Unicorns, startups and why Europe economically might fall behind

Today I read a great article in capital.de by author Horst von Buttlar. I could find much truth in the statements of Joe Schoendorf and why Europe economically might fall behind other countries (“There are very few unicorns in Germany”). Read it here: Interview with Joe Schoendorf: “It’s not the end of the world” And don’t forget: “You always have to look at the big picture”.

The money, Internet Giants earn each second

An interesting visualization shows, how much money is made in the internet industry … per second! See Battle of the Internet Giants for a live view. I don’t know if this represents real numbers (well, this is a “Real-Time Accumulation of Wealth”), but the live visualization is made pretty well and is impressive! Especially the fact that Apple profits about 50% of all shown income – with companies as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, facebook, YouTube etc. – I did not know. My snapshot was made after 60 seconds. So in one minute Apple makes a profit of about $ 70K, Microsoft 41K, Google 24K, Skype about 4K, and facebook “only” about 3K while Twitter is loosing money each second. ...

On our own behalf blog.atwork.at slight redesign

We updated our blog.atworkat with a slight redesign. Since we updated from Blogengine 2.x to 3.x some months ago, we wanted to brand our blog a little bit more in our old custom style. Yeah, the changes are small. An important functionality is that we do have our categories back at the page bottom. So you can filter for each category easily again with one click. We also updated some interfaces since the blog feeds other channels, now with other WebAPIs than the built in ones. ...
