  Moving to WordPress miscellaneous | (2)

  Just a quick note to let you know that we're working on moving our old blog to the WordPress platform. This will give us a simpler interface to update our blog, and I promise that we'll be more active on posting information on Second Brain and everything related to that. We'll even throw in a few features that'll let you influence our product development road map. But first, we have this new beta release pending. Should be alive and kicking for registered users on Thursday... fingers crossed.

  Got a story on Digg marketing, miscellaneous | (0)

  I was browsing early morning yesterday and noticed a reference to iPoor  - the iPhone Killer in one of my many feeds. I thought it was quite funny decided to digg it from the link on the page. I was then taken to the submit story pattern on digg - meaning that no one had submitted it before. Pretty cool, I thought and went through the submission process. Pretty soon I had five diggs, then I went to bed. When I woke up the next morning, the story had 222 diggs and 45 comments - one of them referring to ...

  The Change Function design, ideas, miscellaneous | (2)

  I just skimmed through one of the many business books I have ordered the past weeks. I tend to order almost every book I get recommended on some of the blogs that i follow - and several of these have stacked up on my desk. But, let's get to the point. The Change Function: Why Some Technologies Take Off and Others Crash and Burn has a few simple ideas that one should get from it. It preaches the user oriented view of product development and marketing that is so popular now. He proposes that technologist have been focusing too much ...

  Top 15 According to Techcrunch miscellaneous | (0)

  Michael Arrington at Techcrunch just updated his very subjective list of "Web 2.0 Companies I Couldn’t Live Without". Compared to the 2006 list, there are a few changes - most notably perhaps the exit of del.icio.us and the entry of bluedot.us. There are a few other changes of course. My general impression is that there are a wide spectrum of web-based tools on the list. Many of which are quite traditional and used for communication, e.g. Gmail and Skype, and a few that are used for creating and consuming content, e.g. YouTube and Bluedot. I would have expected that there ...

  Stolen laptop development, miscellaneous | (0)

  When Bartlomiej, our very dedicated Flash Developer, arrived at his flat on Saturday evening, he prepared some coffee for his evening shift and sat down at his desk, only to find that the balcony door was open and the window broken. Next, he noticed there was no computer at his desk - it was stolen, somebody had broken into his apartment. About five days of normal + overtime work was lost. And this close to the release date, this is very precious time. Today, he is reporting the lost items with the police. We just have to hope he is ...

  The first Second Brain Baby miscellaneous | (0)

  Bergsvein and his wife Irene, had a baby last Friday at 23:30. The boy weighed 3984 grams and was 52 centimeters long - quite big - for being so small;). Still waiting for the pictures though. We wish him and his family all the best, and hope they enjoy the week together. But at the same time, Bergsvein is the technical architect and manager on the team, so we hope it doesn't take too long before he is back at work. We have a deadline you know, baby or not...;)

  Making Words at Making Waves miscellaneous | (0)

  Check out the guys (and myself) at Making Waves. They have just created their first blog called Making Words (only in Norwegian unfortunately).The name plays at our company name, of course, and it jused to be an e-mail newsletter that I edited for a couple of years. I'm very happy to see that we're upgrading it to a blog. As any new stuff on the web right now, it is a beta project. We'll keep the URL "secret" for a while as we start posting and adding content. The goal is to get all the people that work at Making ...
