About Gordon White

I work as Digital Sales Manager for Discovery Communications Europe in London (and I’m currently taking suggestions for how best to celebrate shark week). I also write occasionally.

My weblog began over at Invading Europe 1.0 and then Invading Europe 2.0 because the biggest thing in his life at the time was the move from New Zealand to the UK. The name seems to have stuck among my friends so I’m transferring it along with the blog to this brand new domain. Plus, I love the conceit of it.

Other than that there’s posterous for things in between tweeting and posting.

I’ve worked in magazines, newspapers, music, events and online over the years both in the UK and back in Australia and New Zealand. In fact my first job out of college was setting up Sydney’s first Virgin Megastore -something that seems spectacularly unimpressive in the current climate. I’m not entirely sure why I mentioned it.

Like most writers I have won a couple of shitty awards. The weirdest was for my zombie radio play back in Auckland.

This is me on Twitter which is the best way to get a hold of me. Or subscribe to my friendfeed. That’s also good.

Otherwise you can email me at my first name followed by this domain name. (That’s almost as difficult as one of those new BBC ‘competency’ questions for TV competitions.)

Please talk to me about writing, online media and anything nerdy. (Except original series Star Trek. I said ‘nerdy’ not ‘rapey’.)

One final note: naturally as this is my personal blog the opinions expressed here are entirely my own and in no way represent the opinions of Discovery Communications Europe, its parent company or any of its subsidiaries. But if you spend more than five seconds here you will work that one out.
