Clock – Award-winning Web design, on-line marketing, and one of the top-100 digital media agencies in the UK.

Clock have worked with Saracens since 2002 and as with all sites after quite a few years it was in need of a refresh.

The result is an easy-to-use, informative and engaging club site. Of course it still does all the stuff you'd expect such as exclusive video footage, stats, minute-by-minute reports, news and user comments. It also has a regularly updated blog from the club spokesman and twitter updates from players.

We hope it will still be regarded as the best site in the Premiership.

Clock, along with our new friends at BBC Worldwide, have come up with the new Recipe Planner for BBC Lifestyle. It’s an all encompassing application that helps you plan your weekly meals - choosing from thousands of BBC food recipes from which you can build up a comprehensives weekly plan.

But that’s not all... Once you have planned your week of appetising delights, our handy application will print out your plan along with all the instructions and then cleverly add all your ingredients together into a comprehensive shopping list!

It’s not been easy, the whole idea sounded simple at the start, but we quickly realised that this was fairly ambitious to say the least. But hey, we at Clock like a challenge, and in the end everyone including the guys and girls at BBC Worldwide were over the moon with the result.

The Recipe Planner goes live at the end of this month in 6 regional territories across the world so check out BBC Lifestyle and change your eating and shopping habits for ever...

It's been a mammoth project throughout 2009 featuring some of Clock's finest creative and technical bods.

What is a social gaming application we hear you say? Well, it's not a website.

The application allows The New Football Pools to embed and seamlessly integrate their gaming products into third party websites and communities enabling users to interact and place bets on football events with their friends and fellow fans.

In the blink of an eye, The New Football Pools can now reach users who otherwise might not have engaged with their brand previously. This is very much in keeping with Clock's mindset of creating internet applications that are non-url specific and engage with users across multiple platforms and environments. It also represents a world's first in the e-gaming industry.

Already, the application has attracted a massive increase in users and currently resides on The Daily Telegraph, The Daily Mail and The London Metro Fantasy Football offerings. We'll be extending this to a number of high traffic portals who are interested in adding social functionality to their communities both in the UK and internationally.

The application is very much in Phase 1. Before Spurs have played themselves out of the title race (v soon), we'll be adding loads of new features and games. We're very nearly finished on a new integrated Match Centre, which plugs you right into the heart of the action, live, as it happens, and is going to win us many new fans from around the globe. You'll see it shortly on a number of other third party websites, who's users obviously get all the benefits.

This was a massive technical undertaking for all involved. Our tech team will explain this in more detail shortly, but it's a great example of how our creative and technical teams can work together to build business critical, enterprise solutions under one roof.

So well done to everyone involved. And, of course, to our friends at the New Football Pools. It’s been an absolute honour.

We'll keep you posted with the latest appearances of the application as they happen, in some kind of match centre I imagine.

It's always difficult as a digital agency doing your own website - lots of expectation but not much time or resource (curse those pesky fee paying clients). A special mention must go to Lucy for the lovely tactile background which she painstakingly made and photographed. We love the background and you'll be seeing a lot more of it on various bits and pieces from us over the coming months.

Hope you like the site.
