Photos with BillG

As usual these days, there were all sorts of cameras present at yesterday’s activity. This is great because I of course couldn’t take my own pictures. Here’s a selection of pictures that I have received: Yep, that’s me, to his left first and then to his right. And here are links I’ve received/found with pictures of the event. I’ll be editing these as I find/get new ones: G-IT Photos by Séverin Ferrand Photos by Stéphane Rangaya Photos by Emmanuel de Taillac Photos by Maxime Gaillard Photos by Stéphane Rangaya Photos by Johanna Piou

Music in Seoul

There was one thing I loved about Seoul and it’s that, wherever you were, if there was a little green near you, there was music to be heard. Gyongbokgung was not an exception. Indeed, I actually got to see the artists behind the music and one of them was glad to perform before the camera:

This post is long due, but I guess since it doesn’t concern me I wasn’t in a hurry. No, I’m just kidding. Of course, the most exciting moment of every competition is the announcement of the winners, so here they are, in case you are not interested in the official press release: Software Design First place: Thailand — Team 3KC Returns/Project LiveBook!

My Blog - Beta!

When I announced my new blog last night, I forgot to mention something: I should have added the word “Beta” somewhere near the logo, because this site is far from being complete. And I’m not talking about content, because we all know that a blog is never complete when it comes to content (unless it’s closed), I’m talking about code! No, this is not a “Web 2.0” web site, it’s just that the engine I’m working on to host this hasn’t been finished.

Back online!

So, I don’t really know when this will be true because it will depend on the time the new IP address replicates through DNS, but still, I’m back online! So, my previous host lost most of my data. I will slowly restore/rewrite as much as I can. For now, enjoy the new look and new engine, of which I will probably be writing in the following weeks as I develop it further with my friend Patrice.

I’ve been tagged (prologue)

Since Patrice tagged me, I guess it’s my geek duty to share 5 things people don’t know about me with whatever stranger stumbles upon my blog (and the few regular readers.) I’ll need a moment to think though, because if there are aspects of my life that are not public it’s probably because I like them that way. There’s a trip to China coming up soon (Saturday), so I’ll have some time to think then.

Wow, what a day!

In the good sense of course… Today was a great day! It was a day of discovery, of rediscovery, of new things in general. So, what’s all the excitement about?, you might wonder. Well, let’s see, more or less in order: I might be onto a gig in Malaysia, how cool is that? I was one of the winners of the Trick-or-Treat category in MAKE’s Halloween contest! I get the latest issue of MAKE magazine.
