Secret of making money through a business

For those of you who can read swedish:

Please observe upper left corner. I guess the guy at the swedish luftfartsverket didn’t like very much that UPS did not take very good care in getting our adress right :D.

I love UPS but the guys in Sweden seem to really let the operation down, reason we got this letter was because they invoiced us two times for the same shipment (one to the company and one on me as a private person), we refuse to pay X2 they don’t care or even bother to investigate the issue … even though its a private person involved in the matter … thx.

I’ve sort of died from laughter the last 10 min due to -> http://www.hotnessfactory.com

Pasted from about us ->

We couldn’t afford business school, so we decided to learn hands-on by starting the easiest business known to man–a t-shirt operation. As it turns out, it’s actually kind of a pain in the ass to run a business. Don’t do it.

Pasted from this product ->

	How to get rich on t-shirts:
	1) Watch TV, Movies, Internet. 2) Notice marginally funny phrase. 3) Print on t-shirt. 4) Idiots buy shirt; profit.

I love it

Bytelove has been live continously since May 8 and to this date we have gotten 40 bookmarks on the root of Bytelove from del.icio.us. Looking at the Bytelove tag cloud its very cool to see how well the tags resemble what we do :).

Of course there’s a lot of spammers also on del.icio.us but for real sites that have actual visitors tagging them the wisdom of crowds really works in a funnily good way … we hope google notices our tags and pay attention to them

Got home to Berlin yesterday evening after attending my third reboot, in my opinion one of the better conferences in EU for us WEB/onlinemarketers/developers to meet our peers … for sure the best in Scandinavia.

The other two conferences usually gave me a few ideas of what could maybe be the next big thing. I’m not sure I saw that this year (although noone can blame me for going to every presentation).

One of the better presentations was done by Jyri where he continued his thoughts about eg social objects. Many of the bigger speakers was doing sort of the same, presenting similar thoughts like the last years and struggling to give it another angle.

Still this years conference was great especially due to the people there and the special athmosphere at Reboot.

Som other comments from the event will be put up after time.

… one needs to indulge in some culture once in a while.

Ordered some stuff from Bangkok, a UPS guy knocked on our door about 48 hours later. Hooray for globalization.

Tore who previously ran Polyshop, one of two real competitors when I was working with Spreadshirt in Sweden has started a quite entertaining blog at: http://www.torefriskopp.se/ (in Swedish).

The theme of the 10th edition of reboot was set a few days ago:

reboot10 is an exploration of “free” - in every incarnation of the word. free information, free individuals, free culture, free societies, free markets, free products and services, free ideas, free culture, free knowledge, free tools, free platforms, free minds - you continue the list…

The date is 26th to the 27th of May, the price is amazingly still at EUR250 … I wonder if they will be able to be in Kedjehallen also this year.

Looking forward to my 3rd reboot.

I have a free room in the office that I don’t have a use for, its about 13sqm with your own lockable door (accessable directly from the hall/entrance). You can of course use the hall, kitchen, bathroom etc which I think is about 20-25sqm shared space. I will put it on immobilienscout24 and similar in about a week so please let me know that you’re interested before that.

The adress is cozy Legiendamm 4 next to the Café am Engelbecken in Berlin.
