Svenska

Igår hände något som var avgörande för hur vi i Sverige använder Internet i framtiden. Susanna Kallur startade på 110m häck…och föll. 

Nu var det inte själva loppet i sig som var förändringen jag talar om, utan istället det faktum att SVT.se/OS’s liveström gick omkull på grund av den stora trafiktillströmningen. Innan det här hände har vi sett hur Expressen, Aftonbladet och andra tidningar gått omkull när stora nyheter har drivit in Svenska folket på nyhetssajterna på jakt efter senaste nytt. Men nu var det alltså Webb TV’n på SVT som skapade masshysteri.

När Peking OS är över kommer Svenska folket minnas ett OS med fåtal medaljer och desto fler misslyckanden. Beteendeförändringen däremot kommer man inte komma ihåg, den bara hände.

So what is this Midsummer thing

by ronnestam on June 20, 2008

Today it’s Midsummer evé in Sweden. This means all Swedes go to the country side, collect flowers all day and drink all night. To round it up we all end up in the grass with someone and make love until the morning comes.

Eh, or as Wikipedia explains it:

Midsummer may simply refer to the period of time centered upon the summer solstice, but more often refers to specific European celebrations that accompany the actual solstice, or that take place 24 June and the preceding evening. European midsummer-related holidays, traditions and celebrations, which are pre-Christian in origin and have been tried to be Christianised as celebrations of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist as “Saint John’s Day” festivals, are particularly important in Northern Europe.

Anyway. Happy Midsummer to all of you! I’m of to the country side and I’ll collec….eh…sorry.

(I’m also of to vacation, meaning there might be fewer blog posts the next couple of weeks)

Varför

by ronnestam on April 13, 2008

Har just tittat klart på Nyheterna och fått höra att den 42-åring som varit misstänkt för bortförandet av 10-åriga Engla nu erkänt. 42-åringen har tagit Engla när hon har varit på väg hem på sin cykel och sedan dödat och grävt ner henne på en annan plats.

Inga ord räcker till för att beskriva vad jag känner just nu.

Engla. Vila i frid.

Tekniken verkar fungera. Men går upp och ned eftersom Scandic Hotell verkar ha en rätt risig lösning.

It’s time to apply for Konstfack 2008

by ronnestam on January 27, 2008

Konstfack is the Swedish university collage of arts, crafts and design. It dates back to 1818. And to get more students to apply in 2008, a movie has been created to draw attention to the school.

The movie is directed by RGB6 in Sweden. It seems they’ve used a high speed camera to make it.

Ok…here it comes. I personally think it is boring. The first 5 seconds is very nice, then I found my self fast forwarding the whole thing. Konstfack has posted the video all over their web site and I hope it doesn’t scare people away cause The school is a killer if you wanna study art & design!

Sometimes when you’re about to go to sleep you come up with more or less intelligent ideas.

Yesterday was one of those days. I started to write on a Swedish text about developing ideas. However, the text came to life and the end result wasn’t really what I expected. But it’s kind of quirky and fun. At first I thought, this should probably be kept in the drawer. But then…sharing is caring.

If it’s intelligent or not? Who cares, we gotta have fun too!

Future challenges for the Swedish sport Industry

by ronnestam on December 5, 2007

Ronnestam in Sportfack November

In the November edition of Sportfack, the Swedish trade press for sport companies, I was interviewed on what effect digital communication will have on the industry.

Usability, content, range of products, constant change and an understanding of digital communication within the management team was the core message I tried to get across.
