I’m a little bit freaked out by this but the upshot is that Google are releasing their own javascript based browser. According to their blog the browser is being released in beta in over 100 countries today.

Thanks to Daniel for this.

If you have a Windows PC, here’s how to get delicious working on the iphone so that you can tag pages, presumably the process is similar on a MAC. There is a quick tip video on how to do this somewhere but it is out of date and, as I found out, overly simplified. It also involves overuse of the word ‘booya’.

Install safari

Go to http://delicious.com/

Log in

Go to http://delicious.com/help/bookmarklets

Drag the links as instructed under the heading ‘Safari’

To make the bookmarks quickly available and not hidden away in a folder in you iphone bookmarks:
In Safari go to Bookmarks>Show all bookmarks
Drag the delicious links from the bookmarks bar across and under BOOKMARKS on the left
Delete all the default stuff if you don’t want it

Close Safari

Open ITunes

Click on your iPhone and go to the info page

Scroll down to Web Browser and check sync bookmarks with Safari

Sync

Log in to delicious on your iphone

Go to bed as it’s way past your bedtime now

Thanks to Kai for the tip on making screengrabs on the iPhone, we can now reveal The Brand Union webclip icon for those wielding a normalPhone.

For those interested in how to make a screengrab – hold down the home button then quickly press the power button, the screen will flash and store the image in your photos.

You can now add thebrandunion.com to your iPhone or iPod Touch homepage should you desire. You should get a nice shiny webclip icon and not just a screengrab of the home page.

I know it’s not digital, or branding per se… but what it is, is Patrick Swayze as a centaur.

The webby awards were announced recently, and with almost 70 categories there are plenty of interesting sites that both won awards and were shortlisted. To save you scrolling through a list of about 500 websites, I’d thought I’d post a selection of my favourites on here.

The first is the ‘People’s Voice’ winner in the Associations category – America’s Favourite Architecture. Beautifully designed, and with some stunning high-resolution photography, the site lists America’s favourite 150 pieces of arhitecture. You can sort by name, architect, or ranking – essentially a league table of people’s favourites. By choosing your favourite buildings, you can influence the overall standings. (In case you were wondering, the Empire State building is currently #1).

Awesomely informative rap about good web design practice…

There seems to be a whole series of these including lyrical advice on issues such as successful online marketing and pay per click campaigns. The ‘Poetic Prophet’ has also invented a dance called The Page Rank.
