James Surridge - My Top 3 Websites


The web space we're invading!
Just some sites that Idealogy people are visiting that tick their boxes.

James Surridge - Director, Demand Strategy

http://www.johnlewis.com/
John Lewis mobile site - very easy to use, as a result - very dangerous! They still manage to keep some brand integrity through the functionality - that's the really cool part.

http://www.seadesign.co.uk/
SEA Design - I love what they do and the site is sooooooo clean!

http://www.audi.co.uk/
Audi - does what it says on the tin, and a wonderful configuration tool too.

Charlotte Blake - Finance Director

http://www.amazon.co.uk
I like amazon because the CD's, DVD's and books are usually cheaper and delivery is free. Saves time as you don't need to go to the shops. Send emails to you about stuff you may be interested in.

http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk
User friendly, lots of info, good maps. Has lots of child friendly info. They send regular email updates with 'what's on' info.

http://www.hsbc.co.uk/1/2/
Checking accounts, transfers, etc... User friendly, new security measures.

The hidden value of corporate blogs

Why a company’s blogs should mean more to them than just Google ratings…

The corporate blogosphere is a crowded and misunderstood place. Often an arena for semi-sensible ramblings, the rise in corporate blogging is yet to be met with a tried-and-trusted recipe for success. So, what’s it all about? And how can companies help maximise the value of their blogs?

Christmas TV ads 2012 – the Idealogy favourites

With just over a week to go until we’re all replete with festive trimmings and snoozing on the sofa in front of the telly, we thought we’d bring you our very favourite Christmas promos and adverts.

Christmas is a time for giving

For many a year now, companies have decided to for-go the tradition of sending Christmas cards or corporate gifts (or in some cases, both) and donate the money they would have spent to a charity of their choice.

Although we have sent out Christmas cards which a lot of you have enjoyed receiving (and thanks for great the feedback!) we have taken the decision to donate the money we would have spent on corporate gifts to two chosen charities.

Paul Wright - Operations Director

The older I get the more obsessed I become with the weather for some reason, BBC site on the whole is very good, some great content.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies
BBC again but this a great site for Harry, can keep him amused for at least 5 minutes which is good going, again some really good content.

http://www.play.com
Even though I'll be very upset when/if HMV go bust I still insist on ordering music and films from Play to save me getting off my a**.

No quarter given…. (or, where did those 3 months go?)

My name is Dan Ferrett (“go on, I dare you! It’s not like I haven’t heard them all before…) and in August I joined Idealogy as their new Office Manager.

Well, that was what the job description said but can I just say that my first 3 (and a bit) months have literally flown by. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would be involved with and in so much, so quickly. Having said that, I wouldn’t change it for the world!
