Due to some of our outstanding talent being nominated for the Webby’s this year we felt it was only right to rave about it…

“Be a part of The 14th Annual Webby Awards and let your voice be heard as a participant in the Webby People’s Voice Voting.

The Webby People’s Voice Awards is one of the few major awards that invite the public to participate by allowing them to vote for their favorite nominees. The Webby People’s Voice honors excellence in categories including Websites, Interactive Advertising, Online Film & Video and Mobile. With their unique platform and streamlined voting system, users can easily take part in the ultimate battle for web supremacy.

Last year, nearly half a million votes were cast and commenters showed an unrivaled passion for their favorite nominees.”

Go on, have a look and vote for your favourite - http://webby.aol.com/

Glug at Pick Me Up, Wednesday 28th April 7.00 -10.30pm.

We are bringing together fantastic talent showing at the fair, including design legends Jonathan Barnbrook and Anthony Burrill as well as Chrissie Macdonald, Mr Bingo, Jiggery Pokery and Emily Forgot to talk about 5 favourite things that inspire and inform their work. We thought Glug and Pick Me Up was a perfect fit and a chance for Gluggers to come and party in this great space.

Full line up includes:

Jonathan Barnbrook
Anthony Burrill
Michael Marriott
Chrissie Macdonald
Mr Bingo
Jiggery Pokery
Emily Forgot
Rose Stallard
Print Club London
Sam Arthur
Sarah King

The quick-fire talks will be followed by VJ Lucifer Visuals and Glug’s very own DJ Adrian Dixon entertaining the crowds on the big screen and of course there will be a bar open throughout the evening.

As per usual Glug is being sponsored by Digital Gurus, this month we will have a special event for the night, so look out for that and be sure to say hello to everyone in the team.

Whether you are a loyal design follower, or just interested in seeing and hearing from some of the most exciting creatives around, this is the perfect excuse to come to our biggest Glug yet in this amazing space.

Tickets £7.50 from Somerset House here.
Doors open 7pm – 10.30pm

Look forward to seeing you down there.

Apologies to all for the loooOOooong silence from the DG crew this year… our industrious blogger has been on vacation chilling in the Bahamas and sipping on a few mohito’s or two! ha, only kidding…

to be honest, It’s not for the want of trying but we’ve been massively busy getting out there on the front lines, the new girls on the block are now not so new and we have a couple more additions to the Digital Gurus team…

please keep in touch for more updates throughout the coming months… where we’ll be sharing some of our insight, a potential new move for DG, and introducing you to the rest of the new team… in the mean time we’ll keep putting up some of the ‘neat’ things we come across on the web!
