SITES I LIKE
Taylor Downing – historian and television producer, who in the past has given me plenty of work on documentaries about the Olympic Games. Taylor Downing Website: click here
Radio Garden: allows global surfing, on a fast and effective global map, zooming in on any town or city with a linked-in radio station, and listening to it. A quiet tremendous site.
Living Maps: situated somewhere in the territory between radical geography, local history, literature and poetry, popular memory, community activism, and psycho-geography; far more to do with ideas and debate than careerism and the next REF.

Google Scholar: terribly useful, rather neglected, and Google seems to hide it away:
STUFF I LIKE

Jimmy’s Greek Restaurant is no more. Old news I know (2012) , but Jimmy’s was heavily used by the BFI/SEFT crowd for more than 30 years and it is really sad that it has gone. Use it or lose it – the 100 Club, The Curzon Soho, and Berwick Street Market are all under threat as I write. Westminster Council should hang its head in shame for its failure to support small independent businesses in this area and thereby maintain the unique Soho character.
