Ged has tagged me on the latest meme to find inspirational communicators. So far names include; Steve Jobs, Muhammed Ali , Big Winston, Banksy and Wadds Grandad!
I thought I would take the literal route and go for the big 3; Telephone, Internet and Email.
Alexander Graham Bell for beating Elisha Gray to the patent office and starting the ball rolling for long distance (not initially mind) voice communications.
Sir Tim Berners-Lee the man behind the WWW, might not have been the same if it wasn't royalty-free!
'The Email' it actually pre-dates the Internet by 25 years! Now a staple of most of our lives, I have at least 4 email addresses!
On a personal note I would got with two teachers; Andy Corcoran, my inspirational advertising professor from Uni and Mr D'Angelo - I have never seen someone with such a passion for Maths!
I am going to tag Robin, Paul and a very quiet Daljit

Facecrook - You're nicked!
Yorkshire police have started to use Facebook (and YouTube) to catch Graffiti 'artists'. They have started a group called 'Harrogate Safer Neighbourhood Team' that shows 'tags' from the artists in the hope that younger members of the community might know who has been vandalising local buildings.
It has already led to four arrests - Go Social Media crime fighters!
Not the best quality video from Harrogate Police:
