Dunno if it really good or just emotionally spot on…(Via Kenneth Madsen on Facebook)

Linus will be 5 years old tomorrow. I cant believe it – the years.

I went to the theater in Copenhagen yesterday (and normally Im no culturally on on) – but wow – that was sensationel. WOW.

I love recession! And all turbulence in the financial markets is great fun to look at for at man with NO PUBLIC STOCK. I see people on TV with stress spots in they faces and the pain from wearing tie seems to be reverse incresing with the stocks. But hey – these supersmart analysts are just hired to speak mumbo jumbo – and have no clue about whats happening behind the scenes in the real world (think Enron)… Im only afraid of my mothers sisters money – she is a hiardresser (did well – worked insanely hard with her fingers in other peoples hair for 40 years – and become a millionaire just from owning a house) – I realy hope that her local bank did not get her into the “Stocks Makes You Instant Rich – and we can lend you to speculate – and make money from the fees”…

Dear ALL BANKS

- you never helped me – and thats my big luck – since you cant call the dept that I dont have (hopefully Janus, Draper, M and others won’t). But I really wish you a happy and fresh new year. And hope that things are not too dark. In my world – all the 88 start ups – all look good (well a couple are strugling and might die – but thats suposed to be 75%). The sun is just rising in the horison – specially in Financial services, ecommerce, India, Brazil nd China.

Love to all. And remember that science is now starting to claim that Human Happiness is highest when we dont really know what we do (no wonder im a happy camper). So enjoy if you are also on that team. I am – and I cant stop.

I must admit hat I love this part of the year – specialy when it can be done in moderate dosis….

All the best to You dear valued reader!!

I have been in love with this joke – and all the irony and the spot on selfironic jokes about the ventures business.. But darn – Gary lost it this year ;( – or maybe there is just no more to say…

If u – like me – have trouble understanding the Subprime Crises – Rushkoff carves it out here

I meet this guys at Reboot 1999 – and never forgot about him. Follow his blog

I have been trying to do business in Russia or a long time – and I have not been succesfull. Im so chicken (scared) that I did not dare to go there 7years ago when the REAL BIG OPPERTUNIES.

But now – it look like we are going in…. :) – to be continued.

Maybe the political uncorrect will have a comeback ?

Once again I have had a good talk with two of the best Danish tech thinkers – Mygdal and Nyholm (weird that they are nw real grown up men – with kids :) . But it has really made me think A LOT – here is a sketch of what I might think i do…

I did not see this – until today – Apples performance is 3 times better – that is insanely beautifull.

I had to do his deeper post on this event. And first of all give the deepest of all respect to the team. Its the most welldone conference I ever attended.

Program – was really worked trough – better then any other conference iI attended this year.

Speakers – the best i could imagine (Only Mygdal an Reeboot can match it – but Reboots problem is always that I dont understand how cool the speakers are until 2-3yeras later). I Still dont really understand what I do in this crowd. I must say that I had expected a REAL SUPERSTAR - Bono, Sergey, Larry or Jobs…

Food – was fantastic (above fantastic)
(Its not Loics fault that the waiters are working according to French law and rules – and have no problem looking right trough you :)

Attendees – the crowd was THE BEST AND MOST INTERNATIONAL possible.

Loic – the energy and charm beats everyone. I still have to see the brilliant intelectual and business man – but Im very sure he is inside the Showman, Blogger, Father, Husband, Frechman without attitude (nice!), International Connector, Feinschmecker (there is a whole extra dimension to this guy – the blogosphere dont know), Politician (he did help Sarkozy – is invited to the whitehouse – and had him at last year LeWeb), Entrepanuer (history shows) and most of a überNetworker. Im so impressed.
So why dont I believe in the large conference format. Well I just think its to big and non personal – and I saw a lot of people who looked a bit lonely among the big crowd (I dare to refer to Sartre – my first and probobly last ever littertre reference). And I have to say that even I – salesman and pumped with selfconfdence – felt a little strange walking next to all these superstars I know from Blogs/Videos/Twitter/Etc – and where so so busy talking to eachother – Calacanis, Scoble…. (Guys I have even been emaiing with). Size matters ;)

(Thanx Wendel)

Basicly a good conference – for me its fantastic to hag out with like minded people… But Im a little afraid that the “large conference format” i dead.

Postcard made for LeWeb3. Im so afraid of all the people coming with all the talk that will be – and very few people will remember that talk and conferences s max. 5% of doing a business.

PS. I like this very much. Even though I did pass on it.

Danish only.

Jeg har set Philip hver dag i de 4 år jeg boede i Nansensgade – men har aldirg talt med ham, nu ved jeg hvorfor… :)

Well I do oversell some times – but its like being late due to lack of calculations and realism…. Yesterday I posted a deal on Twitter that I had SUPER MUSIC startup shares for sale – and I did get some interest – but NO ONE REALLY HAVE BALLS THEE DAYS. So its now closed for 7-8 months

And now my partners in the business did a demo – that really made my hair sit straigh backwards… Search for “Sexual Healing” (its pretty good – for my smashng bad taste) and lots of people have done a cver version…. For every cover verson you chose – make a “compilation with tracks that have the same “DNA” – AND IT FUCKING WORKS SO MUCH HAT I GOT GOOSE BUMS. Marvin Gaye verson suggests 14 cool slow sexy tracks – Kate Bush version suggests 9 more hardcore and raw – but good tracks…. WOW WOW – Nw I will get a chance to buy music with only clicking on TOP20 and Most Sold… Aso Massive Attack – gave me amasing sugestions that I had NO CLUE I LIKED….

BIG NOTE: Im musically f**ked – and still prefer Whitney Huston, Popmusic, Oasis and U2…
