The iPhone is the new Internet Explorer 6.
“The iPhone has become an obsession. If we don’t pay attention, we’ll have a mobile web that only works on the iPhone. And then we’ll have the real mobile web that wasn’t made by us and doesn’t give a shit about web standards and best practices.”
I am not sure what this info graphic video is telling me, but it sure is pretty !

Is the future of video conferencing AR ?
“Logos are dead.”
“When you look at brands like O2, its success lies in the richness and depth of its brand world (bubbles, blue grad etc.). This forms a flexible branded platform that is instantly recognisable — you could remove the logo and still know the brand. The logo in itself is not the ‘hero’.”

A Decade in Search: Highlights from 2000-2009 in the world of search engine marketing.

Download The Weather Channel Android App from TV!
Google’s been doing some pretty slick stuff with QR codes lately, and now it looks like The Weather Channel’s getting in on the fun — it’s running a little on-screen graphic prompting Android owners to download their app by scanning their TV screens. Sure, it’s not the craziest thing in the world — it just takes you to the Android market listing — but it’s certainly fun, and one of the more mainstream uses of QR codes we’ve seen in a while.

Keiichi Matsuda’s film, Augmented (hyper)Reality: Domestic Robocop, offers a glimpse of an alternate universe, with augmented reality cranked up to the next level…
Matsuda is currently studying at London’s Bartlett School of Architecture as part of the Unit 15 group, where students use animation and motion graphics to investigate new architectural possibilities.
“The latter half of the 20th century saw the built environment merged with media space, and architecture taking on new roles related to branding, image and consumerism,” writes Matsuda on his Vimeo page.
“Augmented reality may recontextualise the functions of consumerism and architecture, and change in the way in which we operate within it. [This is] a film produced for my final year Masters in Architecture, part of a larger project about the social and architectural consequences of new media and augmented reality.”
