Archive for the ‘Interesting sites’ Category

It’s been a while since I last sent a Friday mail (got sidetracked by the SuperBowl and by the Winter Olympics) but the eternal search continues… So this week we have been looking at different ways agencies have used to approach the age-old issue of selling your pitch in an engaging way. So below are [...]

This week we blend the past and the present; the new world and the old, with links that showcase great examples of 3D, holography, archive footage, air travel, space travel and good old philanthropy. Thanks to Russ, who found the first and last links.

There aren’t many people around today, but I thought it would be fitting to end the year with a Friday Mail: it’s a collection of sites and activities that cover topics that have been discussed and reviewed over the year; a veritable smorgasbord of digital delights.

The second is a link to a site that has come across colour photos of World War I by the Lumiere [...]

Progress and the cloud

13, Nov 2009

I’ve borrowed two entries from Springwise for this week, as I thought they made interesting reading. They caught my attention because they were good examples of two trends we have been talking about recently: cloud management (using applications over the internet, as opposed to within a company system) and; mobile/location based services.

Keeping with the short and punchy approach of the past couple of weeks, I present you with four sites and an interesting fact. The fact was passed to me by someone who heard that my son was going through Communion this year. Apologies for the caps, but it’s a simple cut and paste job.
