Los Angeles 2011

Huntington Beach Sunset

I spent Sunday in Huntington Beach and took a ride to Los Angeles. To be honest there wasn't too much I did expect from L.A. The surprise wasn't too bad though.

Moores's Law For Socialmedia. Do What You Can Do Best

Concentrating on their core business and having the vision to ensure that facebook will offer THE infrastructure platform to enable new applications and participate in this growth is the right approach too. Too many individuals and too many companies are trying to do everything by their own. Combing available services (as Skype Video for instance) with the power of the facebook infrastructure is surely far more intelligent than competing with the world's greatest. Read more »
