We Have a Sister
Pokenewyork.com has had a makeover. She now looks similar to Pokelondon.com. Which we hope is a good thing. They're not quite identical twins, but there is a bunch of shared DNA. Perhaps they're more like connected mutant offspring spawned from some evil gene-mangling experiment. In a nice way.
Go and see the lovely work they're doing and find out more about them.
It's Webby Time Again
If your job involves doing things with the Internet you might like to know that it's time to start thinking about whether or not you've done something that's good enough to win a Webby award.
WWF in the News
If you were watching the BBC last night you could barely move for WWF branded paper boats and planes - well not exactly. But they were on News at 10 and Newsnight which is pretty good.
Was really nice to see them being used as a visual icon for the issue as we'd always hoped.

Poke Get Respect
Just like the youth of today we're well into gettin' respect. So we were pleased not to get dissed in the New Media Age Top 100.
Although we're not high rollers in the chart of earners (bear in mind we're relatively little), we do however score pretty well in the 'respect' chart.
Looking at the list we're in fine company and not bad given that towards the top end of the chart we're younger and smaller than most. It looks like we're 4th, but we're not, right, we're joint third, and we're going to make sure that everyone knows it.
Thank you to everyone who respected us in the survey.
All Hail Waterfall
It is with great pleasure that we announce our very own Simon Waterfall has been crowned President of the D&AD. For those of you who are unsure it stands for Design and Art Directors, not Dungeons and Dragons as has been speculated round these parts. Having said that Simon has been spotted wearing some pretty odd cape-like things recently.
We're hoping this means we'll get a bunch of pencils next year, but he reckons he's not allowed to swing it.
Seriously though it's great news and we're hoping that he can help to push the digital agenda in some interesting and productive ways over the next year. For the benefit of all of the whole industry and human-kind in general.
