There’s a lot of smack talked about web developers. Usually along the lines that they’re obsessive geeks who are only comfortable expressing themselves in zeroes and ones.

Here is WMW’s very own Thom Vincent to utterly disprove all that.

In what can only be described as my favourite Christmas present of the year (and it isn’t even the 25th yet), here is what he bestowed upon the agency. Ladies and gentleman, I give you dilettante, polymath and all-round renaissance man Thom – singing Lady Gaga’s Poker Face.

Scarily, it’s rather good. Enjoy.

Just a quick note to wish everyone a merry Christmas and happy New Year from the quaint, snow-dusted hamlet of WMW.

It’s been a hell of a year, wouldn’t you say? But there’s no sense dwelling on the negative. A whole new year awaits – brimming with potential, bursting with possibilities and covering your whole Outlook calendar with big, shiny dollops of promise.

And this year wasn’t a complete wash-out. To prove it, I conducted a quick straw poll of the last stalwarts in the office to uncover some of the highs of 2009 – from the sublime to the ridiculous. And here are the results:

Inauguration of the USA’s first black President.
Usain Bolt smashing his own WRs in the 100m and 200m.
England beating Australia in the Ashes.
The miracle of Hudson Bay.
The ace new Star Trek film.
Cancellation of Big Brother.
Hilarious MP expenses scandal.
Virgin Galactic selling tickets for a space ride.
David Hayes fighting this man. And winning.
RATM winning the race to Christmas No.1.
Peep Show. Again.
Builder solving Rubik’s Cube after 26 years.
A whole day at Glastonbury when it didn’t rain.

Can’t believe no one mentioned Watford FC narrowly avoiding going into administration. Some people have no sense of perspective.

Have a lovely festive break, one and all. See you on the other side.
