UKNM: Noo Meedjia Jargon

[Sam Michel]

This made me laugh, perhaps it's the heat or maybe it struck a chord:


1. '20th Century Fox' - what people are calling Martha now her share price

has plummeted

2. 'Jumped on the 55' - the exodus of old media people leaving Soho for new

media in EC1 on the 55 bus

3.'Webshites' - people who talk loudly and inaccurately about the business,

usually on TV or radio

4. 'Narda' - the process of an entrepreneur becoming a celebrity. eg Martha

Lane Fox has been nardared. Coined in honour of web PR princess Narda

Shirley

5. 'Wagon boys' - chancers copying other people's ideas and trying to IPO

first

6. 'Acroprat' - someone who can't finish a sentence without using an acronym

7. 'Dotcomatrix' - people who have to dominate a certain field and steal the

limelight. Also known as 'Space bullies.

8. 'Heavily optioned' - people who stay with start-ups just long enough to

qualify for stock options just before jumping ship to another company... and

more stock options

9. 'CEOh-no' - unqualified entrepreneurs who think they've got the skills to

run a company and be the CEO

10. 'B2B' - bucks
