Finland Startup Ecosystem: Anything But Cold
Last week, I had the pleasure of being invited out to Finland by Finnfacts on a whirlwind tour of new and established Finnish start ups. I was also delighted to attend the renown Nordic Technology Conference MindTrek, joined by other prominent figures from the international web and technology scene.
Over the next few days I’ll be sharing thoughts and details of some of the companies we visited, these include Floobs, RuntoShop and Muxlim. Though, for the moment, I’d like to share my perspective on the Finnish startup scene and community as a whole.

Six Ways that Google Wave is Going to Change Your Business, Career and Life | Think Vitamin
I believe there are six reasons why Wave is going to have a huge impact on you. However, this is all predicated on mass adoption of the technology. If no-one uses it, then obviously it won’t have a world-changing affect. However, I strongly believe Wave is going to achieve mass adoption for these reasons:
1. Google has the world-wide audience necessary.
2. Google has the cash in order to market Wave and promote its benefits.
3. There is a huge financial benefit to working more efficiently. People who use Wave will be able to work faster, thus leaving behind those that stick to good-ol-fashion SMTP email.
4. Wave is open-source (more on that below). If you want, you’ll be able to run Wave on your internal corporate network, without ever sending a single byte of data to Google.
5. You can run it on the cloud, thus reducing in-house IT costs.

Do You Keep Your Social Media Profiles Separate? | WebProNews
In some cases it may be wise to keep social network profiles separate from each other. What I mean by this is that business shouldn't always be mixed with pleasure. I don't mean this in the same way that the Wall Street Journal meant it however. Perhaps a better way to put it would be not all business should be mixed with all pleasure.
