PunkLogic is us

Long time no blogging. I have teamed up with Jackson Beale to form PunkLogic. We have been running the Creative Alliance Communications Team and found out, that we are a pretty good fit.

Looking up – update:

Tim has just opened a blog can and there will be good words and chuckles aplenty.

US Primary, social computing and attention to detail.

The quality, functionality and sophistication of Obama’s website and Clinton’s website blow me away. The blogs, the shops, the features, the use of social computing… – both candidates are doing well and setting very high standards. The attention to detail especially with Obama’s online campaign are astounding – check the well design, coherent, custom made icon set!

And check their respective flickr sites – Clinton here, Obama here.
BOTH campaigns are running a photo commentary on flickr. BUT check the number of contacts and see how the Obama campaign blazes ahead again in the ‘attention to detail’ department.

GTD: Increased Productivity with Firefox Extensions

Found a great list of firefox plug-ins for ‘Getting Things Done’ on LifeDEv – a site about ‘Personal development that focuses on creativity, productivity and GTD.’

I’ll start with better gmail and remember the milk for gmail and will work my way down the list – once my new laptop has arrived!
