Never Ending Web Page
Here’s something we just did for Orange. Goodthingsshouldneverend.co.uk
It’s one of my favourite things that we’ve done in a while. It’s a never ending webpage. Crammed full of fun stuff and lots of surprises. Some are online, some are mobile things. But all of them demonstrate the notion of ‘unlimited’.
Not sure I’m supposed to make this public, but people will find out soon enough anyway, there’s hundreds of wind-up phone chargers hidden in the site. I’m not saying what you have to do to find them, that bit is a secret…
I don’t want to say much more because it’s one of those sites which is really about exploration and experience. (We’re hoping that because it’s a never ending page we’ll manage to hit some record-breaking dwell times on the site).

It’s absolutely brilliant! I’ve just started having a look and got stopped quickly and just spent 5 minutes talking to Buzz the Robot (or whatever it is). Not the best use of my time when I should be actively looking for a job, but hey… The whole site is seriously addictive! I think the record breaking dwell times are coming your way!
great site Ian - really really nice and well executed. couldn’t find a trackback for you, so here’s my comment… http://tinyurl.com/yr7n3c
Liking the trees, some fun interaction in there for sure
Love it with all my balls. xx
Brilliant Stuff Ian
Did you guys do the film aswell? Or just the web stuff.
Hi Nishad - Poke just do the digital / interactive stuff. The film is another lovely Fallon creation.
its not as the world record breaking http://www.nonstopfernando.com
i left out the word ‘good’ but i am sure my friend Iain can think of another word.
Yes, it’s true, your Fernando may have broken a record. But infinity never gets into the record books. It’s too big
Very nice indeed. Chat is hugely funny!
Who are the illustrations by? Genevive Gaulicker? They are excellent. Also is that Buzz sitting at Poke typing the answers?
The illustrator who did all the illustrations (naturally) is a guy called Rex - you can see more of his super work at rexbox.co.uk [URL Edited because I got it wrong like a fool, thanks Rex for pointing it out!!!]
Quite possibly my favourite website ever.
The genius of the whole thing is based on one little thing: you emulated the scrollbar in Flash.
That’s something David Copperfield would come up wih should he work in the interactive domain.
Beautiful, charming, playful, integrated…..
Top effort Iain, the chaps and chappesses have come up trumps on this one.
Really, really lovely, isn’t it?
Iain - which AI did you use for the chat thing? I love them, I do.
[…] Nice site from boys at Poke for latest Orange campaign. More details on Iain’s blog. […]
Brilliant - I have literally just wasted 40 minutes when I was supposed to be trying to write an article and meet my deadline!!
Seriously though, loved it
Its so addictive, which is such a rare thing for online work. Best thing ive seen for ages.
Compliments to the team and the illustrator
[…] so the clever folks at Poke created a neverending website to match. Poke’s Iain Tait reckons they’ll rack up some formidable dwell times with this, and he’s probably right; I spent […]
Thanks for the credit Ian - just one tiny thing, it’s rexbox not rexbot
Sorry Rex - To be clear the URL to his fine work is Rexbox.co.uk.
Check it out.
