I just Steve´s post about YouTube. He say´s,“ It´s like Flickr for Video“. „It´s like xxx“ – I´ve heard that so often: google tells us min. 51 times people say „It´s like Flickr.“ I guess when people take your company as comparison, you´ve done it the right way. Btw: „It´s like pizza“ = 24 „It´s…
Worked a year without holidays: now I´m finished, and my girl and I just want to escape. But all the well known travelling sites just offer the same: „all inclusive in turkey, Robinson Club in the mediterranean, ….“ That´s not what we are looking for: we are searching for the nice, small family driven hotel…
Since i´ve experienced that having your software „synced“ everywhere is *so* important, I´m watching out for platform independent productive software for our agency. For developing issues I now found Eclipse, which is, from their own website a „kind of universal tool platform – an open extensible IDE for anything and nothing in particular.“ And boy…
Recently I´ve noticed that „Homepage Exclusive“ ads are becoming more and more popular on the web.

Last year everyone was talking about google – maybe because it was the…

The german manufacturer of high-pressure tools, Karcher, seems to have a brilliant marketing. They got the job to clean up the heads on Mount Rushmore – what a prestige-job, especially when blogs are speaking about you…
Beg on me: my next investition investment (thx Boss for the correction 🙂 )will be a climate-thing for our office. Because of the heat of the last weeks first my beloved ibook´s HD died – thankfully just one day after I upgraded to iSync 2 and now have all my private-contacts on my 6630. No…
Just put up your art in the big New Yorker Museums as Bansky did!
I´ve thought a lot about it in the last year but never executed: creating an open company. Now I´ve found the businessexperiment.com and I wonder if they will be able to do it. From the „about“: The Business Experiment is a site meant to explore three concepts: wisdom of crowds, open-source business, and the distributed…
