For some time we have been dismayed at how some agencies are able to draw down thousands of pounds worth of funding and deliver websites and other projects that rarely meet the needs of their customers. Perhaps one reason why some are starting to question if the Digital Sector in the North East has a future. See this article published in the Telegraph recently.

Hello! I'm Phil Readman and I am a designer at Redup, a 5 person digital agency in Sunderland, UK. As this is my first post I thought I would introduce myself and explain a little about my design background, what I do at Redup and why I think we will be a successful agency in the future.

So this is my blog and today it’s about social networking...

Have you ever noticed the way in which business users and personal users engage friends and followers on the likes of Facebook and Twitter? Too often businesses are stuffy and corporate in their approach.  In my opinion it’s okay to allow a little bit of yourself into the world of your Facebook business page or business Twitter account.  Social networking is based hugely on personal identity, so don’t be scared for your voice to be heard when engaging potential customers.
