Good Old Trend

Okay, so we changed our minds. We’re not selling Good Old. I think it was a good exercise to think about it though, as it forced us to look at our company differently. I saw a company culture forming that I didn’t want to interrupt. Sales figures that were going better than ever. Interesting people wanting to work with us. All in all it felt as if we should continue riding this train as far […]

It seems Fring needed the interface of the iPhone for it to click – at least for me. I’ve tried it quickly and it makes perfect […]

This blog post has been brewing in my head for months, and I haven’t quite been able to pin it done completely until now. I’m holding a presentation on the subject at KTH on the 9th of April and I was hoping that your input could help me improve the idea and turn it into something really good and interesting to listen to.

This isn’t exactly news hot off the RSS-reader, but here are three interesting things to look into. The Bivings Report: Not every site needs to be a social network When I hear folks talk about launching social networks I’m reminded of what people say about opening a restaurant: proceed with caution because nine out of ten fail in the first year. For nearly all organizations, the best approach is to (1) add some light social […]
