Web 2.0 Expo Europe (Day 1)
Web2Expo is in Berlin, starting today. I’ll be mainly blogging on Berlinblase.de. If you’re around, please do get in touch, I’m looking forward to meeting a many cool folks. For a first impression of what’s going on, check out our liveblog from Leisa Reichelt’s session on collaboration:
Who Owns Our Shit? User-Generated Content and Online Collaborations
Sorry about the very direct title. Let me explain what got us there: At Barcamp Berlin earlier today, there were plenty of great session. As Johannes Kleske pointed out recently, Sundays tend to be the more interesting Barcamp days: At that point everybody had time to catch up with each other, and the first-timers feel […]
Likemind Berlin Wrap-Up
Earlier today I had the pleasure of hosting Likemind Berlin along with Thomas Praus of my office neighbors Panorama3000. Great coffee and even better conversations - if you get a chance to go to your next local Likemind, make sure not to miss out. From my experience with the last Likeminds, the crowd is mostly […]

Vaynerchuk on Social Media ROI
Gary Vaynerchuk strikes with another awesome rant: “You Down With ROI?… Yeah You Know Me“. Are social media in trouble because of the U.S. financial crisis? Nope, it’s magazines, radio and TV who are in trouble, say Vaynerchuk. And guess who agrees: Yours truly.
Because social media have a number of clear advantages over traditional […]

I work for the Internets shirt now available in the U.S.
A little while ago, MT and I launched a little side project, a t-shirt series that says “I work for the Internets“. We’ve only sold a few, but we’ve also been asked a few times if we shipped outside Europe which had been quite expensive due to the way our German Spreadshirt shop was set […]
Berlinblase is back
With Barcamps abound and the Web2Expo just around the corner, it’s time to once more kick off a few side projects. One I’m particularly fond of is Berlinblase. (I hinted at it here.) Johannes Kleske was so kind to write up a neat brief summary, so please allow me to simply quote at length:

State of the Blogosphere 2008 (brief summary)
Technorati’s State of the Blogosphere is back, this time split up into five daily installments. (Start with the introduction.) What can I say? Some impressive numbers. Note that the data is a mix of stats gathered through Technorati and feedback gathered in a survey of some 1.100 bloggers (methodology).
First up, and hardly surprising, blogs are […]
October is web season in Berlin (come & play!)
Just as last year, this October Berlin will be home to a whole bunch of great web events. Most notably, O’Reilly’s Web 2.0 Expo will be in town, and no doubt will attract all the movers and shakers of the Web 2.0 world. Last year it was a blast. (One of the fun things: Asking […]
