How Google lost their mojo
I’ve met David a couple of times now and its incredible just how he visualises complex datasets in to beautiful visuals. Oh and buy his book, its brills.

Logo mash-ups, part 1
The recent news that the broadcaster BSkyB (who trades as SKY in the UK) is getting all hot under the collar about Skype’s continuing rise in popularity around the world raises all manner of interesting questions. Not least of which being how you can possibly claim to ‘own’ three letters which are patently part of another word entirely.
That set us off, visually speaking, and led to the mashed up logo we offer you at the top of this post and then others – some patently ridiculous, but others, well…

Logo mash-ups part 2
We have received dozens of logo mash-ups from all over the world following last week’s post. Here is our selection of the best ones so far.
Several people had the temerity to mess with the johnson banks brand, or our logos. Such cheek. The one above is from Stuart Price. Meanwhile look what Chris Jeffreys did to our Shelter logo.
We hope that Chris’s employer isn’t reading this because we got an avalanche of great ones from him.
And this one too. Now, back to work Chris.
A lot of people seemed to have, er, sex on the brain, including Mike Reed.
Here are some sportswear mash-ups from Andy Thorne and Amanda Grace Liu.
Food, drink and er, manga from Leigh Dunks and that man Jeffreys again.
Big Macs and TV? Perfect combination really (thanks to Matthew Robinson).
And to end part two, Obama and O2 (the British phone brand) from Ed, Chris and John at Lost in the Forest. Great stuff.
