2008 Top Ten Articles on this Blog

In 2008, here are the top blog post that caught your interest, 9 out of 10 are in french. I am always surprised to see that the Top 1, L’évolution du commerce de détail: l’industrie du vêtement, that speaks about the Evolution of the retail industry and the future of the clothing industry with emerging new business models, having more of a social media focus is certainly a trend to watch.

As a woman, I was (of course) going to react to this enticing post: Choosing a phone is a lot like choosing a boyfriend, from the italian blog Experientia. In reference of an interview that Younghee Jung, a Senior Design Manager at Nokia gave to a women magazine: women.ca (which is in beta). I need to add, that as phones have a limited duration in time, just like a 2-year boyfriend, then this allegory is fine; but if we think about choosing a husband, then no. Because… size does matter.

Who is (are) your tribe (s)?

Slowly going into 2009 make me think about, what this new year will bring in my life,or what I want it to bring me. I like to start and end the year reading inspirational books and thinking inspirational thoughts.
