I work as a freelance social media and multimedia consultant and producer, and also write and blog on a wide variety of topics. I can help you get to grips with using the social web to your best advantage, be it blogging, social networking, video, podcasting, or using tools like Twitter.

Over on my blog you’ll find my thoughts and things I’ve found useful or interesting by way of “how people use the internet”, or other social technology. I’ll often share the generic conclusions that come out of my work, so you can get an idea of how you might work with me.

I’m an experienced internet producer, creating and managing websites for the last ten years.  I spent nearly four years working for the BBC designing and building interactive displays and film. I’ve also worked as a commissioning editor, and author on multimedia design books, and as a journalist.

“It was a real pleasure working with Jon on TheBig Picture… a never-ending source of inspirational new ideas for how we could make the most of the digital potential of the project…and produce[d] great results. His creativity, knowledge and enthusiasm contributed hugely to the success of the project and I hope to have the opportunity to work with him in the future.” Caroline Griffin.

“Jon Bounds is creative, sure, but his projects have something more. Whether coining memes for fun, or developing approaches to improved public consultation on policy documents, or all manner of work in between, Jon cares about his work and the way it touches people. [he] instinctively understands how people do things online, and is a true wit to boot” Jon Hickman (Birmingham City University)

“Jon was a fantastic help in showing me the possibilities of WordPress and social media in general for a significant corporate website development for the NHS. His expertise is second to none and it was great to have him involved. ” Rob Benson (NHS Birmingham East And North PCT)
