4. BBC Headline Hunt
The BBC's Radio 2 Online site will be launching an online companion to Ken Bruce's comical mid-morning Headline Hunt segment, devised and built by inframes.com.
We guarantee it'll give you a good laugh so check out http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/ken_bruce/ next week.
5. Bobbie Williams meets Birtney Speers
Have you seen the online shopping mall we designed and built for Worldpop, The Global Pop Network?
With the emphasis on fun while you shop, there's some nice Flash animation featuring caricatures of stars as, ahem, you've never seen them before.
We were also responsible for the complex back-end development, which allows the non-technical staff to update the editorial, prices and so on.
Just click the 'shop' button when you visit http://www.worldpop.com/
6. WIN WIN WIN!
We've been running some great competitions over the last few weeks. If your company would like to offer us some prizes for a quiz giveaway, please drop us a line.
If you're a horror fan, better hurry to What The Papers Say right now because time's running out to win one of ten copies of House on Haunted Hill on VHS.
Alternatively, drop in next week when we'll be giving away copies of Fun Lovin' Criminals' new album.
