Website are “newing” everyday!

It can be seen as a relief too many people (and I include myself in this categorie) that human beings do not working on the same scheme as brand.

The day when the web missed the road!

As a former advertiser, I have expressed doubts about eye-tracking tests. Then my position used to be : an advertising is a message, the place where the eyes watch will never indicate you what message the brain will remember.

Why do I love social web ?

Today, I had a lunch with some of my start-up partners. We are working hard together since several month and we had a refreshing talk wondering what we do fancy most on the web. After, few seconds, it was very clear as to me : I really love the Internet for its social side. That [...]

Act just like your enemy !

The Internet is very often introduced as the murderer of traditional medias. Internet will kill the music industry, the movie industry, the press and television. We could be provocative questioning : how could they still be alive since the incredible potentiality of the Internet?

Some defend the 1300’s due to the writings of Dante claiming for the autonomy of reason, others 1439 for the movable type printing of Gutenberg that unsettle the monopoly of monks on the books publishing, and others 1492 for [...]
