Disguise bothering me...

2008-07-17T09:16:00.000-07:00

The blessed Comic Sans

2008-07-16T09:15:00.000-07:00

One man and his blog

2008-07-15T09:14:00.000-07:00

Don't be Evil

2008-07-14T09:13:00.000-07:00

Virtual reality?

2008-07-11T09:12:00.000-07:00

Creative Commons?

2008-07-10T09:10:00.000-07:00

Is voice recognition setting you up?

2008-07-09T09:09:00.000-07:00

This was our very first cartoon for the Prompt newsletter:

Addicted to games?

2008-07-08T09:03:00.000-07:00

Tearing my hair out

2008-06-20T08:25:00.000-07:00

This scene was (more or less) overheard by Hazel in real life.

Leading edge business

2008-06-18T08:22:00.000-07:00

A tribute to one of the many buzzwords (or buzz phrases) we must grapple with as we translate marketing and technology speak into plain English.

The geekiest cartoon ever

2008-06-16T08:19:00.000-07:00

This must be the geekiest and most niche cartoon ever. To fully appreciate it, you need an understanding of the Prisoner TV series and Javascript error codes, and probably need to have called your grandmother 'Nan'.

A phishing attack

2008-06-13T08:17:00.000-07:00

This is one of our favourite cartoons at Prompt Towers. The expression on the fish is fantastic. We've had it blown up for the wall in the copywriting office.

Dongle

2008-06-11T08:15:00.000-07:00

The uncertainty of a market researcher

2008-06-09T08:03:00.000-07:00

If Captain Picard was a blogger

2008-05-19T08:38:00.000-07:00

If Quasimodo was a blogger

2008-05-16T03:59:00.000-07:00

If Oscar Wilde was a blogger

2008-05-15T09:47:00.000-07:00

If Descartes was a blogger

2008-05-14T09:28:00.000-07:00

If Newton was a blogger

2008-05-13T03:36:00.001-07:00

We created a short series of cartoons about famous people being bloggers, an idea we might well revisit in future. You might have already seen If Robinson Crusoe was a blogger. We'll run another cartoon from this series each day for the rest of this week.

Security holes

2008-05-01T10:00:00.000-07:00

This is one of our favourites, written by Dave and illustrated expertly as ever by Charlotte.

Piracy: the eternal battle

2008-04-30T02:04:00.000-07:00

This cartoon shows the constant battle between the pirates and the lawyers, with the legal team balancing on the end of the download bar, with space running out. It was scripted by Duncan.

Oh no! We've lost the internet

2008-04-30T01:47:00.000-07:00

We lost our internet connection for a bit on Friday, and this was (perhaps) the scene at Prompt Towers:

Piggybacking on a wireless connection

2008-04-16T01:56:00.000-07:00

Here's another cartoon from the archives. I think Fiona wrote this one, and Charlotte illustrated it perfectly.

Google: Don't be weevil

2008-04-15T09:10:00.000-07:00

This cartoon is from a 2006 issue of our newsletter, when Google was being heavily criticised for working with the Chinese government to filter search results. With much unrest surrounding the Olympics in China and Google still a powerful news source, the cartoon's as topical as ever.
