TWEET

agency quotes

It is no secret that I love @agencyquotes. All of those tweets capture working in digital perfectly. I love announcing to the office that what they have just said is going to live forever on the interweb. They have just released their first book and I am super keen to get it to see if any of my colleagues’ musings made the list. I encourage you to follow them. Reading that time line will brighten up any day. But even more so, start sending in your tweets #ThingsYouHearInAgencies.

DID YOU KNOW

When the unable to connect dinosaur appears in Chrome, hit the space bar and you can play a game while you wait for the page to load. Ensure that the dinosaur jumps over cacti by hitting the space bar. This is a nice way to pass the time and it reduces your level of death by slow internet rage.

APP

iCorrect

This app/feature won’t let you send messages until you use correct spelling and grammar. It’s meant for kids, but I think autocorrect has been responsible for some pretty embarassing (yet hilarious) fails and this would be great for adults. WTF? Not a chance. (iOS)

Sometimes I feel really old when I have to google WTF “on fleek” means. Youtuber Riyadh K gets his dad to guess some internet slang and hilarity ensues. (NSFW aka make sure your headphones are on)

I'd love to chat to you some more.

 

I usually send out a weekly mailer with a recap of blog posts but also some personal anecdotes. If you want to know about competitions or just catch up in a more personal setting then you might like to receive the mailer.
