Andy: Facebook Hires Infographic Gurus Nicholas Felton And Ryan Case

In the last week, I feel as though I have had ten different conversations about the importance of creative when designing a product, campaign or brand strategy. Regardless of the product you’re peddling, if it doesn’t look good, it won’t go far. My thoughts about having appropriate and attractive creative were only validated when I read that Nicholas Felton and Ryan Case, most well known for the development of Daytum which is an iPhone App that allows you to turn your everyday life into a series of infographics, were joining the Facebook creative team along with Ji Lee and Mark Darcy.

Does this mean that Facebook is finally beefing up their creative standards to make the user interface more appealing, attractive and, dare I say, easy to use? It’s apparent that Facebook has been taking steps in the last year to change their interface, design and services to better serve those using Facebook for the growth of brands, companies and organizations. We’ve all seen the changes, which occur seemingly every week, and I’m not sure the constant change is a solid solution. Finally, it seems that Facebook agrees.

On Friday, April 28 Kate Middleton will marry Prince William at West Minster Abbey. The Abbey will be limiting internet access keeping attendees from tweeting the ceremony.

I’m excited to see what kind of creative changes are made with the addition of Felton and Case. I’m hoping for more visual components in the advertising reports.
