Style It Light: Yahoo and Diet Coke’s fashion site
This year, we’ve been working with Yahoo and Diet Coke to produce Style It Light, a branded fashion magazine for young women.
Our marvellous team of writers is being used across the whole of the European Style It Light network. We’re brimful of pride and extremely thrilled to be working with two such eminent brands.

Katie Lee speaking (again)
Back when I was one of just a handful of women writing about consumer tech I often referred to myself as a “professional opinion-giver”, or — *HILARIOUSLY* — “opinonator” . I spent almost as much time on TV, radio and in print speaking as I did actually writing.
Now, gadgets for women are the same as gadgets for men (before, they were the same as gadgets for men but painted pink), and yet I still find myself being asked to speak.
Which is just fine by me!
Nowadays, however, my speciality has changed. I’m now the go-to girl for blogging and the joys of social media.
Back in February, I took my three-month-old baby to the Sheer Luxe conference to tell the gathered luxury brands why they should be using social media and blogging (you can watch a variation on that talk over at Does my business need a blog?)
On Thursday, I was over at the Sheraton Park Lane to join Shaa Wasmund on stage to discuss the many benefits of blogging in front of a room full of delegates.
If you’re wondering how to set up your own business blog, head over to the Miramus Blog where there are all kinds of useful tools as well as information and advice for budding business bloggers.

Announcing Dork Adore: a haven for geeks
I’ve been thinking for a while now about what to do with all those spare minutes in between 5.30 and 11pm during the week, and wondering whether there was a way to do more work during my weekends and I finally hit on a solution: launch a new website!
So that’s what I’ve done.
Dork Adore, brought to you by Miramus, is the culmination of many hours of labour. I’ve launched it just before I’m required to put in many more hours of labour to produce yet another Miramus project (a baby girl).
Dork Adore is brought to you by Katie Lee, founding editor of Shiny Shiny – the first gadgets site written by women for women. Dork Adore isn’t here to give you the latest tech press releases, it’s here to provide the best advice, opinion, reviews and the odd bit of geek news.
Since the site is written by a group of dorks, you’ll find every obsession covered, from TV to beauty; lifehacks to coffee makers. If you want to get in touch, click here.
Please feel free to have a mooch about, maybe click on a few links and read a few articles. And if you’d like to leave me some comments, or email me with any non-crazy thoughts, please do! You can use the contact form on Dork Adore here.

Introducing Miramus Ltd – my new company!
If you want to know what I’m up to at the moment, you can head over to Miramus.com where you can read all about my new business. I’ve set Miramus up as a catch all company for all the exciting projects I’m working on, and as the launch pad for a few personal projects I’m formulating, so expect the company’s output to be quite diverse!
There’s a blog on the site too, which should give you more information about clients I’m currently working with.
