The blog with no name

A COMPUTER programmer whose BBC job application led to him mistakenly broadcasting live to a worldwide audience was last night still waiting to hear whether he’d got the job.

Guy Goma, who was ushered before live cameras and interviewed as an internet expert, said that he was “traumatised” by the experience.

The ultimate job interview: that ends up been broadcasted live all over the world. And most people get nervous when interviewed by two people . Not even Monster.co.uk gives advice on how to get ready for an interview like this.

I don't think this has ever happened before: a rockstar editing a paper. Bono gets his chance to talk about Africa on a national newspaper for a day.

I know that some think that rockstars should not get involved with politics, in an ideal world probably they shouldn't. But this is also the world where politicians don't seem to do their jobs. Someone has to do it. And nobody trusts politicians anymore, nobody wants to listen to them any longer. It is sad but Bono will certainly get a higher credibility rating than say Tony Blair.

To give him credit, whatever he manages to achieve will be always better than taking drugs and smashing hotel rooms up (is that a more acceptable rockstar behaviour?).
