Here Comes The Social Internet Bank!

January 31, 2010

Money is important to us. Control over our life situation is too. But then, how can we possibly accept Internet banks as they are today. How can we possibly think that it’s okay to, say, not be able to get a visual overview analysis of our expenses and incomes? How can we possibly put up [...]

Dagens Industri on Honesty

November 4, 2009

We got a great article in Dagens Industri this morning by the way. Don’t quite understand the headline (Facebook is really only ONE interface to the world of many), but well written in every way. From what I can tell, the article can’t be found online, so pick up a copy of Dagens Industri if [...]

“The School Web is Not Primarily a Matter of Communication…”

September 3, 2009

Thanks to all for your interest in yesterday’s post about Forsman & Bodenfors, Svenska Kyrkan, and Google. It led to many interesting conversations both in the comments of the post, on Twitter in my email inbox, on Facebook, and over the phone. Wasn’t quite prepared for that kind of response. So, thanks! Today I want [...]

Forsman & Bodenfors and Svenska Kyrkan Don’t Know Google

September 1, 2009

If they only knew what a great idea they really had! Forsman & Bodenfors just came up with a new site for Svenska Kyrkan (The Church of Sweden) where you can submit your prayer to the site. The prayer is then keyworded on the site so that you can find other prayers on the same [...]

Top SEO-Presentation From Simon Sundén

August 31, 2009

Simon Sundén’s presentation on SEO was one of the best presentations of the entire SSWC-conference. Despite the fact that there was no projector for him to show his prepared presentation on, he still managed to present this fairly technical topic really well. Now his presentation is translated to English and presented on Slideshare. Oh, how [...]

Social Web Camp vs. Bring Dialogue Conference ’09. Waking Up to a Different Reality.

August 24, 2009

Contrasts are what make life interesting. Yesterday I woke up here: …from the sound of sheep walking around outside my tent. Today I woke up and threw myself into a cab to Arlanda to fly off to Oslo and Strömstad for the Bring Dialogue Conference ’09. When I got here I realized I’d be staying [...]

The Very Best of Social Web Camp. And a Bus Crash.

August 23, 2009

The mini bus died. All of a sudden we feel the stench of burnt clutch, and minutes later everything just stopped. But more on that later. First a brief report on the highlight of the year so far for me – The Sweden Social Web Camp! Anyone who has ever read Ayn Rand’s epic novel [...]

Friends, vanity and Nova Barakel

August 13, 2009

There is a funny discussion going on about how people were fooled by the fictional Nova Barakel, who was really a marketing product for a new novel. Some people insist that you should only have “real friends” on FB, and not let people like this in, most seem to agree that this is really bad [...]

Google Voice, The Facephone, and Open Permissions Revisited

July 28, 2009

You may remember me writing about the Facephone a while back, and also about what I called open permissions. Well – the world just got a step closer to that scenario. But it’s not coming from Facebook, It’s coming from Google. In addition the groundbreaking technology of Google Wave, Google’s new service Google Voice is [...]

Ohoy Sailors!

July 2, 2009

All work and no play makes Walter a dull boy. And we don’t want that. I’m currently reloading the batteries out on a boat in the Stockholm archipelago, which is why you don’t get a lot of updates right now. But I am reading up on some interesting stuff and will be back soon with [...]

Trad-ad Agencies, Cannes, and the Crumbling Status of Contests

June 16, 2009

This picture is from last years Cannes Lions advertising festival. It was fun. Everybody was there. But what happened to Cannes this year? Basically nobody I know is going there. Personally, when I have gotten the question about my attendance my answer has been “…nope. Saving my money for modern events and conferences on social [...]

Facebook Releases The Facephone!

May 28, 2009

Okay, not really. But if they would? Think about this for a sec. Imagine an iPhoneish creation with Facebook pre-installed as the OS of the phone. You would have all phone numbers up to date all the time because everyone would be responsible for their own contact information. You would have the chat funktionality, the [...]

The other day I accepted the invitation to speak at SEMPL 12 in Slovenia in November 2009. A very exciting opportunity to be sure! 500-600 people are expected to attend, and the setting in Portorož on the Adriatic coast puts most other conferences to shame. I will let you know more about this talk as [...]

Google’s New Move to Kill Facebook

April 22, 2009

Like Picasso, I paint in periods. While he had his periods like blue and pink, I have periods like the recent one on copyright policy, certain internet technologies, and psychology. If you are a long time reader of this blog, you might remember my Open Social and my Friend Connect periods. These are very exciting [...]

April 7, 2009

Finally it happened. Spotify released libspotify, thereby making it possible to develop third party applications to interact with the Spotify platform. I know we’ve all been talking about it since the start, and that it has been a long time ambition, but we were never quite sure if they would make the move or when. [...]
