We hooked a Monzo bank account up to Google so that we can use it to search inside our personal financial information.

We built a browser extension and taught it to listen out for 'personalised' searches. Searching for 'balance' brings a generic Google result, but searching for 'My current balance', for example, recognises this as a personal request, and displays the current balance from the Monzo account.

Google's mission statement is to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful." But there are worlds of information that Google does not - and as yet can not - organize. We're talking about our personal information. We've been bringing design to policy projects, exploring data mobility, asking what opportunities a truly data mobile world might surface? What if we could use Google to search inside our own personal world of information?

We're currently exploring many more opportunities like this for a data mobile world. We're happy to share more if you'd like to get in touch.

Design Life is a podcast about design and side projects for motivated creators. It was born after your hosts, two serial side project addicts, saw a gap in the podcast market for a conversational show about design and the issues young creatives face, that was hosted by two women.

Designer at ConvertKit and YouTuber, Charli is passionate about side projects and helping creatives improve their craft and process.

Designer at Uber, Femke is a digital tinkerer who teaches product design on YouTube and is often sharing her learnings at conferences and events.

204: Speeding up the design process

Do you always get the freedom to see your design process through from start to finish? On this episode of Design Life we talk about speeding up the design process or simply how to design fast. Keyboard shortcuts and being a software pro might help you to create a design faster but you need to look at the bigger picture to speed up the whole design process. Some projects need to get finished faster than others and there are a few things you can do to help make that happen, but if one project can be finished quickly can't they all? We chat tools, timelines and how to ensure you're still producing your best work on a tight deadline.

203: Running a design-focused Instagram

If you listened to our last episode you might have heard that Femke recently launched @femkedotdesign, an online space that focuses solely on design and separates the personal from the professional, in other words - a design-focused Instagram account! We chat about using Instagram as an educational platform, the benefits of a new, dedicated space for follower's questions and what you should consider before launching a design-focused Instagram account.

202: Charli gets a promotion!

In this episode of Design Life we discuss something really exciting - Charli's recent promotion to Creative Director at Convertkit! Taking on a new role in any company is an exciting time with lots of opportunities to learn and develop your skills but taking on a newly developed role in your current company has its own set of challenges and rewards. We talk about what a Creative Director does, leading a team and up-skilling for a new role.
