18 Doughty Street

Now this is of course a terribly minor glitch in a brave adventure and from what I hear the programmes aren’t too bad. However, Jeff Jarvis is getting pretty frustrated at not being able to watch on his Mac.

OK, Iain Dale pops up (hey, very good customer service and all that) and says:

Obviously when you start something like this there are always a few
teething problems and we are sorting them out, but for 98% of people it
seems to work fine.

What email did you use? Send something to
me at iain AT 18doughtstreet DOT com and I will get our technical
people to look at it.

Pretty good don’t you think?

  2. Ah, schadenfreude…..
    Not just a neat German word!

  3. Still, Iain, 4/10. The boy could’ve done better.
