You could look this good!

I say robot shoes, it’s actually full plastic armour based on the much loved ASIMO bot. At £120, its a snip (although I have no other robot suits to compare costs with, so you will have to take my word on this) and allows you to experience robot life like never before!

iPads are exploding!

war of tablets1 300x167 iPads are exploding!

Not literally.

That would be bad.

Apparently apples make you fat. With profit. If you’re Apple. They’ve doubled their profits again as record sales of iPads, iPhones and Macs boosted their net sales by 73% to $46.3bn. That’s £27.8bn to you and me.

If you’re not on the iPad, now’s the time to do it.

All the official stuff was from the BrandRepublic website.

A very (Carrot) rewarding project…

Carrot Powered By Logo1 A very (Carrot) rewarding project...

We first got in touch with School Stickers back in November 2011.

As a leading provider of physical rewards that help motivate, reward and inspire schoolchildren, School Stickers were looking to strengthen the exposure of their teacher-facing online dashboard, Carrot Rewards.

Our task was to create, from scratch, a digital brochure that their Managing Director could send out to teachers. The biggest thing for us was incorporating their ethos for schoolchildren (“to motivate and to engage”) into the marketing material they provide to teachers.

From initial discussions over a coffee to countless meetings and phone calls, we constantly stayed true to the Carrot Rewards brand and delivered a brochure that met all their requirements.

The end result is below and you can click the flipping pages to see the full brochure!

Drawing is at the heart of every design…

We found a lovely little blog post and our designers concurred.

But we don’t let them near the blog, we keep them in cages with their Macs and, occasionally, a biscuit.

Anyway, here it is…

Why every designer should start with paper, not Photoshop…

Brightbook

We’ve just started using Brightbook (www.brightbook.com) for our bookkeeping.

In short, it’s a great little system.

What is even more impressive is their ad campaign that was a take-off of Babestation.

Not that we watch Babestation.

Would you believe it? Google are revolutionising web marketing… again!

web marketing 1136 288x300 Would you believe it? Google are revolutionising web marketing... again!

Google leading the way...

Google is poised to completely alter how websites market themselves over the next year. While easing users into changing search results pages, Google has also designed a new method for websites to structure data so that its crawler can better pull information. This is a tremendous strategy. Google doesn’t need to own all of the information in the world, but does own the methods of accessing that information — as well as the ability to advertise to people who use that access.

New developments from Google will include: search results with more direct information; data that Google makes available will be reduced and the company will be entering new industries and markets such as the expansion of data into search results pages.

Google’s activity in the second half of 2011 represents just the beginning of the changes that it will be pushing throughout 2012 as it establishes even stronger relationships with its partners, affiliates, and advertisers. While this happens, every marketer on the web will need to carefully consider and revisit how they are positioned with the search giant and its interests.
