It will be 10 years this summer since I moved in to the mighty city of London. I feel like I came to a point where it is ‘questioning’ time! Is London the right city to continue the minuscular life of mine? I decided to point out 5 top cities to live. So far I got: London, New York, Sydney, Tokyo, Berlin…

Berlin: never been (next in my trip list). New York: too aggressive. Sydney: too relaxed. Tokyo: too radioactive. London still stands at the top with its balance in being between too aggressive and too relaxed. So, let s give London one more chance, I said…

I started the WDI - Web Development Course at GA as of last week with the intention of realising couple of startup ideas I had in mind for a while and also potentially make a career change.

So, how has first week been so far? Well, definitely much more intense than I expected. I guess, going back to the discipline of attending a class 9-6pm everyday and on top of that, being expected to complete a homework based on what you have learned that day -without having a chance to digest- came as a slap on the face. But hey, this is precisely why I am taking this course: Stepping out of my comfort zone! Up for the challenge…

You learn a lot in a week, I realised. I mean a lot!!!

PS: I even know what SUDO means now! Just been to Sainsburys and spotted SUDOCREM. Can we call it “selective perception”?

The BBC live interview went really well! Here is the link you can listen to it (approx for 3mins: starting 0:40:09, ending 0:43:00).

As of this morning, we are on BBC News website! There is a nice video there, which will give you further insight into EL Sajjadah and our studio. 

Also, we just received a call from the nice people of BBC and they asked us to talk about EL Sajjadah on their NewsHour programme 20:50 BST. And we said YES :) 

This is going to be a LIVE programme and you will be able to listen to it here at World Service Radio at BBC News Radio website. 20:50 BST tonight, it is.

Following our interview with the BBC this week, EL Sajjadah has appeared on the BBC Uzbekistan website. Take a look here (if you can speak Uzbek!).

The Kickstarter Campaign video has had over 100k views in just 4 days!

As you will all appreciate, this is a big number! We cannot help but think: ‘If every single person out of that 100K people had pledged $1 each, then we would have already reached our $100,000 goal!’ :)

CMYK Shade and Tetris Mirror have been selected to go on display at the Nesta Headquarters in London.

Nesta is an independent charity which aims to help people and organisations bring great ideas to life. They do this by providing investments and grants, and by mobilising research, networks and skills.  They will be displaying 12 CMYK shades in each of their different colour combinations, and a Tetris Mirror for the next 6 months in their reception area.
