You can’t order or force Creativity

For many years I’ve labeled my self a non-creative person, but recently started to reconsidered. Of cause I’m a creative person, and have been all along. My inner voice oppressed this thought and made me denying a important part of me as a person. Every person have a creative mind, more or less and in [...]

When simple entertainment applications become business tools

Youtube, a young (an infant?) web service/application which is one of the biggest internet successes in recent years. A simple web platform that enabled for everyone to upload their own videos and share them with everyone else online. To make it as easy as possible for the user to upload videos without any pre-knowledge of [...]

An inspiriting futurist

I always enjoy these moments when something new or (for me) undiscovered appear before my eyes, which sparkles new ideas. Yesterday I found a video presentation from some conference with one of Europes most famous Futurist, Dr. Patrik Dixon. Form the first minute I was hooked! He entered the stage like a storm wind, full [...]

Moving+no internet=few posts

Now I’ve finally moved into MY new apartment! The move have been smooth and all thats left is a few smaller things from my parents home, and of cause all the contacts with insurance-, internet- and other companies.
So at the moment I have no internet at home… :O Which unfortunately mean low activity in my [...]

Grumpy friday

Well, just one of those days… been a little grumpy today. Mostly thanks to some thoughts I’ve had inside my mind. It’s probably something I think of, but it really bothers me.
How people and companies seems to think they’re so special and important! Every day when I’m on the bus or subway I like to [...]

Fanboys - a marketers dream

Fanboys (I also include Fangirls, so I don’t discriminate any one), an expression I often hear in the gaming community. You can be a fanboy in many ways, or simply put a fan of different things. Examples like consoles, franchises, brands and so forth. A great quote from Wikipedia on Fanboys:
Stereotypical fanboys are attributed [...]

Web 3.0 - the digital aggretagtion age?

In an article over at AdvertisingAge, they speculate what the next step after Web 2.0 could be. Even how unclear what Web 2.0 really is, now the speculations have begun with the next step, Web 3.0. This vaguely expression stands for many things, one AdvertisingAge points to is the aggregation of news content.
If Web 2.0 [...]

Media, a murderer?

A with many of my strange ideas, they struck when I least expect them to. The other day me and my room mate view a documentary about hiphop beefs. A though struck me, how big of a role has media played, how much have they (unintentionally or not?) helped fuel the battles?
For many people media [...]

Good video sum up of the old, present and future(?) digital age

This video was send to me a few days ago. It was completely my taste, and one can only hope other old (backward) thinking people view it, and try to learn from it. The new age is here to stay, and to be the best you have to look what’s next. I surely know, I [...]

Different person at work vs. home?

A couple weeks ago me and my boss had a discussion, or evaluation if you wish, about my work so far and what’s ahead. She pointed out something I must work to improve within myself, nothing big but rather interesting, a bit eye-opening. When she had spoke with my old employer they had given the [...]
