This Week In Blipfoto - 3 June

3rd June 2011

This week has been taken up by the Oxfam Grow project which as you can see, was a great success. At last count, we had picnic posts from 15 countries - just amazing! Oxfam sends a big thanks to everyone who took part.

They loved watching your creative picnic posts pouring in from all around the world - Argentina, Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, Iraq, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and the USA.

You really helped create some noise about the campaign and got it off to great start. A big well done. Click here to see what Oxfam said about the Blippers' efforts.

We met some of our local blipping chums at the Edinburgh Blipnic - it was fun and the rain stayed away.

In other news, have you seen the Blog feature on Craig and Stewart's Big American Adventure? If you haven't yet, it's really worth a read. It's a fascinating story about the process and outcome of their collaboration.

Other than that, we've had a heads down and get stuff done week - sound familiar? But as always, we did have a chance to pick out a bunch of Golden Crowns this week.
