geekdinner #3 – aftermath: a memo list

4.24.2006 | 6 Comments

if you weren’t there, you probably should read this .. or let me rephrase.. the outcome of this blogpost for non-participants will be slightly minimal

1. Morten and Michael ( aka the fantastic two) are not supposed to sit next to eachother
2. Morten is not supposed to sing songs at Joachim – especially not ” Joachim, Joachim, hvor er du?”
3. Zpitzen is not supposed to leave at 11 because of a babysitter problem
4. Thomas and I are not supposed to leave early because of lack of sleep and a sick baby.
5. Henriette Rocks ! – I didn’t get to talk that much to her in person, but I think we will make up for it at the tøseblogger dinner
6.Ekatarina is a very nice lady with a very nice style and a cool sense of humor…I personally think that her fashion and Joachims fashion sense on Izkra are going to change the world)
7. Michael has published an public excuse for me, even though I have never been pissed off at the man, I adore him !
8. Mr. Karpantschof can’t show himself at the bar for 3 secs, then say he will come back later and then send me an sms at 1.30 to ask if we are still at the bar..
9. Sille has to chat up boys at the geekdinners each time. otherwise it’s not a proper geekdinner
10. Hekla should NEVER ever change the way she says “Hugh Macleod” see the photo at the top of this post – Im the moron who has typed the sound of the last name incorrectly
11.Carsten should wear a bigger tie.
12. Piloten has to be more of a geek *snort*
13. Talfeen’s necklace was absolutely gorgeus
14. Palmskov is a real genuinely creative person who hang around in bars and gets me to smoke cigarettes ( and talks about things he would never be able too at Tøseblogger dinners)
15. and Sille’s new hair suits her very well..
16. REMEMBER a blog pimp is always a good person to have around.. thanks to Gunnar for conversation and excellent company as always
17. Vanessa is an ace girl with her feet on the ground – Im looking forward to see more of her in the danish blogosphere


customermade conference CPH in review

4.21.2006 | 0 Comments


so I slept on it. Yesterday I walked out of ITU with a good feeling in my stomach… I had learned something new, I had been enlightened.

customermade was, in short term, a conference of how to make communities around your products and your company. I think that some of the speeches could have done better under the term ” volunteer workforce”… but still, the people who are in these communities, helping these companies out for better or worse, are passionate about these products. nice.
Im more worried about the long run and if companies behind these communities are going to give enough accreditation.

the most eyeopening for me was Lars Bo Jeppesen of CBS, Teo Härén of interesting.org and of course, the skinnycorp three

I have invited the skinnycorp guys to the geekdinner tonight so they might show up .. yey ! we are going to have guest company from the US !

ohh and Trine-Maria,Jon Lund and Claus Dahl has liveblogged the event.

this shit is bananas – b-a-n-a-n-a-s

4.12.2006 | 18 Comments

sorry people, Im breaking the radiosilence from planet Henriette where I live.

I have done a huge mistake in the danish blogosphere ( without my knowing).. my 4 readers who knows me well, will probably describe me as innovative, rebellic and provocative. so I teamed up with (still only in my own opinion) tøseblogger no 1 ( a free translation to english would be chickblogger ) Trine “Sille” Thorendal

We wanted to make an event over “tøsebloggers” and an “ode to the existence as a chickmedia” because both of us think that “tøsebloggers” is going to take over the world of “cosmopolitan” and other “glitzy magazines” at some point in the future. why ? because blogging is a killer tool, and peoples life are interesting!

anyway – we putted up a wiki page for the event where our intentions was that all the people ( and I don’t say bloggers here on purpose) who thought this was an interesting subject could sign up and have this debate together with us. whether they were from the blogosphere, or In Real Life people.
and not just women – but men too. we simply putted a note saying that men should be invited by the ladies to participate ( aka. the london girl geekdinner ).. both because we wanted to see more female faces at the event – but also because it’s flattering to have guys ask you on a date..

