Poppy Dinsey

Poppy Dinsey works in Business Development at Globrix, the UK property search engine. She lives and works in London, which she loves except for the awful weather and lack of good pecan pie.

You can find her on Twitter, 12Seconds, Seesmic and pretty much everywhere that's ever had a website.

There’s been one news item this week that has overshadowed everything else that’s been on our tellys and in our papers. Okay, that’s not strictly true. Obama’s presidential victory was a huuuuge news story here and even the contents of his iPod…
