Zimbra going offline

I haven’t been using online collaboration- & email-suite Zimbra until now, but todays announcement sure sounds interesting: Zimbra is about to receive a local cache-feature, which will allow users to access email even when being offline – auto-syncing included. however, the official blog-entry doesn’t go into detail on how this will be implemented. recently introduced [...]

snippets from this years web 2.0 summit

while O’Reilly’s web 2.0 summit is almost over, PodTech’s John Furrier published a bootlegged video of Eric Schmidt’s keynote given on tuesday:
An overflow crowd waits for the Eric Schmidt Web 2.0 keynote. At $3,500 per conference attendee, and a full plate of sponsors, it looks like they made some serious bank. Speaking [...]

top 10 lies of web 2.0

SF Gate’s Dan Fost reveals the top 10 lies of web 2.0, spiced up with this great propaganda-image …

5. These sites are so easy, my mother could use them. And they’re so geeky, she has no interest in even trying.

in-depth profile: YouTube

rev2.org – a site dedicated to web2.0-news – didn’t come to my attention until their recent – very extensive – company-profile of YouTube. covering the company’s history, lack-of-a business-model, legal threats and technological background (don’t get me wrong, this is really an interesting read!), the article makes me crave for more in-depth profiles on other [...]

blog: Web Worker Daily

Om Malik’s GigaOM blog-network just launched Web Worker Daily – probably not coincidentally on yesterdays Labour Day. featuring hammer&sickle-inspired graphical design, the new blog is dedicated to nowadays’ mobile information-workforce: geographically uprooted from office-space, always-connected through wifi- and mobile broadband connections, laptop-hauling, latte-sipping cyber-beduins … WWD aims to be a place for web-workers sharing [...]

MoMB – The Museum of Modern Betas

The Museum of Modern Betas is dedicated to collecting new web-apps as they get launched into beta. sure, the concept of keeping websites in perpetual state of beta may be questionable (check yesterdays rant by dead2.0 ), but for cureless web-junkies, MoMB’s RSS-feed is their daily fix needed so bad – enjoy!

how web2.0 are you?

Scott Schiller built this prove-of-concept, using javascript to sniff on visitors browser-histories. using the CSS pseudo-class visited:, any script can determine if a user has visited a particular URL before. this issue of course is many years old, but Schiller uses it in a fun way: by checking your browser-history for various web2.0′ish websites, his [...]

interview: Tim Berners-Lee

from IBM’s developerWorks-podcast comes a 25min interview with Tim Berners-Lee, originator of the world wide web and director of the w3c (a transcript is available as well). Berners-Lee talks about his hopes on the Semantic Web and RDF-based applications. he further stresses the fact that the web was originally intent to be a read/write-environment for [...]

lessons learned from Kiko’s bust

Richard White, member of the team that created Kiko, wrote an honest post on the lessons he learned from Kiko’s failure. Kiko is an early – if not the first – AJAX-calendar (way before Google Calendar and 30boxes). yesterday, TechCrunch among others broke the news that Kiko Software decided to discontinue the service and put [...]
