Looking for love? Doughnut company has the answer
Monday, 11th February 2013 at 12:57pm
If you're looking for love on this Valentine's Day then Krispy Kreme may have the answer: they have once again released their Love Roulette game on their Facebook page and website.
The game is a bit of fun, matching you with one of your Facebook friends, regardless of gender, preference or relationship status (we were matched with married people and those of the same gender on some attempts), and then it offers you a voucher to get a free doughnut when you buy one of their new Valentine's Day doughnuts.
A clever idea to help promote their new doughnuts and inspire you to buy one for that special person in your life!
Play the game on Facebook here or the website here. Enjoy!

Ever wanted to get your own back on your pretentious friends on Facebook - well this is the app for you."Mitsubishi Unpretentious" analyses the content from your friends' Facebook pages to see which are your most pretentious friends and then runs them over with a speeding 2013 Outlander Sport.

Fifth Wall app interacts with performer
Sunday, 1st July 2012 at 9:39am
A new app for performing arts publication 2wice called “Fifth Wall” takes interactivity to another level, allowing you to interact with performers by moving your iPad screen.It was created in collaboration with the choreographer Jonah Bokaer and 2wice publisher Patsy Tarr and takes advantage of the unique spatial and physical parameters of the iPad. In the app, Bokaer engages with the edges of the iPad screen and as users interact with the iPad, the performance responds to the movement of the user, flipping when the screen is turned, or changing when the surface is swiped.
A great use of apps to engage an audience.
See the video of the making of the app below and click here to download.