heck we even contacted speakers !

we should probably have known that there was trouble coming our way, when the page was altered in mysterious ways 3 times last weekend ( pictures here)

BUT when we released a pressrelease with some spelling and grammatical errors ( hey we are semi professional girls doing this for the kick of it – and don’t really give a damn about pressreleases) and furthermore defined “Tøsebloggers” as people who blogged about their everyday life – a large part of the danish blogosphere exploded. why ? because ” tøs” or “chick” is obviously a negative word. and we had categorised people whom we didn’t know.

and most certainly, did not want to be called a “tøseblogger”.

on top of that we have stated ourselves as “initiative” ( in danish the word is “fremtrædende”) bloggers – because yeah ! we think that we do our bit for the danish blogosphere.. especially outwards. and we have contacted the press ( well we haven’t really yet, but YES we have made a real badly spelled and written pressrelease)

but that was a big mistake, I think there is about 20 danish blogs blogging and debating (and dividing) the danish blogosphere as we speak.. and it’s not nice things being said about us.

I have been thinking, not sleeping, crying, wondering, turning my head upside down, inside out about this issue.

and now I finally see why some companies are reluctant to take up blogging. seriously – no matter what we said or stated it was used against us – and the image that these comments and post, gives us is not very true. so blogging for a company can turn into image suicide. this is an eyeopener to me as a speaker on blogging because I have had troubles to see the disadvantages of blogging – now they are here.

but we had our support. thanks guys, you know who you are. and I got myself a really good friend ( yeah Trine that’s you) because we had to debate this amongst ourselves in our asylum.

still we are going ahead with the event. Maybe not many tøsebloggers will show up now ( they have to consider if they really want to label themselves “tøsebloggers”- but I think it’s going to be a blast.. to meet real “tøser” from the blogosphere.

I think it’s sad though, because when I chose to follow thehughpage.com’s initiative and start the CPHgeekdinner – nobody gave a fuck that I called them geeks. they showed up anyway , maybe stating to me personally that they were not geeks.. but.. I allready knew they weren’t. come on it’s a label ! – don’t take it so fuckin personal !

I am freaked out by being called a consumer !

picture this : that if mainstream media picks up on this event ( which I hope they will) when we get the time to do the real PR – I am going to make sure to state – that “NOT all people at the Tøseblogger event, are Tøsebloggers..” do you think the journalist is going to be puzzled – or print it ? does it matter? no.

come on guys. give me hell. tell me how bad my english spelling is.

webethics and hacking social software

4.08.2006 | 0 Comments

wow… take a person and a website called anonymouse.org have this person make up a fake IP and hack a part of the “in real life” wiki. Nice move to improve social software and webethics.. anyway.. we’ll live. we’ll just keep restoring the wiki. maybe do a mirror blog – with the same content. we are six girls participating now…

screendumps of the hack can be seen at my photoblog – but they are in danish

so sign up for the giant provocation of a mediagirl dinner …

if the person understood social software correct, he will know, that the more he hacks us, the more publicity we get and the more followers..

so no matter what he does, the only way to win – is to keep quiet – and in that case, we will still win.. duh

IN DANISH: pressemeddelse omkring “ode til eksistensen som tøsemedie”

4.07.2006 | 2 Comments

Vores (Sille og jeg) projekt med vores tøseblogger middag er ved at blive skudt af..

pressemeddelsen kan blive hentet her

eller på frk. thorendals blog som html

jeg vil nu godt pointere at vi meget gerne vil have mænd med , men at de skal inviteres af kvinderne ( eller omvendt) så der er lige mange kvinder og mænd ihvertilfald.

vær venlig at tagge jeres posts med ” mediagirls” – vil i ikke nok ?

vel mødt ya’ll ( ps. billedet i toppen er mine nye sko – JOW det er KO og JOW det er et lille designermærke ved navn “Prada”)
