Itzo, content creation

Working with a team across three different time zones, on the MVP of an app whose aim is to spread trusted, timely, and local COVID-19 news and guidelines to under-served minority-language communities.

Pitching just the right brand voice for what is necessarily a diverse target user group; switching back and forth between languages for the prototype content; and keeping up with the fast-moving pace of the pandemic and government reactions to it - all these were always going to need agile and creative solutions. Luckily that's what we and the Linqua team thrive on, and we loved every minute of it.

15 best images from Google Street View

Google Street View , launched in 2007, is a technology featured in Google Maps and Google Earth and provides panoramic views from positions along many streets in the world. Google cars around the globe take photos of pretty much everything, with the result being funny, embarrassing or even dramatic at time.

Can't find a caption for this... Priceless! Busted on camera! The typical women fight in Russia. A drink too many? When that time comes... Perfect timing! This is believed to be a fake. Flying?
