Last week has been a busy one for the Web 2.0 community. Berlin is taking another steps in strengthening its position as the European Web 2.0 hub with the Berlin Web Week.

Starting with the BarCamp Berlin 3 more than 800 visitors and a wide range of presentations; followed by the Facebook Garage on Monday at the zanox GAP Campus. The official Web 2.0 Expo started on the 21st and hosted an international crowd of Web 2.0 advocates. The LateCrunch event was a big highlight with more than 300 guests.

We are proud that we were part of this exciting week, not only by hosting and sponsoring the main events but also by contributing our own event. Luckily people were not too tired after a full week of events to celebrate the finale of our zanox Web Services Contest.

We think the Berlin Web Week has been a great success and we are happy that we took actively part – we enjoyed it a lot!

We are looking forward to the Berlin Web Week 2009

Many thanks to everyone who made this Berlin Web Week happen.

On 24th October 2008 the zanox GAP Campus hosted another great event: the zanox Web Services Contest Finale – Night of Innovations 2008.

Past Friday piabo had invited 8 other Berliner Internet companies to gather for a nice afternoon/ evening in the sand.

Berlin also has its beaches – this one especially for Beach Volleyball. Here the water doesn’t come from the ocean but down from the sky in little drops… Despite the bad weather conditions the zanox team was close to Olympia shape. We missed the final by few points. Congratulations to mokono who were the winners of the tournament! Well played!

zanox now is back in training for the next tournament to bring home a gold medal!
