Getting ready to go – are you coming?
I am really looking forward to this. Tomorrow I’ll be leaving to LeWeb with Erno Hannink. Four days of Paris, I won’t have time to see the Eiffel Tower and only glance at the Notre Dame in passing, and I am over the moon about it. I am really looking forward to the LeWeb conference...

Wednesday at the Web 2.0 Expo
Yesterday we had another couple of people in the Ford S-Max. And we have decided to mix startups with something else. Other people that have a relevant story.

Streaming and reality
I have to admit to something. I have to admit to believing that mobile media was better than it is. I have to admit I believed in live streaming great quality video from anywhere. I have to admit to thinking we could pull it off by using applications that are readily available. And then reality...

Berlijn, onderweg en dan…

Hier voegden ook Erno Hannink, Mathijs van Abben, Wilbert Kramer en Marc van Maanen zich bij...
