It´s really astonishing how well chinese authorities are controlling their „internet“ (if you could really use this term). They just have arrested hundreds of chinese porn-site-operators because of their business.

The project my company gojou.com has worked on the last months, was for the photographer S. Jagenburg from Berlin. His project „you.andme“ is one of a very special kind, and plays with the relationship of cars and their owners. The challenge was to combine total usabillity for the users and — the admin. That is why we created a fully dynamical-generated flash site. The admin is able to use a small CMS to manage his pictures and sets, to manage his navigation, to manage all kind of contents (and even use different text-styles, adding colour to them, etc.). Further on a special focus laid on the design: the requirement was to underline the expression of the pictures, and create a comfortable atmosphere. Turn on your speakers, relax, and get a part of the story of you.andme.net

China and its internet – it still is kind of black-hole. So it is interesting to follow the blog of the „China Herald“ which gives you a view behind the scenes of censorship. In this context this article describes the role of Google in this difficult market: is it good or evil to cooperate with the chinese government? Do they? Don´t they?

What are your experiences? In my opinion a classical letter still has a special experience for the recipient: He can feel the paper it is printed on, can see various typos, etc. Because of all the different email-and text-encoding systems you have to use a very simple textstyle in your emails. At the moment I have to do a lot of acquisition for my company, and I´m sending many emails to the different companies. I wonder if I would send a well designed letter to them, I would be more efficient. What do you think…

spiegel.de has a very cool new serie: why are companies called what they are called? Did you know that ADIDAS comes fro m its founder Adi Dassler? (Sorry, it´s in german only)

currentofferings.com are purchasing adwords from Google. You can see a screeny of their statistics there…Not so much, isn´t it?

As reuters.com reports, Google wants the SEC to allow the Initial Public Offering on wednesday at 4 p.m. EDT.

Oli and me doing the most important thing in the world 😉

Check this out.This is real cool flash-stuff…;-)

Folks, being back from Portugal (yes, you´ll get all the pictures) I`m wondering how I could have lived without any media for the whole time. And knwo what: it was fine. So, I´m happy to see that all our friends from Google are doing fine, too. It´ll be an exciting week for them – let´s see, how the pricing of the first shares will be.
