My girlfriend Silvia just co-won (with the rest of the team of course) a prestigious “Robert” movie award here in Denmark for »Ung mand falder« in the category »best long fiction (max. 60 minutes)«

According to IMDB:
“Young Man Falling” is a movie about 17-year-old Hue who’s living on the fringe of a true perception of reality. Cars pursue him, while a world full of rules and systems asks for his attention. How can he concentrate on his preparations for his French exam when the stuffed animals in his room begin to interfere? And what about Irene who disturbs with her invitations? “Young Man Falling” is an experimental film with a captivating visual style.

I haven’t seen it … yet I’m proud of Silvia. She’s always working like a race horse and she really deserves this. Good work, Lille & Co. Congratulations.

Here’s a list including all the other lists predicting what to expect from 2008

One has already come true:
“Microsoft will become more aggresive and buy many popular companies at once (remember Ballmer’s quote). Candidates include SixApart, Technorati.”
Emre Sokullu, Feature Writer, ReadWriteWeb

Microsoft has just launched an audacious $44.6bn bid for internet rival Yahoo in a deal that would create an online advertising powerhouse to rival market leader Google. That’s rather aggressive.

I still haven’t got a clue what OpenSocial is really capable of…

Just read this by Steve O’hear who argues that OpenSocial should be renamed OpenGadget since “it’s all about standardizing the development of ‘widgets’ (sometimes called gadgets)”.

If this is so then I’m beginning to understand it and more importantly I’m actually beginning to find it rather interesting since most of the projects I’m involved with include somekind of “de-portalization strategy” (Thanks to Thomas Petersen of Hello Brand for learning me this fancy expression).

Do anyone have experience building widgets based on OpenSocial? Is this the way to do it? Example: If Wulffmorgenthaler were to build a lot of widgets should we use OpenSocial?

2007 was a rather eventful year for me.

TraceWorks launched an awesome new product called Headlight and it’s really beginning to fuel an amazing growth. We also took in $5.4 million from Nordic Venture Partners, hired 10 more super talents, and convinced top notch CEO Christian Dam to head our team of 20-something people instead of Anders and myself. All working very very hard … and thank you all for that.

Wulffmorgenthaler - the entertainment company I started with Anders Morgenthaler and Mikael Wulff - is definitely heading in the right direction as well. We doubled our online visitors to about 50.000 per day, took in a little money from Nordisk Film, and convinced Michael Ritto to become chairman. We also sold 3 times as many books and 12 times as many calendars  (brilliant product!) compared to any previous year - all thanks to our 3 man strong team of Tobias Hoff, Martin Nielsen, and Julie Lind-Holm. Thanks!

I also had some good fun helping Kim Gulstad of Nordic Capital bring www.findbilsyn.dk - just a small and simple idea - to the market.  Will be fun watching this small service expand to other countries.

TraceWorks has been selected as a nominee for the prestigious e-handelsprisen 2008, the region’s premier competition honoring online services and product innovations … Well, it is.

TraceWorks was selected based on its Marketing Software product Headlight in the category for most “innovative solutions” which the award committee defines like this (Danish):

“Innovationsprisen: Gives til en virksomhed, der på en nyskabende måde udnytter online-kanalen til at skabe værdi eller vurderes til at skabe fremtidig værdi (god forretning).”

That’s something we’re pretty proud of since introducing solid, useful and game shifting Software as a Service (SaaS) to the marketing industry is what TraceWorks is all about.

The final winners will be announced on March 27, 2008 at Radisson SAS Falconer Hotel, Falkoner Allé 9, 2000 Frederiksberg. Wish us luck!

I’m an entrepreneurial guy and live for starting-up new projects with talented people. It’s been a really busy year …

From producing many different projects and companies I’m now also the proud co-producer of a child - a beautiful daughter. May 7th is the official launch date.

Merry X-mas to all our friends from the Wulffs - all 3 of us!

“The future is here. It’s just not evenly distributed yet”

Just imagine how quickly a 3D printer will get one from idea to prototype … It would be so awesome!

Even more interesting is WHEN 3D “printers” not only print prototypes but actually produces products (first rather simple products like ceramics, plastics, and different garments and later more complex ones) then we’ll experience a true distribution revolution. Can’t wait … When will this be!?

Facebook is probably the most powerful phenomenon to hit the marketing industry since Google (and Headlight :).

It’s now possible to target your audience like never before. Fortunately I’m surrounded by very talented people who understand this platform better than I do: I’ve had 3 meetings today with curious and creative designers and developers at TraceWorks who have some really interesting ideas on how to really help marketers who want to utilize Facebook to generate some serious growth. Stay tuned for more updates.
