YouTube – Shift Happens UK Video
YouTube – Shift Happens UK.
It’s been around a while, but this UK version of Karl Fisch’s original ‘Did you Know?’ presentation is still pretty informative and does go along way to demonstrating just how fast things are moving these days.
XMPie and the “Missing Plug-in” issue
I have seen several posts and blogs reference the error message that designers sometime get when they open up a document stating that “XMPBackEnd5.pln.InDesignPlugin” is missing.
This is caused when the XMPie uDirect or uCreate plug-in has been installed on the creator’s system and a document created and sent to another. Even if the XMPie plug-in is not used to personalise a document this...
Elixia recruited over 2,500 new members worth over €1.5 million in annual revenue using XMPie
When Wittusen & Jensen purchased XMPie back in 2007 one of the first things that they did was to create and run a self-promotional campaign talking about their new capabilities. This is something that I strongly suggest that ever provider in this field does; as the results can be lucrative.
One of the bites that W&J got from this campaign was from Elixia; a leading health and fitness chain...

Jubels on Tour Campaign recognised by the PODi
, Jubels Communication over in Amsterdam have proven; once again that in many cases it’s a simple, well thought out campaign that gets the best results. Many companies think that you need a grand and complex concept when producing a multi-channel communications piece; with vast quantities of data.
This is a relative myth. In the vast majority of cases you just need simple, clean, yet attention grabbing...
Is television a dying media?
With today’s announcements of ITV slashing 600 jobs in the UK as their profits down 41% year on year; is there a bigger issue here. Sure there could be a proportion of this announcement that is related to the global economy; but is there another element?
I have long lost count of the vast number of TV channels that are being broadcast. With the majority of these relying on advertising revenue to...
I finally understand the Credit Crisis!
This beautiful video from Jonathan Jarvis finally helps visual how we all got into this mess in the first place. Great!
