tunesBag is a little big star - Werbeplanung.at Panel 07/17/2009

The Werbeplanung.at Summit 09 is the most important event for online advertisment in Austria this year. On friday (07/17/09) there's a panel called "Little Big Stars" moderated by Helge Fahrnberger where Startups from Vienna present their product, vision and possibilities for online advertisment.
Together with Clemens (tuplao), Christopher (soup.io), Thomas (popurls), Sebastian (tripwolf), Georg (play.fm) and Martin (Kununu) I'm looking forward to show that Austria/Vienna really has a prospering startup scene!

RIP Michael Jackson - Watch the Thriller video

One of my favourite artists, Michael Jackson, passed away last night. Despite of all the controversies he's definitly the king of pop and I'll always keep in mind his great work as an outstanding artist. Below you can find one of my favourite tracks, Thriller (full version). Enjoy!

tunesBag @ Music Hack Day in London (July 11-12)

I'll be in London at the Music Hack Day taking place in July - I think tunesBag with our full featured API is an exciting project in this context! I'm sure we'll have a great time!

European music sites are revolutionising the music industry, not least with their eagerness to open up their data with APIs.

We will be running a Hack Day independent from, but working with the companies at the forefront of this movement. We hope you'll be able to join us.

tunesBag provider switch done without any problems

This friday we've moved our servers to a new server center in Vienna and tunesBag is now served from the ORF Medienhaus (home of Ö3, ORF Online & ORF Teletext) in Vienna. In this building Silver server is operating one of their datacenters and we're using the facilities of their partner nessus.at.

So far there are no problems with the new setup as it seems - in case you've found something not working properly, please let us know at offie(a/t)tunesBag.com!

Below you can find two impressions of our work on Friday ... the trunk full with server equipment and the transport of the hardware with a high-tech vehicle ;-)
