mflow has given us two pairs of tickets to their “Calm before the storm” party, featuring acoustic sets from two hotly-tipped musicians, Lauren Pritchard and Pete Lawrie at Ronnie Scott’s on 15 April (from 5.30pm).
To win a pair of these tickets, download mflow from www.mflow.com, using the invite code LBM2277 and answer the following question:
What is the name of Lauren Pritchard’s debut EP on mflow?
The first two people to email the correct answer to chris.reed@brewdigital.com will win tickets and + ones.
What’s mflow?
You might already be aware of mflow, it’s a new legal music discovery and sharing app which is a cross between Twitter and iTunes, currently in private Beta.
The way it works is that you are recommended music by people that you follow and in turn you can recommend music to your followers. And then, if you buy the music which is recommended to you, the person who recommends it gets 20% of what you paid credited to their account to say “thank you”. (The NextWeb described it as “the social iTunes which pays its users”)
Well the nice people at mflow have given members of the London Bloggers Meetup early access to mflow to try it out before it goes public later this month.
So, if you’d like to rub shoulders with the likes of Zane Lowe, PopJustice, and NME on this social network with music at its heart then go to www.mflow.com, download the app and use the code LBM2277
Things like integration with Twitter and Facebook and blog-ready widgets are all in the pipeline before the public launch, but even without them it’s frighteningly addictive…
If you’d like to know a bit more about mflow before-hand, or to write it up, then do check out their blog, SMNR, or follow @mflow.
And if you’d like to know what others are saying about it first of all, try the Guardian (who describe mflow’s as “Twitter’s hipper little brother”), Stuff, or LBM’s very own Laurence Borel’s blog.
I spotted this presentation on slideshare and wondered which of Rohit’s catagories we all fit into..?
I presonally think I cross into various categories but have a read and let me know which one best describes you and your blog.
The April edition of the London Bloggers meetup is nearly upon us and I am delighted to say that charity Fashion Targets Breast Cancer has asked if they could support our event with some food, drinks, goodies and a fantastic competition.
Haven’t heard of the charity before?
Well as a quick intro, it was setup by Ralph Lauren in 1994 as the fashion industries response to breast cancer. The campaign raises funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer, the UK’s leading breast cancer charity and to date has raised over nine million quid, nice!
So what’s the competition then? Well, you all have the opportunity of getting your sticky mits on £100 worth of gift vouchers for one of the retailers that supports the charity (possibly TopShop or M&S).
What do you have to do to win this prize….? It’s simple answer the following question on this blog in 100 words or less:
Why should charities use online communications to support their cause?
Simple. Just add your entry as a comment on this blog before the closing deadline of 12 midday on Monday 27th April. The winner will be chosen by the charity and announced at the meetup on the 28th April.
In the meantime, don’t forget to RSVP for a place at the meetup. There will be the usual great crowd of phenomenally interesting people to meet, from brand new bloggers, to seasoned hacks and everyone in between. As always, anyone who blogs, or is interested in blogging is welcome.

That’s right, the London Bloggers Meetup in February is being sponsored by our friends at Bacardi Breezer. Why? I hear you ask. Well, I’ll tell you.
This month Bacardi Breezer launched a refreshing new 100 calories range in fresh and fruity Blueberry, Raspberry and Pomegranate and to celebrate the wise people at Bacardi have decided to treat the London Bloggers Meetup members to some samples, free drinks and a fantastic competition.
One lucky winner will pick up a guilt free shopping spree at House of Fraser with a £150 shopping voucher up for grabs. Go on indulge in some designer shopping for a ‘New Year new you’ wardrobe. The fun doesn’t stop there, Bacardi Breezer has also provided two £75 shopping vouchers for two lucky runners up. Nice!
After hitting the shops, what better way to relax than with the great tasting refreshing blend of tropical flavours, BACARDI Rum and sparkling water, that make up the Bacardi Breezer 100 calories range…saving you calories, and helping you stick to your New Year’s resolutions!
Sounds good right? So how do you get your sticky mitts on these fantastic prizes then? As always it requires a little creativity. All you have to do is answer the following question:
Bacardi Breezer 100 calories has just that, 100 calories. The most fun I’ve ever had burning off 100 calories is…
Your answer can be a text comment posted up on this blog, a drawing scanned in and emailed to me, or a video posted on YouTube, or any combination of these. The three most entertaining posts entered before the deadline of 12 midday on Monday 23rd February and as decided by a panel of expert judges will pick up the prizes. To win the grand prize you must attend the Meetup on the 24th February.
