Cashou Picture Research
Cashou Picture Research needed a new look and a facility for quickly serving thousands of image files to clients. This involved producing a new identity and website, allowing clients to view slideshows of images and search image captions quickly.
A browser from Google
5 In 1995, Marc Andreessen of Mozilla accurately summarised the threat netscape (and the web) posed to Microsoft by saying it would one day reduce Windows to a set of poorly debugged device drivers.
It looks like Google Chrome will be a browser to watch, as Google plan to do exactly what Netscape threatened to do in 19955 – render desktop operating systems irrelevant for the majority of users. Gears, and faster javascript libraries, will help drive people to use more and more web applications instead of desktop applications; as the difference between the two becomes less and less discernible. Shame their beta is to be windows only.
Also a very interesting way to market an exclusively online product, from a company which is traditionally all about the web – they’ve sent out hard copies of a comic rather than posting it online. It’s a beautifully executed comic in any case and worth a read if you’re interested in browsers.
