Is Twitter Killing Hollywood Movies? I Say No
Over the summer we’ve seen a bunch of presumed blockbusters falter after their opening weekends. Brüno was no success (if you’ve seen Borat, you’ve seen Brüno), Duplicity with Julia Roberts cost $60 million to make, but made only $40 million in the US. Land of the Lost, Will Ferrell’s $100 million adventure-comedy, made $49 million [...]

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
The twittermania continues. “Every time a bell rings, a new twitter service gets it’s wings” - You may use this quote freely. It’s almost impossible to keep track of all the new twitter services that are constantly launched. I’ve created a list of the most recent services. The list goes from Tweetmarks and spamplets to Hiimok and [...]

Wednesday, June 18, 2008
I’ve had this post in my head for quite some time. I’m not sure if it will work, but I have to get it out of my head. I tried stabbing my brain with Q-tips, but it doesn’t help anymore. Statement: Blogging is just like a massively multi player online game, it could be World of [...]

Friday, June 6, 2008
It’s no surprise that twitter can be a bit unstable from time to time. Twitter is probably the only service I know that’s almost more down than it’s up, and still have a loyal fan base and increase it’s number of users. But what are the alternatives? There are a lot of similar micro-blogging services out there, [...]

This is only my second video, so please be gentle. Using summize.com I’ve gathered some of the tweets from desperate, disappointed or even angry twitterers after twitter.com’s nasty downtime last Wednesday. Which program and on which hardware I made the video is not important, at least not now, but it’s a part of my quest for the [...]

Wednesday, May 7, 2008
It’s time for another batch of very useful links: Twitter.com is down a lot and the latest statistics from Pingdom confirms this. From January to April twitter has been down 37 hours and 16 minutes. That’s 18.5 minutes a day. Mahalo VLOG Idol continues and The Beta News favourite, Lisa Brewster is still going strong. All I [...]

I was pleasantly surprised to see The Beta News mentioned on MoMB, Museum of Modern Betas a few days ago. I’ve always been a big fan of MoMB and the work Saurier Duval puts into it. If you are into twitter, you should check out MoMB’s top 100 popular twitter sites. Remember you can follow me [...]

Friday, March 14, 2008
Last week’s interview with the sword swinging and keyboard wearing Lisa Bettany was a huge success. Especially because of Lisa’s use of twitter, flickr and Pownce. This week it’s Editor-in-Chief of Mashable, MindSay co-founder and ReadBurner owner Adam Ostrow’s turn to show us his desktop. Many of you probably know Adam from Mashable and MindSay (one [...]

Thursday, February 7, 2008
In the next two weeks I’ll host the biggest contest ever on The Beta News. Actually it’s the first contest ever here, but who’s counting?!
