Blogging and Twittering – Wisdoms and Rules:

100311 It is the same as in real life: when blogging and twittering, quality is more important than quantity! #Twittering #Blogging #Wisdom

100312 What matters is not how many people follow you, but what sorts of people follow you!  #Blogging #Twittering #Wisdom

100313 Better than TV: blogging and twittering. #Twitting #Blogging #Wisdom

100314 The blogger shoots with canon balls and machine guns, the twitterer with bow and arrows. #Twittering #Blogging #Sports

100315 Bloggers are into farming and cattle-breeding, twitterers are hunters and collectors in our information world. #Twittering #Blogging #Comparisons

100316 Blogging is the seasoned wine. Twittering is the quick claret. #Twittering #Blogging #Alcohol

100317 The first letter of “telegram” is a “t”, like in “tweet”, the first letter of “briefing” is a “b” like in “blog”. What a coincidence? #Twittering #Blogging #Rule

I am always happy to find free content. Without, it would, for instance, be extremely costly to illustrate a blog!
I am well aware of the fact that many people have reservations about “free content”. Who protects the property of authors and photographers? Many things must be considered. Theft of intellectual property musts not be promoted, permitted, or tolerated.

You have to accept that life does not get any easier for professional photographers if they get additional competition from amateurs. How often have we experienced that technological or social change caused entire professions to disappear?

On Monday, at the UnternehmerTUM Forum, there were many inspiring discussions. Of course, most of them were about entrepreneurs and IT. One of the people I talked to told me that the means of communication “email” is now on the way down and will soon belong to the past.

In a way, he is correct. There are times when the email flood literally kills me – especially on my business account. And the need to delete them all the time is really annoying. Mind you, it happens regardless of the excellent SPAM filter letting (almost) nothing pass at our office.

But there are two things that I find particularly disagreeable:

„Open Worlds“ is what our IF forum of the year 2010 will be about. That is why we chose OPEN2010 as headline and tag. We plan to invite three women as speakers. All of them are quite familiar with science, business and society.

As our first guest, on Tuesday, March, 2nd, 2010, we will welcome Frau Professor Dr. Kathrin M. Möslein in the office building of InterFace AG at Unterhaching.

She will start with a presentation on:

Open Innovation – On the Way to a Take-Part Science!

Open Innovation describes innovative processes that do not end at the borderlines of enterprises or innovation departments. Instead, they include agents independent from their institutional affiliation as fathers of ideas, developers of concepts, or appliers of innovations when it comes to the realization of said innovations.

Now the “affair“ or „the event“ Margot Käßmann is already more than a week old. Yet the media keep writing about it. Yesterday, there were as many as three separate comments with the headline “Käßmann” on a single page of the „Frankfurter Allgemeinen Sonntagszeitung“. I presume that was meant as a gag.

In case you had forgotten: Frau Käßmann had the highest position in the hierarchy of the Protestant Church in Germany. She ignored a red light when driving her car and having 1.5 per mill of alcohol in her blood – and was caught red-handed. She herself was so appalled by this that she resigned from her office a few days later.

Focus: Logistics

In March, Brandeins is about solving problems and those who solve them. Naturally, we identify with this. After all, InterFace is an enterprise that wishes to solve all (IT) problems for its customers.

Since Brandeins has been sitting in my letter-box since midweek, I was able to take it with me on our bobsled event. However, during that weekend we were so busy and my blood was flooded with so much adrenalin that I only managed to read it yesterday in the train on our way to the theatre.

On the way out, the train was on schedule. We were going to see “Klein Eyolf” by Henrik Ibsen, but due to illness among the players, it had to be cancelled. Instead, they played “Watten” by Thomas Bernhard. With a Dirk Ossig as top solo performer. It was just magnificent.

On the way back, the train slowed down due to a signal malfunction (don’t we in Munich know the problem – I wonder who builds all those signals?), which gave me plenty of time for reading.

So here is the latest on Brandeins in March:

Frau Käßmann resigned.

The immediate reaction is a great lamentation:

Poor woman.

The same would not have happened if it had been a man.

She served us and our cause poorly (Alice Schwarzer).

What are the facts?

The lady has an alcohol problem she now approaches hands-on.

She made a mistake the consequences of which she accepts.

Absolutely correct.

With all our moral hypertrophy,

It is no longer possible

to call a MISTAKE a mistake.
