tendency in people that they “like and stay with their own kind.” Much of the literature examining the uptake of ICT in community has found that local content is a vital issue. Why? It has been widely demonstrated that local Web sites developed locally provide ownership where an international or national Web site often fails. Another key success factor in the local use of Web sites (in fact, any Web site) has been found to align with whether the development was born from “a need” within the community, i.e., the community has the need and requirements and then provides input, takes ownership of output, etc.

The Australian public will go to the polling booth on Saturday to find out who will be the next Prime Minster of Australia. Now I have got to say that I have had enough of the adverts and the politics these last 5 weeks, and so I thought: what might be a better and entertaining way to think about our federal politicians? What about if we thought about our politicians as a bottle of wine? If you think about it there is some potential merit in this idea. I have bought wines before that I thought had so much great potential, and were saved for a good day in the future....but when it was opened, you realise that the bottle has been oxidised. Bugger. Or the wine turned out to be not as good as you were hoping. Well I think politics are a bit the same.
So to make things interesting this Saturday, I would like people to think about the wine they might think best approximates the characteristics of a specific politician. Now obviously we don’t all agree on our politics otherwise our governments would get in with 100% of the vote, but if you think about it, we also can’t all agree on which wines we like and don’t like. So let’s have a bit of fun and see if we can match up some Politicians to some wines.
