Half the staff here at Carrot are quite “into” Twitter. The other half, not so much. @mikegermano made a tweet about the addictive nature of Twitter that caused an interesting discussion and the start to a big blog post comparing Twitter to cigarettes. While we work on the article we just wanted to have a visual of some Twitter brand smokes…

First Weekend In The Office

They say color breeds creativity. I’m not quite sure who “they” are, but I do know that this weekend marked the beginning of making the Carrot Creative Brooklyn Headquarters one of the most creative spaces in New York City. Saturday and Sunday were spent splashing Carrot green all around the office. We even got the girlfriends to pitch in, which we can not thank them enough for. And while this is only the first step in making this new office space our own, we are pumped to have more weekends invested in creating a new Carrot Creative home. Check out our Flickr to see the end result of the painting extravaganza.

From the new office…

As my first post to the Carrot blog, it is with great pride that I would like to confess my geekdom. I, Kyle MacDonald am a large geek. And as said geek- I love geeky new stuff, and Carrot Blog’s new iPhone + iPod Touch Bookmarklet Icon is no exception.

As of today, our blog now sports its nifty new Bookmarklet Icon when saved as a bookmark on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Don’t worry if you don’t have either of those yet, (which our icon may finally make it worth buying) I will share with you our lovely new addition. Isn’t she shiny?

Carrot BlogCarrot BlogWell since Chris doesn’t want to brag about this project I guess I will. Chris just finished Art Direction for the HUE HD web cam. We teamed up with a West Coast 3D modeling company to create the final product. We are very pleased with the results and just wanted to share it with everyone. This article is copyright © 2012

Movin' On Up

I am proud to announce that Carrot Creative will be making the much anticipated move to NYC in March 2008. After a long, arduous search, we have found our NYC home in Brooklyn, specifically the DUMBO area. Check out My Flicker for photos of this stellar space.

It seems like yesterday when we began Carrot in a small office in Connecticut. Now, only a few years later, we are rooting ourselves in the best and brightest city in the world. Our success would not be possible without the love and belief that our family, friends and clients have given us through these years. Thank you for that.

Carrot's Candidate

With the New Hampshire Primary underway, and Super Tuesday vastly approaching, it is about time that Carrot Creative rally behind one candidate. After much debate, Carrot Creative supports (drum roll please)…. BARACK OBAMA. Not only do we feel he is the best candidate and best represents the ideals that Carrot Creative holds true to, but his campaign logo got our creative juices flowing. Tell us what you think of our “Carrot for Obama” logo.

Primary, Caucus, Election, OH MY!

Well, it’s the first week of 2008 and that can mean only one thing… PRIMARY SEASON! The political debates are heating up in the office after a thrilling night of watching the Iowa Caucus results. Even though we all have differing opinions on who is the most capable to be our next President, we all agree on one thing—this election will be won be the candidate who can best engage and inspire young voters. Thus, we are thrilled, and urge all of you, to check out the Facebook/ABC debates this Saturday. And while we could not be happier that candidates, and the political arena in general, are utilizing Social Media, this is something we have seem coming for quite some time. In fact, I was feeling a bit nostalgic and found an article at MTV.com entitled Gen Y Turning To Web, Turning Off CNN, For Political News that discusses the power of Web 2.0 in politics and includes Carrot’s own Mike Germano and Mike Radparvar.

HUE Gets a Standing "O"

Even with the new year still weeks away, 2008 is already looking O-mazing for the HUE HD Webcam and Carrot Creative. The HUE HD Webcam, a Clique Communications product, has made the front page of O, The Oprah Magazine’s, O List for the January 2008 edition. HUE continunes to receive praise for its compatibility with Macs and PCs alike, its high-quality sight and sound and its flexibility, but as stated in the O List, “The real draw is that it’s as cute as a button.”

The current acclaim from O Magazine comes after HUE’s appearance in Time Magazine’s Best Inventions of 2007, a spot onGood Morning America and reviews in highly regarded blogs across the Internet. We at Carrot can only begin to express how thrilled we are with the success of HUE HD Webcam and the greater potential it has for 2008 and beyond. We consider this holiday praise from O magazine, and the other various media outlets, an early holiday gift as a confirmation of the invaluable creative design and marketing we offer our clients to actualize the full potential of their products/services. Have a great holiday season everyone.
