Sometimes, like this morning, I find myself looking restlessly towards my to-do lists and my goals and projects. There are things on them that I needed to do a couple of weeks ago. Today, I just can’t seem to get in the zone. Maybe it has something to do with my sick daughter is at […]
Im in a process where I’m thinking a lot about the things I do business-wise, both because I’m trying to grow the tiger, having a partner in the company, but also because I am personally driven by doing good in the world. The biggest compliment I personally can get is people to say “nice initiative” […]
Passion lucrating on the long tail
These days I think the internet is a true wonderland – more than it has been before. As well as we see former geeky communities has gone more mainstream, we are seeing so many people actually starting to make it into very profitable subscription based services. Two of my favorites these days are Morningcoach.com and […]
Ben Metcalfe wrote in a tweet a couple of weeks ago that “the way that twitter currently works doesn’t scale”. I think that’s my problem too. twitter doesn’t scale, not technically, and not as a mobile community either. solely on the web – it’s great – but I want the Twitter messages on my phone […]

So lately I have been Jaiku’ing away on my lovely N70, I really enjoy it a lot. yesterday I found out that I could add my Twitter RSS feed to my Jaiku account So both my contacts in both communities are covered – excellent… I don’t know which one I would choose – I think […]
37signals published the E-book ” getting real” in 2006 – it evolves around the tasks that need to be done to make a successful web application. Now, I haven’t got that much experience in making web apps ( especially since I don’t code).. but ThomasKay was continuously telling me that I had to read it […]
this spun from a conversation between me,Dannie Jost, David Galipeau and Laurent Haug, at an oldschool incredibly good portuguese restaurant in Lissabon, during the Shift conference.I think the way ahead for all of this, is not to do female or male events, but actually look at people as people. Individuals in Technology actually . Nothing […]
Ah, the difference between innovation and creativity! I will only argue my point of view from a technology perspective ( hence, it is not said that it can’t be used elsewhere)… if you look up innovation on wikipedia you will see this = “the process of making improvements by introducing something new“ if you look […]
