Testing and trying Poladroid for Mac. This is a very funny application. And I like the fact that it's running free and stand alone on the desktop instead of running on dashboard.
So it's possible to create awesome apps just as stand alone apps on the MAC. check it out

Launched the StartUp Forward


I just launched the Start Up Forward.

The Start Up Forward is a new initative to bring the world of Start Ups closer to their goals.
On the Startup Forward interaction is the key factor.
As a new start up you have the basic needs for infomation, attention, people, sharing and money.
This is where it all comes together.

Try it out, make a new group page for your start up and show yourself to the entrepeneurial world in front of you!
Do you like one of the startups that already have a group page or are you involved. Help the group become more up to date and interesting!

Get fans and members in your group, grow your profile in popularity and claim your success!

Are you the one looking for new ventures, new partnerships or seeking for the next billion dollar company to invest in, check the profiles and learn " lean and mean" about these companies!

Google in ten years




Have to post it, Gates and Seinfeld commercial

no statistics yet

After the few days Google Chrome seemed to be the leading news item I am curious about the figures and statistics on the new browser.
But there's no info yet to be found.
The rumours say that chrome already took 1% of the browser market space
Only rumours are there about usage and people seem to step back after trying.

My feeling says the numbers are pretty huge in the first couple of days of initial downloads. But what will stick after let's say a month or so!

I will keep searching for info and post!

Twitter app on Swoot


So we are working on a Twitter app.
Of course we are, what took us so long?

We started a couple of weeks ago,and as it appears, it's a challenge.
We are developing three different versions.
What seems to be the issue, Twitter restricted the number of sessions per user back to 30 an hour. This means, when you start your app, login, go to i.e.your followers, these are all backend sessions. Once started you have completed 6 sessions. When you decide to go to your followers, every 100 is one session. So if you have 1000 followers, going to your followers page is 10 sessions.
A bit of a problem. But we'll fix it one way or the other.
In the mean time , one of our twitter developers, Feike , is turning blue, literaly. Check out his matching twitter shirt ( colour) on the photo!



We'll keep you posted, the apps are to be expected within a week.
