Versatel goes Web 2.0 with http://www.versalab.de/
Customer can raise their voice, concerns and suggest ideas (e.g. new features, tariff options). I’m a litte bit surprised to see this kind of approach from Versatel. They changed their strategy recently to mainly focus on business customer. Now they introducing a tool for consumers. Nevertheless, thumbs up for Versatel.

Upcoming new product – Google Store view
Just discovered the story on Search Engine Land that Google took indoor pictures of a brick and mortar store for a new product named “Google Store Views”. That will allow Google to further enhance their Google Maps service. Not only will you be able make a virtual walk with Google street view in the future you will be able to walk into the stores. If you think further and combine this with google checkout, google product search, google voice, …you will end up with a virtual layer completely controlled by Google.
A shopping trip to Tokio is a virtual trip within Google maps. Not only can you discover Shibuya but you can enter any store – from your PC or even Mobile Phone. From there you can initiate a call just by pressing a button or following the link to the homepage of the store. The store homepage might be also hosted by Google (Google Sites, Google Checkout Gadget)…There are sooo many possibilities for Google.
I think it’s nearly a year ago i had two sessions with senior executives from yellow pages companies. We had a very interesting discussion about the latest market developments and the threat of being substituted by Over-the-top players like Google, Qype or Yelp. On one page of the slide deck i had an overview of relevant services provided by Google. While talking about Google Maps, i told them, that I’m truly convinced that the next logical step will be the extension of Google Maps with indoor views of brick and mortar stores.

Die Werbung ist ganz großes Kino. Ich habe lange schon nicht mehr so gelacht. Auch wenn ich keinen Dacia erwerben werde, die Werbung hat auf jeden Fall schon mal Klasse.

Although netbooks are small today – maybe 10% of the PC market at most – we believe over the next several years that could completely change around and that could be 90% of the PC market

LOL. Wenn ich chef von ARM wär würde ich auch so ein illusorisches Wunschdenken an den Tag legen…
“over the next several years” ist auch eine nette Formulierung -

2:1 Split Notebook vs. Desktop PCs in Deutschland laut Bitkom. Ob wir da 90/10 sehen halte ich auch für eine gewagte Prognose. Wenn man die Markt Definition für PCs weiterfasst und Tablets und Smartphones mit einschließt, dann wäre die Prognose wahrscheinlich zutreffend.

You can manage 50 people through the strength of your personality and lack of sleep. You can touch them all in a week and make sure they’re all pointed in the right direction. By 150, it’s clear that that’s not going to scale, and you’ve got to find some way to keep everybody going in productive directions when you’re not in the room.

Im Moment würden weltweit täglich eine Milliarde Videos über das Portal angeschaut; bei einem Siebtel davon – also eine Milliarde Videos pro Woche – flössen Werbegelder an YouTube und darüber an die Rechteinhaber der Videos.
