Ready up for your objective, secret agents. Nintendo 64’s GoldenEye 007 is coming soon to Nintendo Switch for #NintendoSwitchOnline + Expansion Pack members, now with online play!

A lot of interesting #customerexperience and #loyalty plays being made by #EV brands. Great example here by @NIOGlobal on building #community from their customersin China (via @retailinasia) retailinasia.com/featured/what-…

It's here–the deepest, sharpest infrared view of the universe to date: Webb's First Deep Field. Previewed by @POTUS on July 11, it shows galaxies once invisible to us. The full set of @NASAWebb's first full-color images & data will be revealed July 12: nasa.gov/webbfirstimages

After 5 years with @CircleSquareCSQ in Hong Kong, I'm hugely excited about what our next chapter will hold. Together we will create great things in #APAC and beyond! 🙌🏼 ✈️ #retail #travel #luxury #design #creativity linkedin.com/posts/circlesq…

Loving the design of the new ID Buzz by @VW but would have loved to see them launch with a proper camping version fitted out in modern hippie style. Potential for a collab special edition? @patagonia? design-milk.com/volkswagen-id-… via @designmilk

Interesting to understand the differences from China customers and rest of the world with the latest @Swatch x @omegawatches #MoonWatch collab via @JingDaily jingdaily.com/swatch-omega-c… #luxury #watches

@mwurst @ljin18 What’s the best example of this?

@ljin18 Or imagine a world where brands can sell their own NFTs and connect a branded secondary marketplace within its ecosystem. Oh wait, this is already available…

What does the future hold for NFT marketplaces? Today, we are in the “eBay era,” with the largest NFT marketplaces aggregating everything into grids of products, focused on transactions. But in the future, the best NFT marketplaces may not even look like marketplaces at all. 🧵

@liam7griffiths @hkfp Once tourism returns they will earn the cost back within 12 months, whilst having been able to renovate during downtime and provide employment during the pandemic. But sure… ‘waste of money’

@hkfp No good without Tourists. Looks like a waste of money

The Peak Tram's services have been halted since mid-2021 for a HK$684 million facelift. The 6th generation tram features increased capacity, improved accessibility and larger panoramic windows to admire the view. Photo: The Peak Tram/Facebook.

@ideasondesign @vanschneider Yes! Mine was exactly the same. Whole front edge was covered in scotch tape by the end!!

@vanschneider Still have mine. They are beautiful but unfortunately have some design faults. Mine has the same problem but on both sides 😅

@scottygb When people are sat ‘relaxing’ in their own home watching TV with their shoes on… no body would do this in real life!

What is your (incredibly petty) TV frustrations? Mine is when a main character texts a close mate but you see on their phone they have no previous chats.

@uxwendy Thank you @uxwendy 🙏🏼!!

Tips for leaders to be mindful of your power: Don't schedule 1:1s or Slack "do you have a minute to chat?" without an agenda for context. You are in a position of power and your direct reports get nervous about these situations without context.

Two 1:1s with mentees this week and both shared personal stories of actions from their design leaders that left them feeling unsafe at work. 1. Leaders: once you break that psychological safety, it is near impossible to earn back. 2. I know who you are 😡

I still feel like @Spotify needs a #SuperLove button... Anyone else agree? #music #streaming #ux #suggestions

@BilndArt Yes 🙌🏼 this is nice 👌🏼

@penrose1986 Matt - Maybe you should start a Penrose Annual of great work?

What “movements” shaped graphic design? Swiss International, Bauhaus, punk, psychedelia, Constructivism, De Stijl, and Pop Art? Sure. But most people wouldn’t include New Wave (late ’70s–80s) which synthesizes all of those styles. From AIGA Eye on Design: bit.ly/31ApIot

@IAmRobRyan @michaelmiraflor This is so true, a personal vehicle has to fulfil so many roles now

We will just have to accept that the new definition of “car” in the EV age is more of a crossover form factor by default.
