In response to: Spammers use flattery

Raphaël [Member] · http://www.petitbourgeois.com/
I wonder if one could build a spam engine that uses a thesaurus, to write answers that actually have relevant keywords. Work on the basis of the post's tags, but instead of using the tags, use synonyms.

(And Brnrd and I always thought there was hidden poetry in spam messages: "with genuine genius" is accurate but also beautiful! The rhythm! The alliteration!)

Absolutely true. Almost snuffed my Kindle charging it with a iPhone 220V > USB adapter.

In response to: Free software as in freedom

Raphaël [Member] · http://www.petitbourgeois.com/
And a vague link between free software and privacy protection shows how important open source has become as a moral compass and its practitioners as thought leaders. But this article (in France's most serious daily) also shows how poorly understood the issues are.

In response to: It's this time of the year

bernard [Visitor] · http://www.brnrd.net
don't worry, there doesn't seem to be any consensus on this.

however, i prefer 'website' as it reflects how common the word has become. (remember the days when it was capitalized, 'Web site' - we don't do that anymore either, do we? ;)

In response to: iPhone, Gmail and Lotus Notes

Raphaël [Member] · http://www.petitbourgeois.com/
iTunes allows me to sync contacts with Google, so I'm covered there, but that leaves the calendar.

Again, after a few hours of use: this is the best email experience I've ever had with Lotus Notes!!

Yeah, at least mobile phone makers have agreed on mini-USB as the standard for their products, and hopefully there will be no discrepancies in power levels there...

Actually, did you know that charging a MBP on a adapter that was given with a Macbook (non pro-white) gives identical problems? The charger of the normal MB didn't turn green when connected to the MBP. It's weird, but finally trying my own adapter that was given with the MBP made my MBP boot as normal as it was completely empty.

How bout a new standard adapter that make phones, mp3 players and laptop run from one single adapter (with or without additional plug entries)…

In response to: Web advertising attempt

Raphaël [Member] · http://www.petitbourgeois.com/
Thanks Paul :-)

But exactly: no other point than experimenting. Interesting parallel with this Apple ads analysis: I'm among the "low-cost media" and the quality of the ads that show up on my site reflect that...

One day maybe I'll be on The Deck.

Paul [Visitor] · http://aka.me
well, no they won't drive me away cos u my mate!! but I really don't see the point beyond the experimentation factor and discovering that ur media agency needs to tighten their discovery strategy.
Well some of the ads provide entertainment too I guess...

Good work, and a good reminder summary of not just my own feelings from the event, but also of the relevent speakers.

Thanks for taking the time to write this.
