Now this is what I call marketing!

HEMA is a Dutch department store. There are 150 stores all over the Netherlands. It also has stores in Belgium, Luxemburg, and Germany.
Take a look at HEMA's product page. You can't order anything and it's in Dutch but just wait a couple of seconds and watch what happens.

Turn your sound on…

Agora -a public space for art and ideas


I warmly recommend a visit to the Agora Gallery in Jaffo.

I met Martha Bar, one of the owners, today and was delighted to discover a friendly and resourceful person positively bubbling with wonderful ideas for the promotion of the arts.

I look forward to cooperating with her and Shahar her partner.

Meanwhile the art is good, the space is stunning and the people are nice - go.. go.. go..

39 Web-Based Tools That Don't Require Registration

Ever so often I bump into something good and useful that I think is worthwhile sharing.

If you've never heard of Orli Yakuel yet,
shame on you...

No, she is not a new contestant on survivor...

Orli Yakeul is one of Israel's most important bloggers and probably the most influential in all things technological.

This blog post of hers is a great way to get know more about her activities,
not to mention being an excellent resource for cool, free, registration free,
online services and tools you can use.
