I’m Jon, a London-based product manager for video advertising technology used by UK broadcasters. I occasionally write about digital advertising technology here. My career has involved helping publishers apply rapidly changing technology to help manage advertising, but as it’s the day job, it’s not all I write about. I’ve written many words about radio, the first mass medium to interest me, but you may also want to listen to some collected audio.
This site was once a blog. Much of that writing still exists in the archive. Today, there are a few longer pieces, but the weeknotes trend inspired me to try to maintain a casual, weekly writing habit.

My professional summary is on LinkedIn, but you’ll sometimes find me on Threads (@curns), Instagram, flickr or Blipfoto.
