Microsoft have confirmed they plan on using the Word rendering engine to display HTML emails in Outlook 2010. This means for the next 5 years your email designs will need tables for layout, have no support for CSS like float and position, no background images and lots more. […] Let’s use Twitter to send a clear message to Microsoft.
The campaign itself I’m not too fussed by (although we do send HTML emails at work, but if those emails don’t look nice in Outlook – and they work in Gmail/Hotmail – then that’s Outlook’s problem), but the site itself is pretty nifty with its real-time aggregation of Tweets. It reminds me of what we did on the Albert Hammond Jr. site, although doing via Twitter is pretty cool and something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now (probably using Twivatar just to make it easy).

This is mighty clever; the only plug I ever actually carry is my MacBook plug so if Apple would buy this and integrate into their cables asap that would be lovely…
Such a good song – it sounds ‘classic’ from the very first time you hear it.
We’ve always liked the idea of showing you photos taken in a particular place […] Today we’re bringing that ability to the smartphone mobile site. For those devices that support it (currently Android and the iPhone with the new 3.0 software), the Mobile Nearby page will figure out where you are in the world and show you photos that have been taken in the same area.
I had forgotten that the version of Safari that ships with iPhone OS 3 has location services built in, which is pretty darn awesome. Location services are the next big thing, and this is one of the key enablers.
