Just master the next step and continue moving in the right direction."

[London Play @londonplay]

Hooray! No charges for #playstreets in Croydon. Or in any of the many other London boroughs where residents can apply. So what are you waiting for? Convert your street into a temporary space for play and socialising this summer - ask us how!

"More effort is wasted doing things that don’t matter than is wasted doing things inefficiently.

Elimination is the highest form of optimization."

The worst part of netflix and possibly why I use it so little these days.

[Megan Quinn @msquinn]

Netflix auto-playing previews for every single show is one of the most pronounced user-hating experiences online in a while. I get that it helps juice the audience count, but it turns browsing into a game of hot potato.

A #north arrow is used on #maps to indicate which direction north is. It is not always necessary to show a north arrow, but it is useful if your intended audience may not know the orientation of the geographic area shown https://t.co/y1jZx41183 #AZCartography

"I’m a huge believer that creativity is not 9 to 5. It is a constant 24 hour job. And when you’re involved in a big project you have to be out in the world, exposed to meeting all sorts of people and seeing all kinds of things non-stop." - Easy to forget

If anyone else is going on Saturday and wants to catch up, drop me a DM!

Only a few days left before I go to the London Coffee Festival - too cliché for a designer to be excited about this? #LondonCoffeeFestival #LCF18

Consumers in the U.S. spend as much time engaging with digital content as they spend sleeping. See why personalized content is mere table stakes for breaking through the noise. https://t.co/xM8tMitu0b

Here is the answer to yesterday's hexmap.... it was roundabouts! Those hotspots were Milton Keynes and Swindon. Thanks again to @OrdnanceSurvey for the data and #GeoDataViz toolkit.

You can look at Swindon's magic roundabout in Aerial Digimap, with imagery from @GetmappingPLC
