Yomego are tremendous fun. They produce 3D animations of both real and fictional characters. I thought I knew they guy with the tashes and the nice suit, but it turns out they invented him.

The real Yomego characters include the England Cricket legend, Geoffrey Boycott, in his incarnation as “Desktop Boycott.” TV channel Five have been using the animated version of Geoff – the commentary comes from the real man himself, but Geoff will bounce around your PC and bowl a ball, raise and umbrella, and more.

I spoke to Andrew Sirs-Davies, business Development manager. He told me about Yomego and gave me his top tip for online marketing.

This one is timely. The Internet Advertising Bureau (iab) has just released figures showing ads rushing online on both sides of the pond. In Q1 2006, the online spend in the US was $3.9 billion representing a 38 percent increase on the same quarter last year. In the UK, the report predicts that online advertising will overtake the spend on newspapers by the end of the year.

Against this healthy background, Dan Redfearn of the iab gives me his top tip at the online marketing show.
