Didn’t think you could still make good money with mistyped domains without getting into serious legal trouble.

Flicker.com teaches me wrong.

Lately they even turned down an offer of 600k.

According to them they have more than 150k uniques per month. That does not really surprise me :-).

But who will be willing to pay such a high price for the associated legal risks?

OK, the news is not really that new and it’s a bit comparing apples and oranges but it’s still a remarkable success.

And today it was announced that Opera made an exclusive cooperation with Talkline, a major german mobile provider. Mobile Internet customers will have Opera on their cell phones.

I think that Opera does everything right. Instead of fighting with IE and Firefox they sneak their way into other market segments that were neglected by the majors: mobile access, Wii,…

And the mobile internet future will probably not be that the website adapts to a particular device (like .mobi for instance) but that the device adapts to the website (like Opera mini does)

Vor einiger Zeit bekam ich mal von meinem Freund Philipp von den fine people at Supreme New Media einen Zugang zu Townkings - deren neuestes Baby.

Ich muss sagen ich find die Idee einer lokalen map-based community echt nicht schlecht. Derzeit sind nur Beta User dort da Townkings sich in closed beta befindet. Es verspricht einiges!

Watch out for Townkings!
