CEO dear – job titles to cringe for
9 September 2015Chief. Executive. Officer. Now, that’s a list of impressive words. Add them all together and you’ve got a phenomenally impressive job title. The type of title that means the prime minister is your assistant and God is your right-hand man. Yep, you must be really important. Oh, hang on. Did we say important? No, that’s [...]
Get mobile or get gone
11 March 2015Is your website mobile-friendly? We don’t mean does it give your iPhone a hug. We mean do you have a specific custom-built mobile version of your website, or has your site been made responsive to enable easy access for mobile phones and tablets? Traditionally, websites were designed to be shown on desktop or laptop computers, [...]
D’ya think thesaurus?
10 March 2015What do you call a one-eyed dinosaur? If it’s a mono-ocular Mesozoic reptile, we need to talk. English is the greatest language in the world. Bafflingly simple, subtly diverse, built upon layers of meaning and intricate distinctions. As an official language in 80 countries, and unofficially spoken in loads more, you’d be right in calling [...]

You’ve created a sharp design, written loads of terrific content and added exactly the right SEO (or whatever we’re calling it these days) to get the site on the [...]
Killer packaging
19 January 2015Smoking kills. Yep, it’s pretty obvious. About 100,000 British people die every year from puffing on cancer sticks. That sucks. So when you see a fag packet or tobacco tin wearing the Smoking kills slogan in big, bold lettering, what’s your first thought? Is it, “Oh my God, smoking kills! I didn’t know that! I’d [...]
Bah humbug!
24 December 2014Merry Christmas to our friends, colleagues, clients, suppliers and contributors. Thanks for all the help, support and confidence during 2014 – here’s hoping next year is even better. Of course, a Spoon Media blog post wouldn’t be traditional without a bit of a work-related banter, and what better time to be traditional than good old [...]
We’ve got a cream for that
7 November 2014Ignore Agatha Christie. Never mind Inspector Morse. No, surely Embarrassing Bodies is the greatest of all TV mysteries. We mean, why on earth would anyone appear on a programme designed to show the world their stinkiest, most hideous maladies? I’ve got a boil on my balls the size of an ostrich egg, and it’s too [...]
