  • Joe and the Mongol Rally adventure

    We really believe that life should be about more than work. With a globally distributed, remote working team it is very easy to just keep on working.

  • WordCamp Manchester from two sides – part 1

    Human Made had a very enjoyable weekend attending, sponsoring and not to forget Jenny organising WordCamp Manchester on 28th and 29th June 2014. With really different experiences of the same event from within the company it’s nice to present both sides. Here is my viewpoint as an attendee with Jenny’s as an organiser to follow. As…
