Very proud of this little group and all those in it. Let's talk about mental health digitalblog.coop.co.uk/2017/… #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek
I’m talking to students from multiple unis over the next few of weeks and want to give them positive examples of how to get experience in the digital design/software development industry without working for free and being exploited. Anyone have an opportunity or advice to share?
Civil servants: “We’ve got too many acronyms”
Also civli servants: “FYI sorry for the acronyms. FWIW most of them are NTK IMO. BTW do you have an ETA on SME joining the team? I need to know before EOP because I’m OOO tomorrow. LMK.”
I know it’s cool to hate on Microsoft Teams, but let’s be real for a minute, PowerPoint online is the real villain of Office 365 – at Warrington, England
I sadly leave @coopdigital today.
Instead of a traditional leaving gift they got together to raise money for @ManchesterMind.
Together they raised £378 + £94 gift aid.
That pays for 12 young people to have counselling when they need it most

I think @AndyBurnhamGM might be the King of The North, but @coopuk is a close second

Ace blog post from @WalkerUXRanger and @JmeKane about designing voice interfaces, learning natural language patterns and interactions, and fixing a problem for embalmers.
And love that our blog posts now come with illustrations by @MaisiePlatts
.@WalkerUXRanger and @JmeKane designed a voice user interface with @CoopFuneralcare colleagues. Here’s how they did it and what they learnt. digitalblog.coop.co.uk/2020/…
This is was one of the first big pieces of work that @JmeKane did at Co-op and he did an awesome job with it too! 💪
This is the first time we’ve used illustrations in a blog post at @CoopDigital. They were done by the very talented @MaisiePlatts and I love ‘em ❤️
Using Miro? Struggling to get boxes or frames to the dimensions you want? Got a tip for ya:
- On Chrome, open the dev console
- Type 'loadSdk'
- Type 'miro.board.widgets.create({type: "SHAPE", x: 100, y: 100, width: <pixel size you want>, height: <pixel size you want>})'

Happy easter 🐰 🐣
My gift to you... My girlfriend’s dad and his next level TicTok videos.
(He’d never used it before isolation and we get sent these daily)
I’ve come up with a simple metric for working out if your presentation is too long. Ask yourself:
“How many episodes of Friends is this?”
If it’s greater that the length of one episode, your presentation is too long.
(Average episode length is 22-23 minutes)
What do you reckon @fitzsimple? Does that work? 😂
Joanne (@Jo_Scho) and I have come together to give you some tips for writing surveys that will make them better for you, your team and, maybe most importantly, your users.

Thanks to @AmyMcNichol for helping form this one into something sensible
‘My first 6 months as a DesignOps Manager’ shows how you write a blog post. Dave is entirely honest, humble and owns any mistakes he made. Being open about those mistakes is a really positive step in helping others to learn.
Give this one a read. It’s brilliant.
