Daily
A frequently-updated digest of interesting stuff and commentary from around the web, with a UK focus; events and programmes to watch out for. It's updated at least daily, so it's more than daily. If you see what we mean.
IAB Europe announces Research Awards finalists
In advance of IAB Europe's Interact Congress starting later in May, the contenders for the organisation's 2012 Research Awards have been announced.
There's a load of good stuff this year, with IAB UK (yay!) and Microoft Advertising the hot contenders.
Over the Horizons
Thanks to everyone that visited, presented, and participated in Horizons - our first event, which took place at BFI Southbank over the Bank Holiday weekend.
With a full house on both days, attendees were treated to talks, performances, and the chance to sample some truly extraordinary stuff: including the Raspberry Pi, and even the Portugese "rogue" Timex-Sinclair 2068.
Robo Sapiens
Fresh from the BBH Labs oven is Robotify, a social virtual assistant.
Giving anyone the ability to create a mechanised alter ego of themselves, BBH refers to Robotify as "If a Tamagotchi got on Facebook then took steriods"... or, it's rather like Weavers mashed with Suwappu,
May, May Day: "Mayday"
In the light of Home Secretary Theresa May's announcement that the UK Government is considering the monitoring of most Internet traffic via GCHQ comes the inevitable backlash.
There has been a chorus of disapproval, of course, with one particular stunt gaining traction.
Ask Rick Dickinson
To celebrate the week of Sci-Fi London and our ZX Spectrum celebratory event Horizons, we are continuing with our Reader Q&A spot.
So far we have run Q&As with Jon Ritman (done) and Mel Croucher (in progress). Now it's the turn of Rick Dickinson - the designer of the ZX Spectrum himself.
Advertising + homelessness = shitstorm
Ogilvy France has attracted a bit of flak for its project to help the homeless in Paris.
Its YouTube video documents the agency's project to help homeless people seek help through working pro bono on communications and messaging.
The New Aesthetic in writing
James Bridle's idea of a New Aesthetic has received considerable coverage in recent months.
Here, we run down some of our favourite articles - some favourable, some critical, all analytical - on what the New Aesthetic is... and isn't.
Matt Webb reflects on Instagram and Facebook
We all now know about Facebook's acquisition of Instagram, a move which appears to have shocked many, leading to mass boycotts of the otherwise-loved photo manipulation service.
We thought that Matt Webb, one of those lovely people (in fact the CEO) at BERG has summed it all up really nicely.
Noel Edmonds avoids death
Hot on the heels of the recent confrontation between Philter Factory and Jon Ronson comes this latest confrontation - with Noel Edmonds, who tells us that he met the dark forces behind a social media-orchestrated campaign to kill him.
We know what you're thinking. Why, on Earth, would anyone intend to harm the Mayor of Crinkley Bottom?
F**k yeah Martin Sorrell
Jesse Draper's Valley Girl Show has an interesting guest this week: none other than Sir Martin Sorrell.
Starting (humourously) with the story that it was the Male Menopause that propelled him into building WPP, Sorrell takes the whole thing in his stride.
