Great online gallery of gamers alongside the avatars that they use to represent themselves. The fact the commentary is in German kind of adds to it in a strange way. Tip: click the images to move on to the next pair. Via We Make Money Not Art

Smart casual is one of my most despised terms ever. What could make it worse?
How about turning it into ‘Very Smart Casual’. Ouch. But I suppose being given the alternative choice of ‘Dress to Express’ is a nice touch. So it’s chinos with a razor sharp crease or a latex fun suit then.
I’m pretty sure [...]
The YayHooray community get all over redesigning big corporations in the style of web 2.0. It’s all over Digg and del.icio.us, so you might have seen it already. But it is pretty funny (if you’re a design geek).
All the cliches are there: expect lots of reflections, rounded corners, gradients and more. Yay Hooray | yh [...]
Faris from Naked talks about the fact that viral ‘just is’. Also uses the nice ‘real world viral’ example (oh, hang on, that’s just a virus isn’t it?) of the 118 vests. Also mentions a foul Coke example of labelling videos as ‘viral 1, viral 2′ on a website. Yuk. That reminds me, I’m not [...]

I Love London
Actually I don’t. That’s the whole point. Me and London haven’t been getting along all that well recently.
So I thought I’d try a little experiement. To see if blogging about great things in London can inspire me to think more about great things in London. And make me more attuned to noticing these [...]
Sophie and I went to Lovebox on Saturday and a jolly good time was had by all. I didn’t take my camera with me, as I’d have done in the past. Instead I took my new phone. By the end of the day I was a bit tipsy and got a little snap happy. These [...]
Following my earlier post on Zopa. Dave, one of the Zopa founders, had picked up on my post and responded in the comments section within 15 minutes of the original post going live.
I’ve always been impressed by Zopa’s use of their blog and the fact that they get out there in the thick of it, [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, we’re working with Zopa at the moment to do a redesign of their website. It’s a great company and a great project.
I was in a meeting last week when Dave from Zopa said “Oh, I’ve stuck some of the designs on the blog to see what people think“. My reactions were [...]
Really useful breakdown of the 100 most viewed clips on YouTube. Nice work: No Man’s Blog: YouTube trends report #1
The top line is that of the top 100:
58 are user generated content
31 are music videos
4 are commercial adverts
3 are commercial virals
2 are movie trailers
2 are Asian tv show clips
There’s further breakdown of the user generated [...]
Nice promo idea – when my Big Chill tickets turned up they’d suck in a ‘free 3 songs from the iTunes shop’ card. Sweet. What they hadn’t done is create a page of ‘recommended’ tracks or anything like that, which might have been a nice addon.
But free things are nice :-)
