I dagens Aftenposten uttaler LO-leder Roar Flåthen at klimaforliket som et samlet Storting vedtok blir for dyrt. For alle som er opptatt av miljø er det meget, meget skuffende. At en av tyngste organisasjonene i Norge velger å si nei, til tross for et samlet politisk Norge, viser at LO er i fullstendig utakt med […]

De siste dagene har debatten gått veldig høy om DLD og som tidligere Høyre mann har jeg hele tiden vært sterkt imot og fortvilet/forbannet over hvilke veivalg Høyre som parti har gjort og tatt. Eller forresten, det er feil: det er 19 personer som har tatt besluttningen på vegne at partiet, Høyres to største lokallag […]
Hvis jeg skal holde diskusjon om mat på skolen utenom dette, hvor jeg selvsagt mener at mat bør inngå i den offentlige oppgaven, så havnet jeg og vi et dilemma her forleden. Vi bor i Bærum og ved oppstart blir vi tilbudt melk til barna i første trinn. Valgene vi får er Tine Lettmelk og […]
Jeg tenker på den, tildels, hissige debatten om bruken av sosiale medier på arbeidstid. Elisabeth Aarsæther, informasjonsdirektør i Post- og teletilsynet sier i en undersøkelse som de har bestilt, at Nord Norge er de strengeste, grunnen er uklar. Min kommentar, eller hvem som sa det i møte i Hashtaggen på morgenen, er at når landets […]
Hvorfor vil mennesker delta på din blogg, din Facebook-gruppe eller ditt sosiale nettverk? Hvorfor vil jeg delta og dele mine meninger? Ettersom mange av temaene på Gulltaggen kommer å omhandle sosiale medier tenkte jeg stille spørsmålet som jeg ofte møter, ikke minst kan det være godt for å virkelig tenke over hva du skal gjøre. […]
Just read this article, it shows the influence and importance social media has today, this is from Expressen in Sweden
Dagbladet did today reach a new low! This frontpage; tells it all. They have made an excuse, but the harm is already done, The paper is still out there, and it looks like Dagbladet are doing anything to sell some more papers. There has been an outrage in Norway today and Twitter has been a […]
Today Jens Stoltenberg presented his new administration, his second administration, 10 women and 10 men. I mostly curios on two, Trond Giske becomes Minister of Trade and Industry and Kristin Halvorsen will be the Minister of Education and Research.

And the discussion is hot here in Norway when Torbjørn Jagland announced President Obama as the winner. I just wonder, what on Earth are they thinking? And the most dubious thing, you have to put in the application for the prize February 1st, which means that President Obama had been in his position for 11 […]
Just now we had the Norwegian minister of Trade, Sylvia Brustad, over for lunch! The discussions was about the conditions for small companies like us at Confetti. A nice chat for an hour and a half!
Norway’s red-green government did win the elections on Monday, winning 86 seats to the oppositions 83 seats. Venstre fell out of the parliament and KrF, together with Senterpartiet stayed somewhere around the six present of votes.

Just a thought, what is conservatism? I asked yesterday at Twitter and got several responses. But what struck me was more ideas about political parties, like Høyre and FrP than what it could be as an ideology. Could you say, today, that conservatism could stand for “you’re happy with what you got and don’t wanna’ […]
Hmm, here we go again – writing in Norwegian… Anyway, this post is very much inspired/copied from the brilliant people at Mindpark, so the wrap-up is more a translation into Norwegian.

One of the things that I really miss in the debate in the forthcoming elections is the question about nutrition in schools. There have been some try-outs all over the country, and the results is conclusive: Giving the kids something to eat during the day increases the results! Why isn’t this higher on the agenda? […]
The brilliant blogger, politician and commentator Heidi Nordby Lunde commented on my article in VG the 24th of July. Today my reply to her was posted and it looks like this: Etter mitt innlegg i VG den 19.Juli om politikere og Twitter, fikk jeg mange kommentarer, bl.a. en fra den fremstående og dyktige bloggeren/politikeren Heidi […]
It came to my attention yesterday that Arbeiderpartiet featuring Norway’s prime minister had a put an ad on Sidereel.com, a website which is on the MPAA blacklist as dubious, distributing illegal meterial. When the article was published today in VG I had some reactions from both Google and Arbeiderpartiet of course. The reason for my […]
It’s the first day at work after a long, intense and good holiday. Two weeks at Mallorca, with the Mediterranean sea and somewhere 35-40 degrees almost every day, not to bad… Since I wrote my article in VG about politicians and Twitter I have received a lot of response and I have wrote a reply […]
