I was really looking forward to attend the 3rd LIFT Conference in Geneva but I had to cancel my trip due to overload of work and preparals for a.o. the MobileMonday Peer Awards Barcelona and Mobile Jam Session - Oui, je râle!

LIFT has a great format and has build a great reputation since it […]

Dopplr will announce their mobile site at Nokia World on Tuesday. I had a chance to preview dopplr mobile. The future location-awareness service is following its natural curse also on the mobile phone: simple, easy to use and above all useful!
On Dopplr Mobile - m.dopplr.com - I can easily add a trip, see where my […]

On November 15, I’ll attend - as a judge this time - the Under the Radar | Mobility conference, organised by Dealmaker Media in the Microsoft Conference Center Building in Mountain View, CA.

What I like most in Nokia’s strategy is its constant ability to look forward and move ahead with the changes. Nokia Flagship Store announcements already positioned Nokia with an independant retail strategy, it’s obvious that once there, there’s a different world on top of selling devices…
There has been a lot of fingertip heating since Nokia […]

While I’m most of the time always ‘connected’ with my laptop and/or my mobile phone, for this years’ summer holidays I decided to opt for a completely disconnected vacation. I felt a healthy need to get away for a couple weeks from a social media overload - and guess what? I didn’t miss my email […]

If you have a moment, I highly recommend to view this presentation Jaiku co-founder Jyri Engeström gave at Reboot 9.0 and at Mobile Monday Amsterdam recently on the future of participatory media.
Probably one of the most comprehensive views on social media titled Microblogging: Tiny social objects.

Why people like microblogging? Because most people can’t write several […]
