Missing

Just Use it!

We've worked with Headshift to redevelop a website devoted to opening up our work to more conversation and discussion. 


New  ways to get Demos updates include:

  • get RSS feeds of press releases, events, publications and blog posts
  • get podcasts

Anyone who signs up to the site is able to:

  • comment on blog posts
  • comment on publications
  • sign up to hear about particular projects
  • get regular email updates about our events and projects
  • add themes to pages so that they are easier for you to find
Since we launched our website almost a year ago, attention paid to social networking and social software has increased dramatically. That means Demos employees, too, are increasingly using a number of existing tools out there for fun and work.
Check out our MySpace profile, our Flickr photos (also seen on most project pages) our del.icio.us tags, our very own wiki (including the 'hive' of former interns) and with a bit of searching around your favourite social networking sites, you never know where else we might be....
