This is my blog as seen by Wordle, “Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.” Link »

Here’s a great insight into what it takes to start a new design studio from the lads at Thoughtful (great name too). To quote: “One of our ex-employers would to say ‘to succeed in business, you need three things: balls, luck and hardwork’”. Link.

It’s that time of the month again folks.. ‘Glug Time’. Friends + their friends + pub + beer + pool = Glug.

So if you work in the London creative industry you’re more than welcome to pop along and rack up your balls or drink up in the huuuuge beer garden in the Sun.
