Mobilism last call

Permalink | in Mobilism

On 16th and 17th of May we will organise the third edition of Mobilism, the mobile web conference.

We have one speaker change: unfortunately Thomas Fuchs was not able to make it. We have found Remy Sharp willing to take over the slot and the topic: JavaScript frameworks in an increasingly mobile (and thus memory- and processor-challenged) world.

De Correspondent - future of journalism?

Permalink | in Society

One of the things I’ve been following closely these past few weeks is an initiative for a new kind of journalism here at home. To me it’s not so much about the journalism as it is about the business model, which nicely ties in with other initiatives in the US, and is probably even more succesful right now.

De Correspondent aims to become a blog and news site supported by subscriptions. See also this English article for a summary of what’s happened so far.

Linkbait moved to Mobilism

Permalink | in Linkbait

In 2011 I spent a lot of energy on my Linkbait posts, where I gathered interesting links to mobile stories and put them on my site once per week or two weeks. In 2012 I quit this feature because it cost me too much time.

Now, however, there is the new Links section of Mobilism, where Krijn, Stephen and I do essentially the same. Even better for me is the fact that Krijn does the actual publishing, and I just have to create content. Finding links and writing notes was never the problem; getting it ready for publication was.

So if you enjoyed the Linkbait posts, head over to the Mobilism site, or follow us on Twitter and receive all new links (as well as conference news).
