Mail appetizer

If you use Apple Mail as your standard Mail-App here is a useful tool, to show you widget-like notifications on your screen when you´ve got new mail- Very nice and cool.

Faster (on) Safari

I´ve just tested camino , a new product of mozilla. And this browser is SUPERFAST!!! Even Flash movies are played much faster and with higher performance than Safari does. Just test it and tell me your opinion. Camino has replaced the safari-icon in my dock.
UPDATE: camino really is superfast - but downloading still makes some problems - but: it´s only BETA. They will do better, I`m sure. ;-) (For now SAFARI gets another chance in my dock)

Exploding internet TV

This is a very good read of Fred´s VC blog, and its all about Internet TV, or better the future of TV. Is it streaming? Is it PC-Based TV´s? It´s hot for me, because our product motionet just fits into the technology hole Fred is describing. From my point of view it definitely is streaming TV over IP, because you would be able to make new kinds of movies, interactive ones, where advertisement is a key factor right from the first idea for a new film, and you won´t have licensing problems - I mean you are (we are) able to encrypt the stream, so that it is hard to save and copy it for the normal user, which is a main problem in download-based movie concepts.

E-mail wars

It seems as if the first looser of the upcoming e-mail wars is dead: the "epost" of the german postal company "Deutsche Post" is going to shut its service down by 2005. They suggest their users a change to lycos. (via spiegel.de)

Webdesign for free...

Well, german buerocracy at it´s best: lawyers now said, that webdesign isn´t of that high value in a copyright way, that it is allowed to take a design of a website, change the logo, and use it for your company. Beside that this is a stupid idea for every company, I can´t understand the government to let such things happen: every work you do with your creativity, with your brain has to be protected in a certain way by law. At least everybody should be able to decide on his own what should happen with his work. Should it be licensed under creative-commons? Ok, why not.
