Hi welcome back to another episode of Control Alt Delete, the podcast with the same name as my book which is out in July with PING on a random house.

So I've just got Bavan holiday and I've also got quite a sore throat.

I don't know if you can tell. So today's episode is really exciting. I have

Julia White on their podcast who works at Twitter HQ in London and she is a brilliant person who I've worked with in the past and is my friend. So she's a very cool lady in

tech. She studied at the University of Birmingham before then starting out with the

Express newspapers. She was then the deputy online editor of Okay magazine and then the editor of Yahoo's Celebrity Channel.

She now heads up the media partnerships at Twitter, so she basically helps magazines and publications and lots of media channels make the best out of

Twitter and the platform and all of the things that offers from Periscope to Snappy TV to lots of different unique hashtags or emoies. So yeah she does a lot and especially with

magazines such as L and Glammer and Red to get the best out of the celebrity interviews and all sorts of innovative and tweeting from space, online journalism, how to get into the industry and the power of social media.

So I hope you really enjoy this episode. Thanks for listening.
