It's election time here in Denmark, so regretfully I don't have as much time to blog as I would have liked to have. Anyhow, here are two awesome things that I came across today and want to share with you:

And I owe it all to the new beta (release candidate 3) of the social browser Flock.
I've been testing the beta for some time now, but it wasn't until now that I discovered the actual power of the People sidebar. Whenever people update their profile on Facebook, the sidebar updates itself. I can also choose [...]

This is good fun. Take a look at what Google might have looked like in the year 1407.
My favorite has to be the the "Google Earth Flat" link :-)
So, when will we see a 1407'izer, that can take ordinary web pages and 1407'ify them?

After running alpha builds of the 1.1 I just got my invitation to the private beta of the upcoming 1.0 version of the social web browser Flock.
Duncan Riley at TechCrunch feels the same way about Flock 1.0 as I do: Flock 1.0 Beta Released: Surprisingly Very Good
I'm not going to go further into the functionality [...]

Today when I logged into Gmail, I noticed that I had some more space available than usually:
You are currently using 639 MB (21%) of your 3044 MB.
A quick look at the official Gmail blog and yes:
That said, a few of you are using Gmail so much that you're running out of space, so to make [...]

I'm trying to add the feed from onlineminds.dk (which I co-run with Kim Elmose) to my Jaiku account, but I get a "Page not found" error:
Whoa! Who turned up the heat? Servers are running a bit hot right now, please try again in a couple minutes.
Could this be because of the Jaiku hype after [...]

Google itself has now officially announced that it has bought Jaiku.
Interesting thing though.. when you look at the blog entry in the blog and in the feed, you'll see a difference:
From the blog:

From the feed:
[...] We plan [...]
