I’m so excited: after appr. 6 month of development I just saw the first live-streamed p2p video in my webbrowser in our office. Not that I would know, but it somehow feels like giving a baby to birth – and it has got a name: emundoo! More to come in the next weeks. I’m not the man of big words, but: Thanks so much to you, guys (especially Thomas, Ronny and Jens) for making this real – it’s going to be huuuuuge 😉

Baidu is eroding
I went into Baidu in mid-November 2007 (300$) and was quite happy to see them rising nearly +80$ (+30%) during December. They now have fallen to 279 $ – not quite sure why. They were on „buy“ in the first week of 2008. I’ve read something about them in one of my feeds – can’t find the article again. Was it, that China is opening the internet more and more for Goog and friends? (Nasdaq)
Another stock I’m watching for quite a time is northern rock: after their ruin in Sep 207 they fell like hell: from 1157 p to 101 p for today. this morning I read an article that the billionaire Richard Branson (Virgin Group) is getting serious in paying back 24 billi. GBp to the Bank of England. I Somehow think this is a stock with potential – NR competence was in the emerging private-finance sector. (LSE)
The not working picture twitter
No, I don’t have too much time, but sometimes hacking some stuff is more fun in the evening than watching TV. So I’ve made a crappy twitter for pictures 😉 Just Drag’nDrop Upload your pictures to a public timeline. This is not safe, it is not really working, but it shows my idea of having a foolproof and damn easy to use picturetwitter. Do you like to help me? I have many ideas:
- make a nice design
- find a name
- get the timestamp to the photos and sort it on the timeline
- get mms to work
- make it safe
- …
So if any of you out there has fun to help me, leave me a comment or drop me an email to ingmar.bornholz@gmail.com.
And for the rest – just have fun (and please don’t try those scriptkiddieshit)
My Secret Santa present ;)
Better keep your equipment running… 😉
Vista / OSX OpenVPN
Since we got the synchronous DSL in our office, we’ve set up an OpenVPN – I’m using tunnelblick on the Macbook and the OpenVPN GUI from the HS Esslingen for the Thinkpad. Simple to set up and works good.
Fanta 4 in cologne….
Mail.app and IMAP
Just a reminder for me: sent mail, drafts etc. will be safed on any IMAP server if you click on the folder and go in the menu to postbox -> use as draft,sent,…
Call a bike Bußgeld
Ich bin eigentlich begeisteter Nutzer von Call a bike – gerade nachdem mein Fahrrad vor ein paar Wochen geklaut worden ist. Finde den Service für immer frisch gewartete und funktionerende Rder auch echt günstig – nur muss ich beim Abgeben die Standorteingabe ein wenig nachlässig behandelt haben und statt der Kreuzung nur den Namen der Straße genannt haben, wo ich das Rad abgestellt habe – dass mir das gleich ein „Bußgeld“ i.H.v. 5 EUR einbringt finde ich dann doch ein bißchen happig..
I was just visiting Nokia: I’m looking for a multimedia device – can’t live with blackberry without video/foto. And what found was:
Now that’s the new N95 8GB bundled with Spiderman 3 – two main reasons for that I guess:
1) Inform the customer, that a whole Spiderman movioe fits on a mobile
2) Marvel knows, as well as the music industry, that customers won’t pay for movies any longer (nor in the future) – so they bundle it with a mobile – Nokia might pay for that – at least it’s an incentive for new download models for the customer.
