Google’s new interface
Being into Web Design myself, I always get excited when some page I visit on a daily basis, gets a facelift. As far as I can remember, I don’t think I’ve ever seen much change in Google‘s interface. But in the last couple of days, Google treated us among other little details, with a new search [...]
Google goggles
I just ran through that video explaining the principles of Google’s “visual search app” called Google goggles to be run on their own Android phone Operating System. The video sums it up pretty well: through it’s camera, Google goggles transforms your smart phone into a hand-held Optical Character Recognition device. But more than just a simple OCR, [...]
Google Chrome speed tests
Have you seen this viral video “scientifically” demonstrating the rendering speed of the Google Chrome browser? If you can’t get enough, here’s the making of. It’s pretty funny to read all the comments underneath the video. I agree certain people might get confused when it comes to the speed of their internet browser. People should [...]

Google Wave invitations
As a Google Wave preview user, Google Wave gave me a bunch of invitations to send, end of October. They gave me 6 more a couple of days ago. I sent some to my friends but most people haven’t even heard of it or just aren’t interested. So, if you are interested and would like [...]

Due to the ongoing success of Facebook, the old Network system‘s no longer relevant due to the size of those networks. Therefore, they’re building this new system that’s going to allow us [...]

PS3 / Facebook integration
I noticed with the latest Playstation®3 firmware update (3.10) a few days ago, that there was a Facebook logo in the Account Management menu. I went straight to it, to see what the h*ll that Facebook icon is doing here, in my PS3 interface. It says it’s supposed to link your PlayStation account to your Facebook account to [...]

We did a lot of email marketing campaigns in the company I used to work for in London but I was only in charge of the design and never had to worry about how it’s being sent. It’s only until recently that I needed to search for an e-marketing tool for one onf my clients. There [...]
