This blog celebrates its third birthday today. Three years ago I started this as an experiment at blogger.com, because I wanted to test this phenomenon called blogs, which was already mentioned a lot back in 2004.
I still enjoy this a lot, even though daily work and two other blog projects have taken a considerable chunk [...]

The German DLD Conference (Digital, Life, Design) just started a few hours ago. The next 3 Days should be rather interesting, even for anybody not attending, because they are putting videos all sessions online. In addition, there is a blog with live blogging from the sessions.

I will let you know more of the details later. But for [...]

There is a wide range of different streams, that sometimes intersect at certain touchpoints (like I have my flickr images and my [...]

Watch this and think about the stats. We are living indeed in an exponential age. It’s fascinating to think about it, once you see all these figures (that you will probably all have seen before on their own somewhere else) sink in.
