Meet the teentoday.co.uk team

Meet the team of oddballs whose hard work, dedication and love make teentoday.co.uk officially the UK’s best teen site. (Well that’s what our mum told us.)

Site editor

The site editor is Oliver Meakings but you can call him Olly. teentoday.co.uk is his baby and although he’s the World-wise old age of 27 now he’s still working hard to make teentoday.co.uk your daily online destination. Shambolic celebrity interviews and drunken rants on twitter are his speciality. Got something on your mind? Email him on . PS - yes, they’re comedy glasses.

Music / Style / Genius Editor

Proving teentoday.co.uk’s global ambitions, Rach writes from our TT HQ HK (that’s teentoday.co.uk headquarters in Hong Kong) and the loyal thing has been at Olly’s side for several years now. This girl’s got more shoes than Sole Trader, could make Britney look effortlessly stylish and is a friend of the stars dontchaknow. And I’m not just saying that because she’s paid me… although, it did help. Oh, and she’s officially the third best karaoke singer on the teentoday.co.uk team. And that’s fact, despite never having heard Joanna sing. Got any hot new music or style tips? Email her on .

She also has a blog, Through The Looking Glass, and a twitter and you’re all invited.

Style / Hair / Make-up writer

In 2009 our humble team added a long-overdue new addition in the form of Joanna. A prolific investigator and writer of new style, make up trends and hair how-to content for teentoday.co.uk, it’s a wonder she’s got time to down bottles of Jacob’s Creek on nights out with her mates. But it’s her tireless dedication to that cause that landed her the job.

Music / TV / Whatever writer
image2009 also saw the addition of team member Conor whose response to the question “Name 3 reasons why teentoday.co.uk is your favourite teen site” formed the best application we’ve ever received… and we’ve received literally 6 applications. His elevation to godlike status (aka unpaid writer for a teen website) means Olly can now sit under his blanket all day. Everyone’s happy. (yes, we reused the jokes). Amongst other things, Conor shares his love of music (he’s a proper DJ and everything) and low-rent, trashy American TV.

Moderators needed
In their heyday the teentoday.co.uk message boards were a thriving community of passionate and opinionated teenagers. Then it all went wrong :-( We’re working hard to bring back those halcyon days and need your help. If you’re powerhungry experienced in online communities - moderating, promoting, ranting - we want to hear from you. Get your boot-ay in gear - have a look here for the full details.
