Thoughts and my activities for 2008

2008 looks to be a big year in the life of Matthew Hagger.

Whilst I sense confidence is maturing in the b2c web2.0 sector, b2b has only just begun. The rigid pre-pay integration of b2b software is set to swing in favour of web2.0 apps. E-man are doing it! We are on the verge of a technological shake up where only the strongest will survive. Silly season is coming to an end and the plethora of starts ups flooding the market with dream's of building data assets, providing cataylist's to multi million pound exit's is in my opinion, all but over.

Investments will be made. But in a season of uncertaintly, certainly is most definitely needed.

I have always been of the opinion that building unrivalled applications that utilise on-line to distrupt real life situations for the better is the reason for the Internet.

This is what we are doing and 2008 has some very exciting new developments ahead.

e-Man: The agency is booming and is set to double it's turnover in 2008. We have won a number of new clients comprised established brands in finance and entertainments and venture funded start ups.

Venture Corporation: Our investments in start ups are gathering momentum and we have new releases this year. Qualichef and car4share are the ones to watch.

The application of the year to look out for is the new moveme planner that we have created the strategy and design.

Other projects to watch out for this year are new user strategy to zubka, room ft and and the NHS where we have managed to integrate a web2.0 style guide within a traditional public sector organisation.

All coming this year in the life of Matthew Hagger.

BIMA AWARDS

A great night was had by all who attended the BIMA awards.

E-Man's work was showcased in 2 catergories for an award.

Best Website
Best Business to Consumer application

Client: MOVEME.COM

Currently we are delivering the new planner application having successfully completed strategy, wirework, creative and user tier. We are in the final stages of testing, stabilising and consolidation, post integration with moveme's guys.

When the new application goes live I shall update you here, so keep coming back.

Moveme's new application encapsulates everything that is different about e-Man as an agency and I am personally very excited about releasing, what is a pioneering attempt as open interaction. Are you ready, London?

I am confident the impact will be big.

I am also sure that the rest of the market will follow suit and begin positioning their landing, sign up, profile garnering and commercialisation strategies like this.

The internet is not about good designers, coders or even ideas men. It is about execution. Visionaries realising dreams and positioning ideas better that the rest.

Best,

M@
