Some great NEWS.

After several months of freelancing, the lovely Jo Glover has decided to join the Wieden + Kennedy Design department full time – fantastic!
If you see Jo down the pub be sure to charm her with a congratulatory bottle of WKD (orange flavour) and  ask her to tell you the infamous story about her first design job in Burnley.

Welcome and congratulations, Jo.

Nokia N8 ad innovators: the solderin’ skaters

Here's another of the projects featured in our launch TV spot for the Nokia N8. Each one is a real-life example of innovative hacks and modifications folks have devised using Nokia tech. Because it's not about the technology, it's what you do with it.

Keywan Tonekaboni, Nick Thomas, Jan Anlouff, Sebastian Zehe, Erik Weitnauer and Alexander Lenhard. Together they're the Solderin' Skaters.

With pressure pads, motion sensors, some intricate coding and a Nokia N900 in the skater's pocket, their real-world skate game (Tilt 'n' Roll) can recognise tricks and award points if they're successfully completed. Nice.

See more projects at the Nokia Nseries blog.
