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.

Techcrunch did it again. Following Twitter’s lack of availability during the last days, Michael Arrington posted a blank post that made over 400 comments in 2 days. Probably it will be one of the most popular posts of Techrunch all time. Just check some of the hillarious video comments :)

This is somewhat similar to Bobby Voicu’s confirmation that he’s got the job as Romania Yahoo! Community Manager. Posts with no content but that convey a lot of insight.

And since we talked about Twitter, feel free to follow me in those moments of service availability ;)

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
