href="http://jacob.saxberg.dk/">Jacob Friis Saxberg</a> alias <a
href="http://twitter.com/nfsaxberg">@nfsaxberg</a> og <a
href="http://twitter.com/webjay">@webjay</a>, partnere privat og i firmaet <a
href="http://webcom.dk">Webcom</a>, der siden 1996 har arbejdet pÃ¥ spydspidsen af den digitale udvikling med web som omdrejningspunktet for deres web <a
href="http://webcom.dk/labs">startups</a> og <a
href="http://www.webcom.dk/cases">opgaver</a> for stÃ¸rre danske virksomheder.</p><p>Bogen henvender sig til Business Professionals som er bekendte medÂ sociale web tjenester som <a
href="http://linkedin.com">LinkedIn</a>, <a
href="http://facebook.com">Facebook</a> med flere. Bogens formÃ¥l er at introducere lÃ¦seren til vÃ¦rdien bag vÃ¦rktÃ¸jet Twitter, som for mange ved 1. Ã¸jekast kan virke banalt, med <a
href="http://twitter.com/tweetbogen">140 karakter</a> <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-blogging">mikroblog</a> beskeder som broadcastes ud til alle der har lyst til at lÃ¦se dem.</p><p>Den samme virkning havde Internettet, og e-mail ogsÃ¥ da det kom frem, hvordan skulle noget sÃ¥ banalt kunne have sÃ¥ stor pÃ¥virkning pÃ¥ mÃ¥den vi arbejder og kommunikerer pÃ¥. Men netop fordi rammen er sÃ¥ enkel er mulighederne uanede uanset om man er privatperson, politiker, virksomhed eller anden organisation der Ã¸nsker at kommunikere og opnÃ¥ viden fra den verden der omgiver os. Twitters verden er global, vÃ¥gen 24 timer i dÃ¸gnet med nye tweets hvert sekund, der beriger os med alverdens temaer, viden og vinkler som vi ikke tidligere har haft samme adgang til.</p><p>Bogen blev til med 140 km. i timen, pÃ¥ halvanden mÃ¥ned var rÃ¥materialet klar og processen har vÃ¦ret intenst men berigende. Jacob som bl.a. er stifter af Skandinaviens stÃ¸rste IT communityÂ <a
href="http://eksperten.dk" target="_blank">Eksperten</a>, har med sin tekniske baggrund sikret at de teknologiske muligheder er reprÃ¦senteret. Natasha har arbejdet et Ã¥rti i store organisationer nationale som internationale, med rollen som forandringsagent og leder indenfor teknik, innovation og web 2. Denne viden er med bogen blevet omsat sÃ¥ enkeltpersoner og virksomheder kan integrere Twitter med deres eksisterende processer, strategi og ikke mindst sÃ¥ de mennesker der skal arbejde med Twitter til daglig oplever den forskel 140 karakterer kan have pÃ¥ deres hverdag.</p><p>Bogen gengiver en rÃ¦kke cases pÃ¥ hvordan virksomheder i ind- og udland har formÃ¥et at anvende Twitter til blandt andet innovation, markedsfÃ¸ring, kundeservice og rekruttering. Vores hÃ¥b er at bogen er med til at skabe endnu flere cases i danske virksomheder for hvordan man ved hjÃ¦lp af Ã¥benhed, deling og deltagelse kan imÃ¸dekomme transformationen mod organisationen 2.0. Twitter er blot et simpelt vÃ¦rktÃ¸j men det reprÃ¦senterer et paradigmeskift for den mÃ¥de vi kommunikerer pÃ¥. Som ny i Twitter land byder vi dig velkommen og Ã¸nsker dig en god og givende rejse!</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2009/07/01/twitter-massekommunikation-pa-140-tegn/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Jam session startups</title><link>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2009/05/19/jam-session-startups/</link> <comments>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2009/05/19/jam-session-startups/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 19 May 2009 11:29:46 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>natasha</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Mentory]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Startups]]></category> <category><![CDATA[entrepreneur]]></category> <category><![CDATA[jamsession]]></category> <category><![CDATA[startup]]></category> <category><![CDATA[webcom]]></category> <guid

