We hate spam

For the past couple of days we’ve been receiving 1000′s of mails saying that someone at Startspin have been sending mails to non-existing people or spam filters. That means someone is sending out a lot of spam faking an address on the startspin.com

So please don’t blame us – but join the fight on spam!

Cheering for Startspin!

News just in: I presented three of Startspin’s start-up business ideas to Master degree students at the Department for Informatics at the University of Oslo yesterday in a bid to win their help for incubating one or more of the start-ups. These senior students will be doing a practical course in business plan writing and have organised in groups of four where they take different simulated founder roles: CEO, CFO, CTO and CMO.

To my great surprise and joy I found that one of the groups ditched their own idea to work on one of mine! For those of you who just got very curious I’ll give you the name of the project: Startbaby. It will be a Web 2.0 play. It has global potential. Feel free to guess what this start-up will be doing in the comment space below :-)
