Happy Friday.
Have you noticed how digital technology is increasingly becoming apart of our everyday experience. Yes indeed, the digital world definitely no longer remains on our desktop. Check out some of the latest examples of digital installations, augmented reality and mobile creative below. Enjoy a digital weekend!
When I started using Social Media, back in I can’t even remember when, it didn’t really bother me that everyone I knew saw everything I did and I saw everything they did. It was fun! The ability to be able to speak to everyone and catch up with old friends was exciting. Yet, over the past few months, for some reason I want to be able to control who sees what, and I don’t think I’m alone.
Apple have always had the view that despite calling software the “soul” of their company, in order to make great software you must also make your own hardware. Well it looks like Google are now taking a leaf out of Apple’s book in their acquisition of Motorola’s mobile phone division.
Social TV seems like a bit of an oxymoron doesn’t it? What could possibly be social about plonking yourself down on the couch and watching the tube? Well these days a lot of us are watching TV while simultaneously talking about it online.

You can now search on google using an image. Go to google images and drag drop your image into the search bar. The results are not bad! Your image can be from online or from your desktop.
Working at a digital agency, I’ve just about had enough of the scorn of the iphone and android users as I whip out my stone-age, old-reliable, falling apart nokia. But which gang to join? Each is certain about their choice, but unable to give definite answers why. “Because it’s way better” doesn’t help me make an informed choice.
Well, isn’t it nice to see the Catholic Church embrace change.
Galileo would not have been too impressed by this app. Not believing that the Earth is the centre of the universe isn’t on the apps list of sins.
It’s been a long time since my last confession, but I’m sure it was back in that time when I was worried that I was endanger of going blind if I did not repent. For many rambling off the usual list of sins every month to a stranger in a dark box was unappealing.
So this app has been designed with me and others sinners in mind who have not partaken in the sacrament of reconciliation in a long time. The logic behind the app is that it will make the journey back to the confessional a bit easier and re-light a lapsed faith.
It’s not quite the new year, but I thought I’d take the opportunity to review what’s impressed us in 2010. We had the Chilean Miners being rescued, the Big Freeze and the rise of Justin Bieber. (Peggy told me to put that in). But we also had the launch of the the long awaited iPad and the iPhone 4. And even a movie about Facebook, how times have changed.
