This blog is not only a digital notepad for me but also an information source for others. I’m really happy about to see that other companies and blogs are also interested in my thoughts and want to share them. Once in a while I’m presenting talks at appropriate events and recently I started gaining experiences as author.
Here’s a little selection of publications:
