The elements of simplicity
This video presentation by BJ Fogg from Stanford University really caught my eye today. Whilst it's simple to say not everything is simple, from a User Experience point of view, it's not always simple to say why that is, in a meaningful or quantitative way.
I found this psycological framework, 'loose' as Fogg insists it is, to be pretty interesting as a way to enter into the realms of why 'less is often more'.

London office twelve months on....
Beautifully proving that time flies when you're having fun, we suddenly realised today that the London office (well, South East office) has been open for a year this week.
We've made a home for ourselves in an old mill by the river, fed ducks, waved at barges and even done some work along the way.
February saw us avoid the great flood, where for a brief moment it looked like we'd have to raise our entire network six inches off the ground as the waters threatened to sweep in. Fortunately someone opened a lock somewhere and all was good.
A few photos of our surroundings and the weather that's been thrown at us can be seen at: http://bit.ly/1YUTdp

Facebook is so - yesterday....
According to a survey in the US, the average age of a Facebook user is now an ancient 33 - meaning today's youths are flocking over to have a good Twitter instead:

Parents Support Hub on the way
We're delighted to have been commissioned by the Family Information Service at Bristol City Council to create a new web site and information hub under the banner "Support for Parents".
The new site will help the local authority meet legislation set out under the Every Child Matters programme, and will allow parents to find information about service providers and groups that can offer the support they need.
Initially we'll be working on a new logo and brand for the project before looking to launch the new content managed site in December 2009.
