Wishful Thinking
December 11th, 2007 by mattThis is a blog written by a guy who helps professionals in the creative sector maximise their creative time by more effectively managing other important tasks encountered in the work day. It’s a really great, easily accessible site with a 32 page downloadable guide that takes no time to read. What’s also a real bonus is that the guy writing works in the UK, so nothing’s lost in translation like it sometimes can be in an American article.

FutureLab: a seriously useful blog
December 5th, 2007 by matt
This is the very best blog for digital marketing I have found so far. It has something for everyone – design, innovation, strategy – the works. From how ‘Greening Your Brand in a Web 2.0 World’ and ‘Who clicks on ads? And what might this mean?’ through to bleeding edge reports from top industry types on every topic of our industry – it is a great way to stay on to of what is going on.
Check out FutureLab here.
