Startup Weekend Space, Bremen 2015

At the moment in Bremen in the BITZ (Technologie und Gründerzentren in Bremen) there is taking place the Startup Weekend Space, Bremen 2015. I am fascinated by this and space, readers of my blog know this. I mean hey, I already went to the ESA App Challenge and won the 1st prize together with my great teammates Stanislav, Hannah and Ognen.

Why do I blog this? It is one of the first Startup Weekends I get to know about in Bremen. Since I work at BITZ while building my own company I recognized these guys setting up the event. I wonder why I did not get to know about this event before even though Wirtschaftsförderung Bremen is one of the facilitators I never got a message from them about this event taking place even in the same building. So I just got the luck to meet @izanperis, thx guy for inviting me to the Final Presentations.

Why do I blog this? Ich hab mir diese App geladen weil sie wirklich hübsch gemacht ist und das tolle ist damit kann man durch die Zeit reisen. Man dreht rechts an diesem Zeitstrahl/-rad und verändert damit oben wahlweise die Minuten, Tage, Jahre etc. und das macht Spaß! Und es ist sicher informativer als das was man so in unserer Medienlandschaft als Panikmache von wegen „Wir werden alle sterben!1!!11!!!“ lesen muss wegen Stromausfall und so weiter. Man kann sich auch mal drüber freuen, das wir in einem Universum leben, in dem wir echt nur ein ganz kleiner, unbedeutender Teil sind.

Apple’s 3rd Party Software Ecosystem Meltdown

I just want to give my posting from June 12th, 2013 a revisit. My core prophecy about the changes iOS 7 brought was the following:

It’s a headshot to innovation and the ecosystem and it basically screws a lot of business models.

We now have Oct 24th, 2014 that is one year and a quarter later. And now we see the results coming in:

Why do I blog this? Because Apple gave „indie“ developers not just a headshot, they still keep shooting them down until they stop trying to get up back on their feet.
