Something really interesting is happening in France right now! I see a lot of bloggers that complains about those new social services that they feel forced to use every week… Here are a few example those complaints: Sarkofrance about friendfeed, Monsieur Poireau about permanent novelty and last night Gaby telling me that he likes writing [...]
I love this video because it exactly shows how collective histeria comes. First, the guy is alone, it is a bit ridiculous to see him dancing like this all alone. When the second guy arrives there is a kind of risk : will they fight? Will they stop togther laughing of themselves… When the third [...]
Yesterday, I had a discussion with a PR professional about the possibility to make pearltrees a mass market interface immediatly. I think, it is just impossible for now (and the next following months). However, I am certain it will be a huge success by the next 4 years. The issue there is what does make [...]
Writing my last post “I do not beleive in truth”, I figured out that I melted two ideas (at least). One is the impossibility for any human being to establish “truth” and the other point was the superiority of discussion over any synthesis effort.

I am amazed about how many messages, news, images, recommandations I read everydays. The amazing thing is not really the amount but rather the diversity of them. Intimate signs, personal news, professional messages, those from my friends, the feedbacks of pearltrees’ community, the web industry, the world… And I have (probably like you) to deal [...]

Moreover, it might take some month [...]
Last week I have spend one day and a half attending to the web conf “Le web 08″ in Paris. I did not write about the event because I have not seen anything that would deserve a post. However those big events always have their “grands moments”. Here, it came after the conference : the [...]
Home! We all remember the dying E.T voice saying home, I want to phone home… Have you never had this same feeling when you had got lost on the web? That is my point today : what is a home on the Internet? Do we still need a home pages today ?
Let’s spend some times [...]
When I was working in advertising I spend my days working on messages to convince brand consumers to buy some more products or services. Then my framework was : a brand is talking to consumers that are isolated from each others. By the way that was true since people did not communicate that much together [...]
Few years ago Jeremy Rifkin wrote a book called “The Age Of Access: The New Culture of Hypercapitalism, Where All of Life is a Paid-For Experience” on the idea that being the owner of goods, services or information means nothing anymore.
