Deutsche Welle’s “Bobs” Cermony in Berlin, photo by ix
paidcontent.org, Rafat Ali’s great blog and, not at all ironically, flourishing micropublishing business about the economics (well, actually more the business) of digital content. Congratulations!
I haven’t found any English blog covering the Award Ceremony taking place in Berlin right now, but if you can read German, check [...]

Someone once said that there’s nothing really new to the concept of „Web2.0“, that it is really just a marketing ploy designed to actually make those people (in German) get what it’s all about. Someone else said that it all could have been done just as well with a cgi and some Perl back in [...]

Gentle readers, for a while now, we have been working behind the scenes on a new and shiny “web 2.0 enhanced”-version of A Fistful of Euros. Tonight, the time has come to lift the curtain.

Mostly downhill, of course.
