New York Times Hails Pod1 NYC

Ok ok ok, I’m exaggerating…we have a minuscule mention half way down this page that literally says:

“Kirna Zabête, a clothing retailer, named Pod1, London and New York, to develop an e-commerce Web site.”

Doesn’t link to us, or the client, but hey, it’s a start!

One small step for mankind and all that…

Lives not Knives

Grazia has started a campaign to raise awareness of the ever spiralling problem the British face with knife crime. This is in association with the Ben Kinsella fund.

Matches has partnered with Grazia and have created an exclusive set of t-shirts where all proceeds go to Charity. At the moment you’ll only see a sketch as the real gear has not yet arrived. Delivery will be within 2 weeks.

So go buy a t-shirt on Matches..

Yahoo to host Google Ads

In yet another twist in the seemingly never ending Yahoo Vs Microsoft take-over wrangle, Yahoo has announced that they will be ‘trialling’ Google’s AdSense for search service. This two week proposed trial will see Yahoo.com search results displaying Google ads alongside its own ads in the US.

The timing of this announcement couldn’t be more crucial as Microsoft looks to Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp to increase their financial leverage as they prepare to approach Yahoo’s shareholders directly if their £22.4 bn takeover bid isn’t accepted in the next three weeks.

The fact is this Yahoo trial with Google could be a clever way of proving that Microsoft have seriously undervalued the company by showing what kind of revenue Yahoo could potentially generate if they were to form a business relationship with Google.

Oh and in one final piece of what is becoming an ever more increasingly complicated puzzle Yahoo is also understood to be in talks with AOL in a deal which would involve AOL investing in Yahoo so enabling Yahoo to buy back some of its own stock!

A mechanical ballet for Kenwood

The new kMix Flash site has been developed by Pod1 to support the launch of Kenwood’s new range of products. The vision was to present the kMix products with a new perspective, to engage the user with a playful interface and to offer a sleek experience with smooth choreographic transitions, between the 3D sequences used to present each products of the range. We wanted this site to be a real immersive brand experience…

Thanks to the the team for their efforts and to Chris Christou from Youmeus Design for the CGI animations. Youmeus Design are the Industrial Designers who created some of the kMix products for Kenwood.
