We always talk about the importance of putting your employees first […]
I read this article in yesterdays Salon.com, written by Tracy Clark-Flory. I’m posting it – it’s well worth reading!

The use of Twitter here in Norway has exploded the last couple of months. The real value of Twitter is both in acting as a central portal to bring together and point to all social media activity, and also a true engagement tool! In fact, when brands use Twitter and in Norway are we so […]

In a way I have the greatest sympathy for Hadija Tajik, a candidate for the Norwegian Labour Party (Arbeiderpartiet) as she will become the trail and error case – does social media comes in handy running for office? Together with the production company CIK who is making the campaign for here, they will do whatever […]

In the 2008 Consumer Report from Razorfish (yes, they are still out there!) shows that 40% of online consumers have made a decision based on an advertisement they saw on social media sites and that three-quarters welcome brand advertising in these spaces. So consumers are, it would appear from this research, comfortable with brands being […]

One of the most amazing handball games I have ever seen, the game between Denmark and Serbia in the World Championships in Croatia. It had everything! Denmark won 37-36 – I’m very scared what this Serbian team could do against Norway in a couple of days.
Few presidents have taken office facing higher expectations than Barack Hussein Obama. For the record millions who will fill Washington to hear his inaugural address Tuesday and the rest of the watching world, he is nothing less than America’s new prince, all the more charmed for his improbable rise and the mess he inherits. He […]
