The handbag. Essential for women but in many ways it’s still a mystery to men. Why so big? Why so many? Why so much money? BUT, a lot can be garnered from what’s inside a handbag. Insights into behaviour, lifestyle, beliefs, extra-curricular activities etc. And now you can let Flickr do the hard workContinueContinue reading “handbag audit”

we’re all europeans now… yeah, right
I’m in Holland again today after an oh my god early flight into Schiphol. I perused a couple of the free rags that were scattered on the train from Schiphol to Den Haag (sitting upstairs of course – why can’t I do this at home???) and discovered that there had been a concert/festival of sortsContinueContinue reading “we’re all europeans now… yeah, right”
walk london
The tube was too hot. I’d already missed my train. So I got out and walked from Tottenham Court Road to Waterloo. And I took these pictures from the Embankment bridge over a very brown Thames. London always looks nicer in the sun. Shame the camera on my Sony Ericsson XYZR2-D2-whatever it’s called isn’tContinueContinue reading “walk london”
(buzz) stuff and things 20.06.07
Buzz 1: word of mouth. Social infectiousness. Jibber jabber. Call it what you will. Bzz Agent have been going for a while Stateside and have recently started up in the UK. Does it work? Well, as Kevin Keegan once said, “if you don’t buy a ticket you can’t win the raffle.” (How we missContinueContinue reading “(buzz) stuff and things 20.06.07”

I can’t help thinking that the people on the left look like they’re having more fun. Image taken on a trip oop North to Gullivers Theme Park with the nieces and nephews.

Logo a-go-go! After the fiasco of that logo, comes more news that the banking institution known as Barclays is highly likely to change their logo for fear of offending the Dutch if the proposed merger with ABN Amro takes place. While the logo causes less visual intolerance than the 2012 thing, it does strike aContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 19.06.07”
digital gets kidnapped
All will be revealed during Cannes week, if they win an award. If they don’t who knows. Will the ransom be paid? Enjoy!
stuff and things 15.06.07
Forget wikipedia, watch videopedia instead. 5min.com has short, instructional video clips on a whole lot of stuff. (source: iconoculture) Swap the plane for the train & get a first class ticket with Virgin Trains. The bearded one likes green stuff. Interesting that despite staggering out of Euston tube station each day onto the main concourseContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 15.06.07”
stuff and things 14.06.07
I love this image of social circles that I found on bnox courtesy of Philippe. Explore the links in the bnox post, you will be rewarded. 60% of British bosses dream of sex during powerpoint presentations. See, it does make you go blind. “Abby is suffering a painful bum from being over-spanked” is possibly oneContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 14.06.07”
