The anual wired TOP 40 seem to be dominated by Steve Jobs. Apple is #3 , Pixar #9…

I´ve just clicked through my iTunes player, and found all these radio-streams suddenly thinking: Why downloading mp3? My favourite one comes in 128 kBit very good quality, has no commercials, and a nice playlist. I bet there will come more and more, managing your next party, your next barbecue, your next romantic happening with your partner in the bathtub…So why mp3, when internet goes mobile?

Mmhh, I wrote about the new Google-Blog some days ago, and went back to it today. There was an interesting post from Mr.Edwards, who explains the goals of the blog, and that Larry and Sergey might blog something from time to time, but it was not for sure….I first thought, in the context of googles IPO it was a clever strategy to use blog-communication-functionality in order to reach your customers. But when they start a blog, they should consider to allow comments, making the whole blog a working tool. It doesn´t have to be that anonymous anymore. By now it´s just a bad experiment.

As Steve Rubel reports eweek has begun to put Ads via Doubleclick into their RSS feed. At least they put an „ADV“ tag in front of the headlines. Well I think, the good times of commercial free-RSS are gone. (Thanks markeitngvox.com for the pointer)

Well, I bet all of you have the same problem: spam in your mail account. No our sysadmin has setup spamassasin on our Linux mail-server, and you know what? From about 150 spam-mails per day it have been exactly 3 for today. So, I hope we´ve got rid of that problem. Thanks, Scoob 😉

Google´s Blog. What will we read? What Sergey had for lunch? (Thanks businessblogconsulting.com for the poiter.

Maybe anyone can help me with my question: Is there a right for references? More concrete: When you have worked for a company, equally as an employe or rather as en external company, do you have the right to show this work as your reference? Even when you have done only a small part of a project, do you have the right to say, this or that company is my customer? I´m not quite sure. Please help, thanks a lot in advance…

This book was really exciting: I´ve never read a book before, which is so practical and helpful. It starts with the question if there were mature markets. And it gives the answer: There are no. Using a ot of real examples, Ram Charan and Noel Tichy explain how to segment markets, developing broader ponds and take your business to sustainable growth. The second big question is about seeing your company from the outside-in. The book gives practical hints on how to start surveys asking employes and customers of their view of your company. Though the book is not too easy to read (maybe it´s just about my missing business-english), all the examples and insider-stories make it a book worth to be read.

Here you can find earlier written articles about the book:

1) The first sides
2) The 2×2 Matrix

3) Suceeding strategies
