Searchin’ for me

9 November 2010

I was looking for how people got to this blog. It doesn’t have many links, so people get here mostly by searching for topics related to me. There are a few guys (Bogdan Gavrila, or Mihai Moruzov as he likes to call himself, among them) who search for all king of stuff. I mention on […]

The pay wall experiment

26 May 2010

Loren Feldman, a master of video blogging and social media, has recently put a pay wall on his site. I have bought a subscription, because the man is really pragmatic and knows what he is talking about. The idea behind it is great: produce content people want to pay for. You don’t have to be […]

what what?

1 May 2010

I think a lot of people got life wrong. Life is not about gathering stuff (cars, money, houses, gadgets), but rather about living a full life. What is the point of having a lot of money if you work 16 hours a day? When will you enjoy life and your money? Or how? Buying an […]

the adobe-apple war, the short version

12 April 2010

Let’s perform a thought experiment. By the end of 2010, there will be more than 100 million iPhone OS devices (iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad). You’re the webmeister at an important content site. The boss comes in and asks you why you’re not supporting the iPhone OS devices. ‘Our stuff is all Flash-based, chief, those guys […]

No buzz about Buzz

4 April 2010

TechCrunch noticed the other day that Google Buzz is kind of dead. Google botched this in a big way. Why and how? First of all, shoving it on our throats. Big mistake. People were searching like crazy for ways of removing this bitch from their mail account. What happened to the invite? It worked on […]

About online business in Romania

17 December 2009

In Romania, we are used to people shouting as hard as they can about their success. They do this, they do that, they just opened a new interactive agency, they’ve just rolled a new amazing campaign… Most of it is PR bullshit. And the people who do stuff do not brag about it too much. […]

Me so lazy

7 December 2008

I started writing again for blog20.ro (in Romanian about Romanian internet). I hope this phase remains longer than the last one. I flew to Bucharest (12 hours by train, 45 minutes by plane and only 40€ more) and attended NetCamp, a conference organized by Cristi Manafu. Bucharest is a depressing city. Gray and without smiling […]

Too much noise

23 November 2008

I have an account on LinkedIn. I find it useful into tracking my old colleagues and friends. Two days ago I got one on facebook, because it said I cannot access a user profile if I didn’t have an account. I signed up and…I still couldn’t see the profile, because I need to be friends […]
