Awesome mix of tech and an amazing product that Adidas used for their Euro 2012.



Twibbon.com

Twibbon.com is the easiest and most powerful way to promote awareness of your cause on Twitter and Facebook. Started as a storm idea by @movingforwards and @brianbbrian, evolved into a hugely popular site with high levels of traffic. Twibbon is one of the key projects I work on at @stormideas.

Started an Open Source library to provide graphs based on the live data from Google Analytics.
