The follow-up to our hugely successful Banksy Bristol Tour app is here! This time we've moved away from Banksy's home town and we're poking around dark corners of the nation's capital for the Banksy London Tour iPhone app.

Apple have very kindly placed the app in the New & Noteworthy section at the top of the App Store. Thanks Apple! ;)

The book itself is offers advice for improving your working life, which it does in a hugely entertaining way. Of course the site needed to reflect the energy and boldness of the book and we feel we've nailed the design and implementation.

Here's something just for fun. Party Forfeits collects, categorises and rates (by severity!) forfeits for drinking games and more sober gatherings, such as kid's parties.

One of the cool features is that visitors can create and print a custom list of forfeits. Choose from tags such as "adult", "kids", "messy" or even "embarrassment". If you have any suggestions then use the submit form.
