communicating a product” - Gareth Kay

Social Media Projects
We leverage various platforms (iPhone, APIs,...) to create content &
experiences that punch through the noise, for example:
:: Campaigns that integrate Twitter into a live event video streamed over the net
:: Innovative & useful Apps - for example apps where you can see the influence &
profiles of who is with you in a room
