the new jocuri.apropo.ro
After the silent launch of the new http://anunturi.apropo.ro/ (classifieds type service) and the buzz created yesterday with Dana Nalbaru - Romanian artist who launched simultaneously on Apropo.ro her new album “Parfum” (available to listen and also to download), her new music video (available also for download) and her blog, today Apropo.ro strikes again with another silent launch of one of their services - Games - (”Jocuri” in Romanian) - http://jocuri.apropo.ro/ - with a shiny new design and lots of improvements, including the possibility to embed any game.

Congrats to all my colleagues who managed to put all of the above together in such a short time frame.

Not everybody knows but MediaPro Interactiv has a games division  - MPI Games - that really innovates and probably they are about the only ones in Romania creating web games, mobile games andbluetooth enabled games all built from scratch and with original concepts.

I highly recommend you to stay away from Gemcraft (embedded below) as it’s extremely addictive and it also allows you to save your game status :)

uberVU is a service where you can post your content to a variety of platforms (blogging, picture-sharing, video-sharing platforms) and see the responses from a single location. It’s currently in Beta and I thought I’d try it out to see how it goes. In short, I’m posting this with from uberVU.

This entire post, except the current paragraph was automatically inputted in a new blogpost from uberVU so you can spread the love and tell people about this great product. I bet that uberVU will be a huge success once they are out of beta.

Posted with uberVU - say hello to the whole world

Revin doar cu poze din a doua parte. Per total o conferinta interesanta la care s-a discutat mult web. Practic au fost 2 conferinte intr-una pentru ca permanent in lobby erau persoane care discutau si "faceau succese".

Nu sunt deloc multumit de cum mi-au iesit pozele. In loc sa ma plang ca nu am blitz extern mai bine recunosc ca habar nu am sa fac poze si ca de abia acum mi-am dat seama de lucrul asta pentru ca am ocazia sa le vad pe un ecran de Mac.

Asa cum am mentionat si anterior despre eveniment au mai scris - Piticu (liveblogging +poze) & Dragos Novac ++ Bogdana (liveblogging - english) dar si Noro, cu un set de notite foarte pertinente.

Cateva poze de la eveniment. Multa lume cunoscuta (duuuh! :) ) si toata lumea "conectata" - live blogging, live twittering, live smoking, live coffee, live Yahoo! girls :). Pauza s-a terminat. Ma intorc la sesiunea de publicitate mobila si Web 2.0.

Fun has begun on the market - HTTPool & Yahoo.ro

Tags: , , , , , , , ,

HTTPool enters Romanian market as a full service online advertising network, following the market trends by bringing a combined approach to the Online Industry - full service agency & online advertising network. You can read the full story on Hotnews and a more detailed analysis on Doru Panaitescu’s blog. I met HTTPool’s CEO, Timotej, in Warsaw at the InternetCEE conference last november and he is a fun guy with a sound business focus and clear regional markets understanding. I was impressed that such a young guy can lead such a big operation, but I guess this is the way in the Online Industry. It’s funny that neither of the sources that bring us the news mention anything about Timotej.

Timotej Gala, Chief Executive at Httpool Internet Marketing Central and Eastern Europe (Balkan).

Timotej Gala is responsible for media-buying and Internet advertising operations in five CEE markets. Since 2003, when he joined the company, he has successfully positioned Httpool as the market leader in online marketing in South-East Europe. Furthermore, he actively promotes Internet marketing in the region presenting the latest trends and opportunities of online marketing through media and marketing events.

The other news comes from Bobby Voicu - romanian blogger & online evangelist - recently appointed Yahoo Romania Community Manager. Bobby had a very important guest on his online RadioLynx show - Darren Patterson, Yahoo Business Development Director for Emerging Markets, who announced Yahoo’s strategy for 2008&2009 in Romania. Apparently www.yahoo.ro will be online with localized content this fall (august-september). You can see the full story on ZF.

Also, Yahoo! Messenger, no1 social “network” in Romania (if you ask me), will have a localized (translated) version.

This will definitely be a fun year for the Online Industry in Romania ;)

Later edit: quite a coincidence, Orlando posted a write-up about the same 2 events I mentioned above. Check the timestamps ;)

Later edit 2: You can listen to the recording of Bobby Voicu interviewing Darren Patterson

Web Club #1

Loading ... Loading ...

[YahooLilu - Bobby Voicu (Yahoo! Romania Community Manager) & Sergiu Biris (www.trilulilu.ro Founder)]

Organized by Cristian Manafu/Evensys and proudly sponsored by Microsoft, first edition of Web Club took place last Thursday in Club Colocvio and gathered more than 90% of the online industry from Romania. The joke of the evening was that if something happened at the location (airplane crash, God forbid) probably the dot.ro business will freeze for a couple of years.

