Compared to the population of the world, only a few people are able to drive a Mercedes-Benz, Audi, BMW or Lexus – yet they are built with some sort of comfort and perfection in mind.

this post does not fit into twitter, although..

…it isn’t that much longer than 140 characters.
Ok, enough with that IT humour. What’s really funny is that I just saved a link to an interesting story to my delicious account and forwarded it to a friend of mine at the other side of the globe – only to realize that he had already saved [...]

Naaaaaaarf!

My colleague has an iPhone.

Kiku’s Realm on an iPhone
Interesting fact: the iPhone will be officially available in Germany via T-Mobile (the only network in Germany that supports EDGE) from November 9th onwards. Rumour has it that it will at least cost a monthly fee of EUR 50,- which will include some free airtime and free [...]

videopinion

Some years ago, epinion communities used to be _the_ ultimate social platform on the net. I don’t know how this developed in the USA, but in Europe I think it has stalled.
