Interdirect is pleased to announce it has won the opportunity to develop a new mobile phone application across multiple platforms for Northampton University’s Business School.
The application is going to be an interactive promotional tool used to encourage students to enrol at the university. Its ability to run across multiple platforms will ensure the app can be downloaded by as many potential students as possible.
Northampton Business School offers a flexible approach to learning, with both part-time and full time degree courses available, to students. The School, which is part of Northampton University has 100 staff, many with high level industry experience, excellent facilities and strong links within the commercial sector, and as such has a good reputation.
Interdirect has already developed mobile phone application for the iPhone for top UK regional shopping centre, thecentre:mk and is eager to add a multi-platform application to its growing mobile portfolio.
Egypt Protests: Social Networking Sites Blocked

Egypt authorities have blocked many social networking sites – including Twitter, Facebook – in an effort to contain any news coming out of the country, as riots escalate. Meanwhile, the group Anonymous have threatened denial-of-service attacks on the Egyptian government over its censorship.
While Twitter has confirmed that its site has been blocked, other sites have been periodically blocked as Australia slept. The Next Web is claiming that YouTube, Facebook and Google are now accessible, but their connections slowed down – possibly in an effort to stop or slow-down protesters from uploading content to the West.
The pro-democracy movements in the Arab World have been using social media websites as a way to reach out during the protests – the most famous ones in Tunisia earlier in the year and in Iran over the disputed elections in 2009. This shows the effect that Social Media now has on many political issues and demonstrates the ease to communicate through the social networking sites.
The web vigilante group has started “recruiting” people to conduct these attacks. Sites targeted, according to the International Business Times, include the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Communications and Technology. It appears that the sites mentioned have been taken down.
Touch Screen Technology in 2014
This film is from tat, the Swedish company who develop the gesture powered 3D home screens' for Android, which are set to hit phones on the high street later this year.
The beauty of the film is that rather than making the future feel like a far-fetched fantasy, they show that this level of technology is in fact almost within our grasp.
It’s also interesting that the future in this film is an Android, not an Apple based one.
