$150 Laptop Is Still Alive

March 3, 2008

Last summer I wrote about the Medison Celebrity laptop, a.k.a. $150 laptop. No one has received the laptop yet. So the question still is: Is the $150 laptop real or a scam?

Not according to Medison. As you read this the Swedish company is busy redesigning their website and recently released the following statement:

Medison will start delivering the Medison Celebrity laptop during 2008.
[more to come]

Yes - WAUW - In the next 8-9 months you can expect to receive your $150 laptop, but thats not all. Medison have other big plans. Read more

Show Me Your Desktop, Lisa Bettany

March 2, 2008

Last week I asked Duncan Riley to Show Me Your Desktop. Duncan started a new urge in me. I want to replace my two 19″ monitor with 22″. If you don’t want to be tempted, then please don’t read last week’s interview with Duncan Riley.

This week it’s Lisa Bettany’s turn to share her desktop with us. If you aren’t familiar with Lisa’s blog “Mostly Lisa”, you are missing something in your feed-reader. She has some hilarious videos, clever blog posts and takes great pictures. The media part is because of her involvement in the multimedia company Redpilot. However Lisa is more than just a blogger, actress, model, nocturnal and geek. She is also in the top 8 in Wired’s Sexiest Geeks 2007. So remember to vote for her. Read more

Yooba - Swedish Meatballs Or Webbased Marketing Tool?

February 28, 2008

From time to time people are kind enough to mail me and ask me to write about their startup or interview someone. I just love to get these mails. It makes me feel important and a bit like Darren Rowse and Shoemoney. Many of the mails are the copy/paste standard “Hey interesting site you have. Let me tell you about this great product we are about to launch…”-mails. Never mind that. Even those mails makes me feel important…

However communicator, Jonas Thoursie from Yooba was kind enough to mention that my site was interesting and that he found my interview series “Show Me Your Desktop“, particular interesting. Because he took the time to look at my site, I’ll take the time and space and write about Yooba. Read more

Amazon Kindle 5 Facts And 5 Lacks

February 28, 2008

I’ve previously written a guide to ebooks and audiobooks, but the guide doesn’t cover Amazon’s latest gadget, Amazon Kindle.

In this post I’ll list five facts and five things the Kindle lacks.

People have talked about ebooks for ages, but like hover cars and meals in pills, they’ve never really broken through. I’ve always had a thing for Sony’s Reader, but it’s only available in the US. Perhaps Amazon’s Kindle could be the thing I’m looking for. With access to the world’s biggest book catalog, this could be the first big step towards the ebook revolution.

Read this post and you’ll be the judge. Read more
