Patagoniacs

Recycle ! Recycle !

Patagonia and Ebay are putting their effors altogether in this Common Threads Initiative. 

Really good move. 

Recycle, re-use, revival. 

That's a good opportunity to sell your kids clothes, but also your old retro cardigan ...

The reasons why my blackberry will be sent to Mister Recycle

 I finally turned to an Iphone 4 for these reasons : 

- There is the Allosurf application

- I like these 2 apps for pictures : 

    - Shakeit

    - TiltShiftGen

Here is a result of what Shakeit gives when shooting Leroy Grannis Book.  

- And the screen is much better to watch "Seaworthy".

And because I am fed up having old phones at home, I'll send them to Mr Recycle . The aim is not to get money from that, but make sure the components will be used again or recycled.

2020 - All goes digital ?

I spent half a day in a conference organized by XAnge Capital. As usual, very interesting, a lot of projects, ideas, people.

Herve Schricke asked people, CEO, investors about their vision for 2020. Will everything go digital : books (with edifree.fr and the Ipad for example), music (with believe.fr for example) ?

Will cloud computing be the solution for companies ?

But what interested me was the presentation made in introduction and the question of the senses and how to improve the online experience with touching, smelling, feeling.

So here is a concrete example : look at the picture of the rose. I can write everything about this Rose Senegal you will still miss the main point about it : the smell. This rose smells incredibly good.

Just imagine a technology bringing you home the smell of this rose and this would be a real technical revolution. You can buy online fragrances, products you can touch from home, ...

A dream ? Good or bad for the humanity. I don't know. But that's a challenge.

Hum hum hum ...

oups, sorry :-) but it's too cold here.
