Check – done that!

Russel Shaw of ZDnet calls for a Skype Me or similar VOIP app. Well, Skype actually did an app they call “Skype me” – but it’s only a presence notification. What we managed to whip together is an app that actually does what the author asks for (and it’s called Reb Me ).

Rebtel launches user development of our facebook application!

Back from conference!

As Björn wrote, I’ve been away at a conference for a couple of days. It was a really intense experience to be with 120 people out in the forrest of Finland discussing leadership for 5 days.

Then from the other corner of the park we hear a group (who had a very pleasant shisha) scream “1…2…3….youtube!!”…… the user generated content revolution has taken to the parks!!
Anyway, [...]
