Alexandre Fugita on January 21, 2009

Taking advantage of the momentum we already recorded our impressions of the second day of CP Labs using Gengibre. This podcast business is so interesting and this second one was already feeling more natural than the first one. Listen below to the podcast I recorded with Rafael Bucco of ResultsON.

Trying out Pagseguro at Campus Party (or, RedBull for R$1,00)

Alexandre Fugita on January 21, 2009

pagseguro-redbullPagseguro, the micropayment system from UOL (*), is doing a test-drive for those who wish to understand how the system functions. Every day, from 6pm to midnight, a promoter from Pagseguro will sell RedBull for R$1,00. The link to buy it is:pagseguro.com.br/cparty

The value is symbolic and a way of encouraging people to register for Pagseguro and begin to use it. Yesterday evening I tried it out and it was super easy (see photo).

Those who wish to try the tool and buy a very cheap RedBull just have to find a promoter with a Pagseguro t-shirt and ask for the instructions. Today I saw them carrying green balloons to call attention to themselves

(*) Pagseguro is a supporter of Startupi
