The most beautiful Geek in the World

M.V. blogged about this already and I want to share it: Queen Rania has her own youtube channel. Her 10 Points on why she launched the channel may just be funny to heavy internet users or those who work in the industry. What she says from 1:20min onwards could also be advertising Scoolix.

Well, the TWO best Poker Sites…

Quite a coincidence. A couple of minutes after I wrote about my friends’ new poker site, a uni-friend of mine launched his new poker site: Bluffroom. I just checked it out briefly, as I need to run off to lunch with Dominik Matyka, but of what I can say it has a very nice design, [...]

The best Poker Site in the world

Some friends of mine launched a new poker site. Don’t think that the validity of this post’s title is by any means tainted by personal affection. Of course not!
At WePokerYou players don’t actually play but can find out which tournaments are being offered on big third party sites like PartyPoker, Full Tilt, Everest, etc. Whenever [...]

Obama’s First State Visit

Which country will it be? Since his Berlin speech was a major turning point of his campaign I hope that he will visit Germany before France.

Feeling Obama: One more Song

Okey guys, one more song, just to remind us that we have witnessed history two weeks ago. Tobi Q. told me about it, whom I ran into by accident in Paris last weekend. Finance geeks like Tobi have more time on their hand these days, which allows them to dig out a Youtube jewel from [...]

Offbeat Guides-The ultimate Travel Guide

I have blogged about this months ago, when Offbeat Guides was in Alpha. This truly sounds like the ultimate travel guide, because actuality and quality of information is what really counts when it comes to buying a travel guide. I will not give up on Lonely Planet, since it has accompanied me well and opened [...]

Will.i.am on Obama

I actually do not like Hip Hop at all and you would probably find less than 100 Hip Hop songs on my 20k song iPod. However, I do like what will.i.am has done for Obama. The “Yes-we-can”-Video is still one of my favourite election videos and gives me goosebumps. On Friday Will.i.am has released its [...]
