It has been a busy couple of months at Skoog HQ- with a Launch in Hong kong thrown into the mix. I hope to get my blog up date with some posts on what we have been up to over the past few months just as soon as I can – but in the meantime [...]

Came across this great project the other day - ELEMENTAL MAGAZINE. Elemental is a media company that is going against the grain of standard news. They are using their website and digital magazines as platforms to showcase positive stories, and promote cause based businesses, charities, and individuals who are actively helping others. By publishing these unheard stories they are [...]

So the Skoog features on the Ideamensch site! I think they got wind of us through the Springwise article.  There are some really interesting interviews on the site like Seth Godin and Anders Purde, and of course our good selves.  It is a shame their event isn’t next month and we could have tied it [...]

SKOOG flying the special needs music flag at the 2011 Music learning live conference

The chaps at EduGeek paid us a visit at BETT and they have uploaded some footage of me running through some of the new features of the new software.  You have to scroll through to 4.40 seconds to get to the Skoog demo.  http://tinyurl.com/6hvv2px I will get a fresh run through of the new software [...]

Well we are back from BETT 2011 and what a great few days it was.  Met loads of new friends and supporters and caught up with some old faces.  The show seemed to have a heavy ‘handheld’ or PDA tech for class room slant.  Not much music there this year, no ROland no Yamaha.  Which [...]
