Moblog configuration problems

Dears, since I´ve just moved from movabletype to typepad I wanted to get my first Moblog running – but guess what: it didn´t work, I got funny error messages from typepads postmaster, that the emial adress, I was posting from, was unknown. So it took me nearly a day to find out, that you HAVE…

Trust in Business

Well, thanks Oliver for this nice article on fastcompany that fits so well in the current discussions around the corporate use of blogs, and the trust into companies. As I´ve experienced from my own companies, the possibility to invite your customers into your companies structures and make your (their) projects transparent, becomes more and more…

L. Fritz, Hoppers, Cologne

Due to the fact that I love good food and nice amosphere, here is the new category „Eat`n Drink“ and the first entry from the „L. Fritz in Hoppers Hotel in Cologne“. It´s a gastronomie inside the Hoppers Hotel St. Antonius, and has a very modern, but somehow „sacral“ atmosphere: the nicest place might be…

Globalization, and the responsibility of companies

Well, I´ve just found this intersting post on worthwile.com and it fits to an article I´ve read in the financial times about Siemens CEO „von Pierer“ speaking in front of the UN, about it´s role and economical possibilities in iraq (unfortunately it´s not online): The responsibility of companies in third world countries is to make…

Suceeding strategies

This article on fastcompany has some very interesting examples on how companies suceeded to broaden their customer-base, to broaden their market. One main aspect is to change your view from inside-outside (what can I do for the market?) to outside-inside (what wants the customer, how can I serve him). I think this article is quite…

It looks as if google really wants to make itself a new kind of protal. Maybe I`m late, but I hadn`t heard of f r o o g l e yet!!! It´s a service which seems to compare prices etc. Will keep my eye on it, because I see a big potential in that business…

Emerging Democracy: A question of transparency?

I had a very interesting e-mail conversation with Micah Sifry, about emerging democracy, and the power of blogs e.g. during the Dean campaign. We were quite controverse in the question how to deliver content to „the masses“ and back to the politicians, and how it would change democracy: In my opinion one has to get…

Spam in my Weblog

Well, it´s quite interesting to see, that the comment-spam in my weblog concentrates on several keywords in my entries. Some weeks ago I blogged about K*A*Z*A*A (you know why put in the stars now ;-), and just in the comments to this article all spam concentrates. So my idea of a blacklist for weblogs might…

Weblog Spam-Ban

Did you have the same problems, too? Through the last weeks I often found Spam-Comments on my weblog, and it is really damn crap! Based on this article it looks, as if Six Apart, producer of the major blogging-systems Movabletype and Typepad is going to introduce a new system, where you will get a central…
