Nike Better World – Better Made
Nike have recently released a new site: Nike Better World which communicates its efforts to be environmentally and socially considerate. Built by Weiden+Kennedy, its a good example of what is arguably the future of web design aka HTML5. A wonderfully simple execution which acts as a compelling gateway into the world of Nike. I like.

Twitter – helping to make a difference (again)
Its been interesting to watch this thread by Jordan Rapp (a US pro-triathlete) gather momentum over the past couple of days. In summary a chap in the US was the victim of a hit and run accident where he was badly hurt by a driver who knocked him of his bike then drove away. The driver was a well paid money man and the case was being mishandled as a result (money buys favours/power as we all know).
Jordan Rapp was seriously injured in similar circumstances last year so has strong feelings on the subject. As a result he started this twitter thread imploring his ‘followers’ to help raise the profile of the case and its apparent mishandling. The feed is here: http://twitter.com/#!/rappstar and grabs are below.
Good to see its making a difference with US TV news and even the UK Daily Mail picking it up in less that 48hrs. Respect for pro actively making a difference!