They are focused on the opportunities that arises from the chord chart (the frame that defines the rhythm and harmonic). They sense, they listen, they collaborate while creating unique unpredictable art.</span></p><p><span>Based on the same principles we create jam session startups, meaning that we set a course and we gather the perfect team of highly skilled people. We do not create an agenda or agreements, but we focus, do our best, sense and listen to our users. We collaborate on creating unique, unpredictable and user driven startups.</span></p><p><span>What happens when we skip the business plan, the agreements and the technical specifications? It is simple &#8211; weÂ <a
href="http://www.webcom.dk/labs"><span>execute</span></a>, learn and improve. Instead of a business plan, we set an overallÂ strategy i.e. our course, set upÂ milestones and deadlines, and we take these very seriously. Our deadlines makes us prioritize and fight the perfectionist part of us, that wantÂ´s to launch a perfect service, which will never happen.</span></p><p><span>I have tried both ways of running a startup, but somehow the more effort I put into planning, structure and great business plans, the less I achieve. The reason is that I miss out on spontaneity, which in many cases are the best source for innovation.</span></p><p><span>When we build <a
href="http://mentory.com/"><span>Mentory</span></a>, we knew that we should launch a basic version i.e. no Rolls Royce to start with, but instead sense the adaption while listening to our users. In the past three months since we <a

The journey is also much more exciting, we know our course but we do not know where it will take us a long the way, and in the end &#8211; it is all about Jazz.</span></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2009/05/19/jam-session-startups/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Crossroads</title><link>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2008/11/25/crossroads/</link> <comments>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2008/11/25/crossroads/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 25 Nov 2008 21:50:47 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>natasha</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[www]]></category> <category><![CDATA[startup]]></category> <category><![CDATA[webcom]]></category> <guid

Although it was difficult to pull the brake and leave a team of wonderful people, the instant feeling of relief and happiness proved it was the right decision.</div><p>Closing one door opens another. My husband <a
title="Jacob Friis Saxberg" href="http://jacob.saxberg.dk/">Jacob Friis Saxberg</a> and I have always worked with ideas for webÂ startups. We have tried to launch them while having fullÂ time jobs, but this was not the road to success I can reveal. So after returning from a 4 months trip to Thailand with our kids back in 2007, we got this crazy idea to sell everything, cut expenses and move into our summerhouse in the north of Denmark &#8211; Skagen, to focus completely on ourÂ startups. We took the first steps in January 2008 but we cancelled the plans because I joinedÂ SocialsquareÂ instead.</p><p>It did not take us long to resume our plans -Â to create simple &amp; successful webÂ startupsÂ -Â whileÂ dedicating ourselves to our two wonderful toddlers.</p><div>We have calculated the risk, if we donÂ´t succeed we will have a dept but our whole life to pay it back, knowing that we tried and we had an unforgettableÂ time with our kids. If we succeed &#8211; and we will &#8211; the sky is the limit. So what ever happens for the next 2 years it is a win-win.Â</div><p>Also I have decided to enter my second matrimonyÂ with Jacob, joining <a
title="Webcom ApS" href="http://webcom.dk/">Webcom ApS</a> as a co-owner. Jacob founded <a
title="Webcom ApS" href="http://webcom.dk/">Webcom</a> in 1996, and has made online services for a decade includingÂ <a

title="IDG Denmark" href="http://www.idg.dk/">IDGÂ Denmark</a> in 2002). With our complementary skills &#8211; we are a perfect match. The strategy is created and so are theÂ todos.</p><p>Look out for our firstborn in FebruaryÂ 2009 &#8211; it isÂ coming to a browser near you!</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://natasha.saxberg.dk/2008/11/25/crossroads/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
