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 […]


Barcamp Berlin 3 (day 1)

Live from Barcamp Berlin 3, I just set up base in the T-Systems Berlin HQ. (Thanks to T-Systems and the other sponsors.) I’ll be blogging both here and on Berlinblase, twittering (follow me on twitter), and shooting some video (which might show up here, on Berlinblase or on Blogpiloten.de).
My first impression? It all looks very […]


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 […]

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 […]


Music 2.0 Dinner in Berlin

Last Friday, I was very happy to get the chance to attend the first Berlin Music 2.0 dinner. (Thanks a lot to David of Hobnox for organizing it!) Over yummy pasta & wine a fun crowd of people discussed where online music is going (and how sad it is to see the RIAA shooting down […]


Berlin couple share their pregnancy: RealBirthTV

When I was pointed to RealBirthTV first a couple of days ago, I have to admit I didn’t know what to think. Over-sharing or a logical thing to do? RealBirthTV is Berlin-based couple Erik and Jodi, who share the journey of their pregnancy, starting a few days ago in their third month.
Today I met […]


Tomorrow: TechCrunch/CrunchGear Meetup Berlin

Tomorrow, there’s a TechCrunch & CrunchGear Meetup in Berlin. Should be good fun to see Germany’s web people congregate in this (kind of) intimate round of 250 invited guests. (Also, thanks to the sponsors.)
Looking forward to meeting old & new friends there! If you’re there, make sure to say hi. For easier coordination, there’s a […]


Berlin Web Buzz This Fall: Web2Expo & BarCampBerlin 3

This fall, Berlin will be buzzing with web stuff once more: O’Reilly’s Web2Expo will be in town, and it’ll be surrounded by a lot of smaller events. Most notably the way-more-intimate BarCamp Berlin in its third installment, aka #BCB3. Last year, this meant a week or so full of web events as the Twitterati flocked […]
