Got a photo that could use a little Photoshop magic? James Friedman is your guy. Just know that like a magic wish-granting genie, he’ll give you some twisted version of exactly what you asked for. It’s the kind of Photoshop trolling that is worthy of the internet hall of fame.
Over the weekend you might have seen the hashtag #NMGUnderSiege and just for a moment feared that terror was looming again in Kenya. You quickly try and switch on the TV to see if the case is being shown on your favorite station. Some of you might even have tuned in to the station under siege. Yes, that’s right. Station. But you can’t find the news anywhere on your local TV station.
Well in actuality the siege was happening at the media power house that is Nation Media Group (NMG). Don’t get me wrong, No armed gunmen or terrorists ran into the Nation Center, neither was there a suicidal maniac taking people hostage, this battle was on a front much more ethical than physical. It was a fight against copyright infringement.

EID Mubarak is here, so you better get ready! With Ramadhan coming to an end, it is time to start making all the prep work for the big day.
Eid Al-Fitr translates from Arabic as the ‘festival of breaking the fast’ and usually lasts for a number of days, involving a range of celebrations among families and friends who come together to eat and pray.
Traditionally, it is celebrated for three days and is an official holiday in all Muslim-majority countries.
Ramadan will end this year on or around Thursday July 7, depending on the sight of the moon.
Muslims will gather together at the mosque for a prayer, before spending the day with family or friends and wishing one another ‘Eid Mubarak’, or ‘Blessed Eid’.
At the office we made a little game to see who makes the best graphic to mark the end of the holy month of Ramadhan, and this is what guys came up with.
