On Monday the 1^st of February we’ll launch CoboCards-Pro.

In this version we have considered lots of your wishes.

As we communicated from the beginning we will ask for little amount of money for it. It’s 3 Euros.

Because you helped us a lot with your feedback during the past months, we will give all users, that signed up before 1.2.2010 full access to CoboCards-Pro for a whole month. After that you can decide whether to continue with Basic or purchase Pro.

For All users that sign up before 28.02.2010: Be aware: If you decide to be Pro-User for 12 months within February you will get 3 months extra for free! If you don’t purchase Pro until 28.2.2010 you will maybe see a downgrade-screen. Unfortunately, we had to limit the number of sets in CoboCards-Basic. You don’t have to quit Pro actively.

This is our Video to CoboCards-Pro which shows you the big new features in CoboCards-Pro.

Ok, lets compare Basic and Pro in our Wiki.

It’s time for an Educamp again. This time at the university of Hamburg on the 5. & 6. of February 2010.

Is it possible to talk about education without CoboCards beeing involved? Of course not. Therefore we will participate with sessions and discuss in those of others. As we did at the 3. Educamp in Ilmenau and at the 1. Bildungscamp in Cologne we will sponsor the Educamp in Hamburg.

We are glad to see that the list of participants was full after a few days. 200 participants means new faces and interesting discussions and input for our project.

Ship ahoy Hamburg! We’re comin’!

If you have missed the Webmonday where we presented CoboCards and you would like to watch the recording, here it is.

Unfortunately there was a small problem with Adobe Connect. As a matter of fact we were the second to present. The presentation is in German. If there are any English speaking online conferences out there we are certainly willing to do the same in English.

You will see some screens of the big update coming soon and of the iPhone/iPod app.

Have fun with it!

This is not just the title of a movie remake by Felix G. Gray but also the topic of a bet within our team.

It was the 10^th of December. Without any warning we received this mesage from our dear friend and colleague Tamim: “If our users should have created a data base of 1.000.000 flashcards by the 31^st of December – which I really doubt – I will invite you all for a dinner at an Italian restaurant”.

Well…this should be possible. We accepted the bet. Of course, we didn’t want to stand idly by. So we realised a few new promotional activities to get more people using the Pool. The hunting for the million was started.

On the 16^th of December Tamim asked us after having a look at the flashcard development of the past six days: Ok, when do you want to do the Italian job? We couldn’t avoid grinning broadly. Who doesn’t want to go to an exclusive Italian restaurant?

Without you hardworking guys we would never have such a nice dinner. A big hug to all of you. Self-evidently we talked about new features for you in CoboCards.

We deeply hope that Tamim will offer such bets in future again. There are still Indian, Turkish or Chinese restaurants which would be happy to do the catering for us

On Monday, the 18th of January 2010 Tamim will do a demonstration of CoboCards at the Online-Webmonday at 7 p.m. CET.

The topic of this webmonday will be “Education & Social Media”. Innovative education applications will be presented. And we are live on stage

Unfortunately for those who don’t speak German the whole event is in German. If you should understand German you can participate as audience. All information can be found on http://webmontag.de/location/online/index

P.S. Of course Tamim will talk about the new features coming soon for the first time. Don’t miss it!
