I've just finished writing a piece for Wired about weeknotes so it'd be rather sad not to actually write one myself. But to be honest, it's last thing on a Sunday, I've been writing all weekend and I'm not especially in the mood.
Things I did this week:
Lots of PowerPoint, lots of email.
Highlight of the week:
Ben Terrett's Newspaper Club won in the Graphics category in the Design Of The Year thing at the Design Museum. Which I'm especially pleased about because, if anything, what we do is remove the graphic design from things.
We've had a few people tell us that the marketing strategy for Newspaper Club is naive (which is fair, really, because it's non-existent) but so far we've been featured on Radio 4's PM programme, BBC 2's Culture Show and we've been mentioned approvingly by the Prime Minister. That's not because of clever marketing, that's because we're making something interesting and we talk about it without overselling it.
Lowlight of the week:
Got dates on lots of invoices wrong and had to re-do them.
