Peter Blunt

What is your favourite website?

Currently a close run thing between the and that extols the virtues of all things Thomas the Tank Engine 鈥 thanks to my three year old son.

What is your worst digital habit?

Colleagues might say turning my emails into the next edition of War & Peace.

iPhone/Blackberry/Android. Which side are you on?

Definitely iPhone. I鈥檓 not a huge fan of my BlackBerry, especially the functionality.

Are you into social networking? (Linkedin, Twitter, Facebook etc)?

I mainly use LinkedIn and I鈥檓 the guardian and author of . I don鈥檛 have a Facebook account though as my wife manages to adequately track and report on my every move outside work via her account. 

What is your preferred means of communication?  (eg. Email, phone, face to face, text etc)

I do prefer face to face conversations, although email is the most convenient; especially when I wake up at the crack of dawn 鈥 no one wants a meeting at 4.30am!

What is your favourite app?

鈥 my three year old son loves trains. You have to 鈥渉it鈥 the trains as they pop out of a number of tunnels, apparently.

What did you last buy online?

A weekend to Berlin.

PC or Mac?

Definitely PC. Macs look great, but I鈥檝e lost the will to live trying to learn to use one properly.

Guilty pleasures: Most played tunes from iTunes/Spotify?

Most of my iPod has been taken over by nursery rhymes but there鈥檚 always space for a bit of Westlife鈥檚 鈥淔lying Without Wings鈥.
