Over at the great Huffington Post is an article about how Jon Stewart explains in his traditional humorous fashion how Fox News falsified footage (unbelievable of course 😉 ), to give people the impression that a GOP rally was far bigger than it actually was. Love the ending with Comedy Central's own version also using […]
Client reactions to... ...the new Dyson Ventilator Explained by the man himself Edit: I've since purchased one of course and it is great, although be careful to store it properly as it can scratch easily 🙁
Quite amusing post by CNet UK about how bad the iPhone is at, well, being a phone: "The iPhone is the worst phone in the world". Reminded me of a comment from a colleague recently talking about buying a new mobile phone, "I don't want an iPhone because I want to use it as a […]
A pretty unusual and original buzz around an advertising stunt at a German trade show. I never thought I'd be amused by a video of those pesky household flies. Obvioulsy 2nd generation offspring won't be born with the same adverts 😉 : Re-blogged from FastCompany via WiredUK
I was recently getting very frustrated because I was constantly getting results from Google in French in both IE8 and Google Chrome due to having either a Windows installation in French or other similar French language preferences even when going into "Manage Search Providers", I couldn't find the option to obtain UK or US but […]

Working too hard is not that efficient... in the long term At a time where people are worried about losing their jobs and working all hours god sends to stand out from the pack in a positive manner it seems that they may not be providing their company with the best of themselves. Obviously if […]
Following on from the Twitterer is a mainly a narcissist article, the currently trendy term of "Consumer intelligence" seems to be giving clients the jitters (so agencies see it).

...so Fast Company says in their article: "Attention Marketers: 80% of Twitterers Are Narcissists" (check out the illustration 😉 ) Two Twitter happenings caught my attention. 1) The seismic effect of dear young Miley Cyrus deleting her Twitter account in order to "have a life". 2) It seems to be a revelation for film studios; […]
There are 2 interesting examples here of video from the Nikon 300s and Canon 7D specifically under artificial lighting conditions at night and the wave type issues that appear on the Nikon but not on the Canon 7D. You can see this near the end when the person is filming a shop with the Nikon […]