WebClub will consist of aprox. 10 meetings/year and access will be provided based on a membership fee. Access to new members will be granted based on recommendation from at least 2 current members. It’s a great opportunity for networking but also to get a sneak preview at exclusive presentations and news and probably in the future, a chance to meet with angel investors interested in the online business.

WebClub #1 consisted of some really interesting presentations from Vladimir Oane - about the a.Online entrepreneurship from Romania comparred to European one and b.Ubervu; the news that Calin Fusu (Neogen.ro) agreed to invest in Vertimo, a vertical search engine for local real-estate, created by Brainient (Emi Gal); great networking.

Here are my WebClub #1 Pictures - and more at Victor Kapra and Zoso.

Web-Club #1 by manafu.ro

More write-ups, mostly in Romanian: Orlando, Sergiu Biris, Florin Grozea, Radu, Victor Kapra, Emi, Noro, Ciprian Stavar

As I am new to these kind of meetings and I could not remember everyone, if you cannot see your Twitter ID in the photo titles, please leave a comment on Flickr.

I am looking forward to the next @RoTweetMeet - and who knows, maybe we can organize it in the soon to be launched DOWNSTAIRS ( @downstairs_mash) ;-)

Downstairs - noua locatie, noul website

Tags: , , , , ,
1 Star2 Stars3 Stars4 Stars5 Stars (1 votes, average: 0 out of 5)
Loading ... Loading ...

  A sosit timpul sa anunt mult asteptata redeschidere a clubului Downstairs. 99,99% va avea loc Vineri, 4 Aprilie 2008. Ar mai fi de atarnat posterele si afisele pe pereti, de amenajat barul, de instalat pupitrul (a se citi computerul :) ) DJ-ului si cam atat. In noul Downstairs se vor putea sustine concerte live, seri de stand-up comedy si karaoke. Puteti sa adaugati evenimentul in Google Calendar.

In mare graba, am reusit sa relansez si site-ul clubului, deocamdata un simplu blog. E foarte posibil ca unii dintre voi sa se fi simtit agresati de promovarea agresiva pe care am facut-o in ultimele cateva zile via Flickr, Twitter, Last.fm, Facebook, etc. Recunosc  ca poate am exagerat un pic dar as vrea sa fie foarte clar pentru toata lumea ca nu primesc nici un ban peste aceasta promovare. Pur si simplu o fac benevol, pt ca Downstairs este clubul meu de suflet si sunt extrem de fericit ca se redeschide.

Fac push pe langa proprietari sa "informatizam" cat mai mult clubul si sper ca daca nu chiar de la lansare, ci intr-un scurt timp sa fie disponibila conexiune Wireless gratuita in club, poate chiar si un webcam live care va transmite pe site atmosfera din club. Servicii web 2.0 precum Flickr, Twitter, Last.fm, Facebook, Invita.ro exista pentru a fi folosite si mi se par solutia ideala de a crea o comunitate in jurul unui club fain.

M-as bucura tare mult sa putem spune cu adevarat "Downstairs - E Clubul tau!" si ca fiecare dintre voi sa se simta ca acasa. Chiar daca nu sunt angajat sau asociat al clubul Downstairs, puteti fi siguri ca propietarii  sunt extrem de prietenosi si deschisi la orice - si cu siguranta vom putea organiza multe evenimente din industria online (si nu numai) in aceasta locatie.

Exista Google Apps pe www.downstairs.ro si in curand vom oferi clientilor fideli conturi de email de tipul nume@downstairs.ro cu capacitate de 6,5GB gratuite, contul Last.fm va fi folosit pentru a afisa pe site ultimele piese care se asculta in Downstairs live; veti putea uploada pozele facute in Downstairs pe Flickr si apoi sa le trimiteti catre Grupul Downstairs Events pentru a fi afisate automat pe site (bonus, daca faceti asta si trimiteti un mail la bob[coada-de-makaku]downstairs[punct]ro puteti primi o bautura la alegere gratuita, data viitoare cand mergeti in club); daca urmariti contul @downstairs_mash pe Twitter sau daca folositi calendarul de evenimente de pe Google Calendar, veti putea primi notificari SMS cu ultimele evenimente, petreceri, concerte din club.

Asadar, va astept la petrecerea de redeschidere, iar apoi, daca v-a placut sau nu, daca v-ati simtit bine sau nu, daca o sa mai reveniti sau nu, va invit sa scrieti la voi pe blog despre experienta avuta. Multumesc.

eu merg la
Mare petrecere de redeschidere a clubului DOWNSTAIRS
Bucuresti, DOWNSTAIRS, 04 Apr 2008 21:00 - 05 Apr 2008 09:00
