Put up a Swedish (where Nokia is from?) version and get users around the world to come up with their own local versions... Winners get a prize and their podcasts loaded on the 14days website? Just a thought...

I am a podcast addict (addicted to iTunes), especially now that I figured out how to put my Youtube videos into my new video ipod! Then again, we watch / download podcasst that are produced in other countries too. It's interesting to now consider how much localisation should brands do for different markets (should they want to produce vod/podcast). Maybe it helps to choose interesting locations for shoots, then at least ppl in other countries get to see the Singapore's bright sunshine and nice greeneries. ha. (am sure ppl like Kevin, stuck in cold snowy places would love to watch that). Looking forward to more interesting episodes.

Some of the newer handsets nowadays come with web 2.0 features such as photoblogging and YouTube sharing. Nokia is heading in the right direction and they have a huge edge over their competitors. Though for some weird reason, I personally dislike the tagline for the N series (”It’s what computers have become”), it’s just stretching the envelope abit too much. Especially so when some of the models eg. N76 seem to be stricken with firmware and hardware issues. Check out this new startup I came across last month, I think it has the potential to become very popular -> http://www.qik.com/ Yes, convergence is the buzzword.
