From the time where socialists and communists ruled Denmark…

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

Walking around my hood Nørrebro its interesting to find and see some of the signs of the Danish dark age - when socialists and communists ruled Denmark…  let them never get close to that again!

Anyway some days ago I found this stone over a door - from back in 1934 and with the text ‘Arbejde Adler’ - translated ‘work ennobles’. Isnt that text scary close to ‘Arbeit macht frei’?

Wear your Reboot Laptop Skin like a rockstar

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

Ok ok..  it might not be like a rockstar, but Reboot saw several different ways of wearing/using the Reboot Laptop Skin

Sling-style
Reboot Laptop Skin - alternative usage

Or the tradition Skin-style?

I must admit that I liked Per’s style more - or the Pyrus style by T. Seebach….  ;-)

Sunday was Bruce Springsteen evening!

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Sunday was certainly Bruce Springsteen evening and with a 3 hours concert it wouldnt be too much to say that he owned the evening - certainly he ruled it! big time!

But before the concert it was time to get into the stadium ‘Parken’ in Copenhagen, a small talk, loosing our friends Christian and Steffan (and the beers they were getting for us - bad luck!) and for Benjamins girlfriend Mercedes to tell her stand-in what kind of food her horse would like for dinner…  not kiddin…

And then it was time for Bruce Springsteen to rock us.
It was in fact an incredible concert full of energy - even though I’m not the biggest Springsteen fan I liked it a lot. Of course I was most interested in the elder stuff, but the 4 numbers from the new record and the country crap for the end couldnt change my impression that this was a great concert and I would do it again and again….
And with the band in a ‘greatest hit’-mode (Bruce collected big signs/whishes from the crowd and they played some ‘not played live for a long time’ songs) and full on energy nothing could stop them…

The setlist was
Two Hearts
Radio Nowhere
Out In The Street
The Promised Land
Spirit In The Night
Blinded By The Light
Something In The Night
Trapped
Gypsy Biker
Working On The Highway
Hungry Heart
Because The Night
She’s The One
Livin’ In The Future
Mary’s Place
I’m On Fire
Downbound Train
For You
The Rising
Last To Die
Long Walk Home
Badlands

Extra numbers
Jungleland
Seven Nights To Rock
Born To Run
Ramrod
Bobby Jean
Dancing In The Dark
American Land

I can recommend all new bands and quite a lot of old ones to check this big setlist and the 3 hours of music - you could learn a lot here - dont come around with a small 1 hour and 45 minutes concert (tops for many) when this 58 yo still going strong rock’er still gives us 3 hours of full energy…

Free beers from the Umbraco Twins

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Reboots overall theme was FREE, so when the beers at Reboot were at the normal pretty high Danish bar prices The Umbraco Twins and Mr. Bøtter decided to get some boxes of beers at the local supermarked and transform them into Free Beers….

Extra stuff to do with the Reboot Laptop Skin

Friday, June 27th, 2008

Reboot didnt include Reboot t-shirts or bags in the package this year, but a funky knitted Laptop Skin, but with a sort of open’ess for other purposes…

The Umbraco Twins also had an idea - Niels with the traditional scarf and Per in a more cool skater hat (dont confuse with a scater hat…  a lot different I guess..  ;-)  )

(bonus info: Martin Stahl seems like doing business instead of rebooting…)

And T. Seebach showing his Pyrus version

Can we have some votes please?

Reboot 10 - first day

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

First day of reboot is over and it was a really nice day - interesting speaches (ok… I admit it…  I was only seeing one…) and great networking..

Kedelhallen was again the venue
Rebot 10 at Kedelhallen
The beach chairs were waiting for us…  and the nice weather…

Networking and computing in and in between the sessions - as always the people are very active…  but rebooting…
Reboot 10 and networking
Remember the logo’s of Polar Rose, Social Square, 23 and of course Zyb…

Also MR. Reboot Thomas Mygdal-Madsen found a bit of time for networking, even though I know he was pretty busy and had only 3 hours of sleep….

Social Square turned 3 years old.

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Social Square turned 3 years old, they got a CEO and got a bunch of new people, so everything was perfect for Thomas Mygdal-Madsen and the Social Square crew to host a small celebration/summer party - such a good idea!
I got a couple of beers and the posibility to talk with a lot of the ‘old’ guys from ‘the bizz’ - Mr. Chainbox, Mr. Bigger Picture (been quite a while..), Magnus, Mygdal-Madsen, a rather new SEO-guy on the DK market and a Pleo and…

A small welcome

Thanx Thomas, it was a pleasure!
