Netzwertig.de probably the most avid bloggers (and even non-bloggers) probably should be known. In one of her most recent articles they nominate the 10 best German start-ups in 2009. Included are pages that I still had never met, but no less interesting.

As would, among other things CaptchaAd . The principle of this start-ups is as easy as it is ingenious: you all the annoying picture codes should be known, which are used for example in registration in order to make life difficult for the bots. CaptchaAd is now getting there and trying this method now annoying to use for advertising. That does not necessarily mean that only the company's life is made easier and creates a niche for more money-grubbing. No, the user can release the captchas are easier, because sometimes codes are not only checked, but may also have to answer questions about a product.
Ultimately, of course, the implementation determines the success of this project. The basic idea is not bad.

Secondly, I want to start the play.fm a bit closer. In play.fm is a page for fans of electronic music. On this platform, DJ's have the opportunity to upload their mixes and share them with other users is available. This is of particular interest to the clubs fans among you, the more on mixes, are instead on individual tracks, for example like they have elsewhere on the Internet (at last.fm , etc) are provided.

The last start-up in 2009 among my favorites is the page steereo.de . It amazes me that this project was not often in the media. In steereo it is a site for streaming music. And while contemporary music, such as Sexy Bitch by David Guetta and Paparazzi by Lady Gaga. And now comes the kicker: All for free! Even the complete album by David Guetta (One Love) can be found there. This is because steereo contracts with Universal, Warner and EMI have. Funded through the whole thing is a 30-second advertising insertion. This is not the beginning of each song, but only sporadically. When exactly I do not know, but an album should probably get by without advertising.

Those were my favorites of the best German startups in 2009 . What think ye?
