  • Does it matter if 24% of tweets are automated

    This is just one of the interesting statistics held in the recent report, Inside Twitter by Sysomos, which goes into some serious detail about this most loved and hated darling of the social media set.  There are more women twitters than men, 50% of twitterers have less than 6 followers, and Tuesday is the most active day for tweets are ...

  • Nokia augmented reality vision missing a trick

    The new Nokia future vision video is out on YouTube of course, and shows some interesting aspects of future interaction with digital.  Digitally-enabled glasses cant be that far away (though I hope they will look better than those in the video).  However there are two aspects that seem to me to be out of place in any vision of the ...

  • New Freelander ad is certainly not new!

    I have written recently about the Olympus Pen Story, which I thought was a beautifully constructed short film.  Subsequently, someone kindly pointed out on this blog that it had been copied from an earlier Japanese film which was remarkably similar.  Now, I see that the latest Freelander ad looks like another very close copy of the same ...

  • Is Google search evolving fast enough?

    The latest iteration of Google search, http://www2.sandbox.google.com/, is now available for general testing.  The speed with which suggested search terms are returned is genuinely impressive, but are google now being held back by their approach to treating all information equally?  I would find the results so much more useful if they ...

  • re: I love the new Pen camera ad from Olympus

    Thank you for this - you are right, it is remarkably similar, and has some even nicer touches - swimming across the sink and the change in camera angles at around 2min 57s. There is no harm in reusing a creative idea, but I do think that greater recognition of the original is sometimes appropriate.

  • I love the new Pen camera ad from Olympus

     It has been a while since a creative treatment has really made me stop and look again and again - the last one that really took my breath away was the Sony Bravia bouncing balls.        This really feels that it is in that class, an absolutely beautiful stop-motion piece for Olympus for their Pen camera.  ...

  • Zellphones for Zombies?

      It has been a long time coming, but finally it appears that the supernatural are embracing digital technologies too.  According to a news report on CNN,  a Saudi family are suing a Genie for harassment.  The interesting bit is that the genie appears to have embraced our love of mobile phones, and is accused of stealing ...

  • Unusable recycling bins

    Usability is not just for websites you know.  The principles of usability must surely be considered in the design of any product, virtual or real.  If so, then what was going on when the recycling bins at TMW were designed.  We have had the same bins for at least a couple of years now, and still, every single day, I have to force ...
