Go digit, Go!
See that down there. No, down there in the bottom right hand corner. Yes, the orange thing. That means that middledigit.net is taking part in ‘the world’s first internet balloon race’ – Balloonacy – a spectacular idea from Poke (yes them again, promise I’m not being bribed to write about them) for Orange which definitely [...]
Son of Derek
Spot the Bull is back. And it’s better. This time it’s not Derek, it’s Winston (Son of Derek). There’s more features and it’s still a great idea incredibly well executed where you bet on the location of a cow (calculated via GPS and plotted live on a grid overlay on a webcam feed) in a [...]

Good things should never end
Nice work for Orange done by Poke. Like it a lot – been having a good play around.
Actually a quick idea too. There’s loads of content being generated by people from Poke evey single day. Why don’t you just aggregrate all content from everyone on the main Poke site rather than having an “obligatory blog” [...]

The word farms of the web
A great article by Danny Bradbury published on the Guardian yesterday – “The growing number of websites that mix and match low-quality articles produced by amateurs in order to generate traffic is causing concern”.

ASCII coded geeky curtains
I love stuff like this where geekery makes its way into the real world. Here’s a lovely pair of curtains complete with ASCII tree graphic, found via the amazing We Make Money Not Art blog, ran by Regine Debatty who I had the pleasure of bumping into at PSFK London a while back. Um, how [...]
