Like a chameleon, this business venture
continues to change colours. I have just received an email alerting me to the
new face of the organisation I have first written about here, with updates here and here. Holden Research and Publishing, later
re-branded PAS Research and Training, is now called "Place and Space
Research".
They have a brand new website, a twitter
account (which basically promotes their courses) and a facebook page, where there is not a single
post by members of the page and only a handful of likes are evident – one of
which is by Nikki Holden (who I believe to be the wife of Mr Ray Holden and who
was the ‘director of operations’ at Ray Holden
Publishing). They have been promoting a substantial number of training courses
taking place throughout 2013. I wonder if these are of the same standard of the
virtual conference that started my coverage of this organisation...
By the way, they have now dropped the ‘virtual’
/ non-existent journal, although just this January were still promoting it.
PS: Thank you to the various
people who continue to send me emails telling me more about
the organisation and its people, as well as their most recent activity.
