DIARY: My media - Douglas Young, managing director, G.O.D

<p>Television </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Discovery Channel is my favourite. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>There is always so much variety, not just wild life, but archeology, </p><p>travel, scientific mysteries and so on ... it's entertaining, yet it is </p><p>also very educational. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Press </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>HK Magazine is among a few print titles I cannot do without. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>If Hong Kong wants to be a world city, then it cannot do without a </p><p>vibrant cultural scene. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>A listings magazine is essential to not only provide information about </p><p>what's happening around town, but to also act as a catalyst to inspire </p><p>more events to happen. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Websites </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Yahoo because it is practical, functional and informational. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Nowadays, whenever I am doing some product research, I invariably go to </p><p>this site for informaiton. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Before the days of the internet, it was the stuffy old university </p><p>library. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Advertising </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Absolut Vodka. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Despite the many imitations of this ad campaign, it is still on the </p><p>cutting edge and is always able to surprise. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>This proves that a simple but potent idea, when expertly executed, can </p><p>go a long way and that you can never be more original than the </p><p>original. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Radio </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>I really can't think of a favourite radio programme in Hong Kong, but I </p><p>would have more to say if only we had a jazz station ... </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
