cities from zero book

With recent events in Tibet it got me thinking about how the rapid expansion of China has destroyed so many things in it's wake.

This seems to be another Tienanmen Square for the Chinese people. This book examines the way history, culture, and natural considerations are swept aside to produce cities from dust, planning from ground zero. It looks at Dubai and China as case studies.

I wonder if this architectural urban planning could be applied to the pathological pursuit of power that is the cultural wasteland of Chinese neighboring countries, horrifically it seems so.

Beattie becomes AKQA digital strategy chief
By Claire Billings

AKQA has hired Alistair Beattie, Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO’s director of digital strategy, as its head of strategic planning.
The appointment provides a boost to the agency’s planning credentials. AKQA has been without a top strategist since James Clifton vacated the role a year ago.
Beattie will oversee a team of 11 and work on developing the agency’s brand engagement strategies. He will also lead new business.

Skype Silence

Skype usage and Facebook traffic down by 5% in one week. People have had enough of constantly being poked and IMd to death.

Having to talk to lots of people in the US, Europe and Oz I couldn't live without skype.
