It is now in English. So head on over to listen to one of Sweden’s most successful bloggers.

I recently stumbled across this video where Randy Zuckerberg (or Randy Jayne), sister of Facebook’s CEO Mark, posted a video of herself and a couple of mates dissing Friendster, Yahoo and so on. This video also spoke about Facebook’s IPO intentions. She’s the one starting the song. It was on youtube for quite a while since Feb but was plugged out by Facebook soon after. It’s quite hilarious so check it out below. And yes, Facebook is hiring a Stock Administration Manager. Why? You guess.

One of my entrepreneurial idols has passed away a couple of days ago. Anita Roddick, the founder of The Body Shop, died from brain haemorrhage in England on Sep 10.

Known to be very charitable, she has contributed immensely to children organisations The COTE (Children on the Edge) organisation she founded being one..and countless others. Her last interview was with The Daily Telegraph’s Emma Thelwell, conducted few weeks ago. On a more personal note, I have reproduced a stunning piece of article she wrote for the Financial Times November last year. Rest in piece Anita… and we will remember you for times to come.

Yes it’s true. OK we know it’s some personal assistant doing all the dirty work, but US presidential candidate Barack Obama has now joined LinkedIn in a bid to reach the masses. Oh ya and btw, Obama is three degrees away from me.

He was also cheeky enough to pop a question ” How can the next president better help small business and entrepreneurs thrive?” and got 100 answers immediately. Wait I just refreshed the page and it’s 107 replies. OK Refresh page again…and 112 replies! Amazing. Go see for yourself. LOL.

President 2.0 indeed.

I met Eric during the HPAIR Business conference in Hong Kong two weeks ago. He’s a jolly good fellow and we all loved his down to earth personality. Eric spoke in the entrepreneurship panel. Below is his introduction, followed by the interview. Enjoy!

Business 2.0 recently came out with an article about some companies that will disrupt the status quo. My favourites are the 3D printing and Zink. Zink would be really useful if it’s going to be embedded into cameras. What is your favourite?
