Here at GWS, we’re always on the look-out for an interesting story – whether it’s a news event, an exciting new design release or a useful tip from an expert in social networking.

Our weekly round-ups have featured top news from the worlds of social media, current affairs and art and design, and as 2010 draws to a close we’ve been reflecting on our favourite stories of the year. Here are our highlights:


Social media

 

World news

The Social Network (via The Guardian)

 

 Art & design

  • Hidden faces of the UK coastline - possibly the coolest use of Google we’ve come across.
  • Being Bristollians, we’ve had a lot to say about Banksy – a highlight for us was this opening to The Simpsons directed by the elusive artist himself.
  • @mashable have featured regularly in our weekly round-ups – we loved this article about the website designs that blew their minds...
  • One of our 2010 design favourites was It’s Our Water – a site seeking to raise awareness about the ‘(ab)use’ of Lake Michigan. Click here for the blog.
