Alcatel Lucent at the World Economic Forum
For the 2011 World Economic Forum summit in Davos, tech leader Alcatel Lucent required a solution to announce their presence, and communicate moment to moment updates. The site, leveraging the Joomla! content management system (CMS), was designed as a dashboard to push out RSS, YouTube, tweets, flickr and news releases. Someone's solution delivered content automatically, in near real-time, allowing participants to focus on the work at hand while the site delivered the message. Read more...

A studio, not a Museum
Fall 2010, has provided big changes for Someone.
Someone is opening a studio where we can share our letterpress printing operation: presses and type; original gifts, cards, and wrap; vintage literary press ephemera to excite discerning publishing enthusiasts. We've also opened our doors to two fabulous new presses. Someone, at 1691 Dundas Street West in Toronto, is not a museum, even if the presses we run are 100 years old! Find out more about the new store here.
Gifted a Challenge Gordon
Bigger than a puppy, and likely more than a century old - Someone was given the gift of two 'new' presses. While we're busy with web and print design work, opening the store and general seasonal bliss – we're also in the midst of a restoration project, getting the two presses up and running. Take a look at the story and photos here.
Sending Thanks
During the Fall 2010, Someone moved 20000 pounds of type and presses from the downtown east side of Toronto and two additional presses from a dank basement in Caledon Ontario, to assemble their fine printing, web and design studio, opening this season on Dundas Street West.
The Herculean adventure was supported by a creative and courageous crew. 'Thank you!' – uttered a thousand times, inspired these cards. We'll use them, and have made more to share – available online here.
