Update: twitter-like web 2.0 project is dukudu.de is auctioned

Posted in Applications, Applications, Development, Development, Mobile, Web on June 21st, 2007

Until June 27th the startup duduku.de is auctioning itself at eBay - including domains, trademark, web 2.0 application, design and company.
Until now, dukudu.de is running the beta of their twitter-like friend information service. You can inform your different circles of friends via a Web- and SMS-based interface: What you are actually doing … or what is going on right now.
The project team did not manage to get the needed capital for a nationwide rollout and the team also separates for private reasons. It’s a great pity!
Some interesting facts for developers: dukudu.de was realized in PHP, based on the CakePHP-framework, and MySQL. They use inbound-SMS numbers from mobilant.de in Germany … at least in beta mode.

Update:
The German internet company allesklar.com AG bought dukudu for 36,309.24 Euro (without VAT). Not bad.
