[ Apple iPhone 4S ] Siri are you for real?
Who hasn’t dreamed about a personal Virtual Assistant (VA)? I mean, a really smart one… Who hasn’t dreamed of not getting our hands dirty while cooking that good old meal and asking basic questions that we should know but that we still don’t know. Siri is here, says Apple. Have you tried it? Does it fit into your daily routine? Does he understand you? Is he useful? Continue reading

Un cellulaire Facebook: achetez-vous?

Location-based services Foursquare @ the Mashable Media Summit
For those who are 1) skeptical about check-in system Foursquare like the Time or just totally 2) crazy about it, here is an interesting interview with Co-Founder Dennis Crowley directly from the Mashable Media Summit.
Interesting facts:
The act of the check-in is like an ad impression for shop owners
The Foursquare staff grew from 3 to 25
Every business wants its badge. Duh! But that’s not going to happen, according to Dennis, since it will take off the uniqueness around the act of winning a badge Continue reading
Foursquare takes us where Yelp, Loopt, FireEagle, Tripit, facebook, and Praized left us
Drop it like it’s hot!
We were like scared school kids dropped by a newbie bus driver. FourSquare picked us up on some shady street corner where the others dropped us. Now, FourSquare seems like it is riding on its own bandwagon. FourSquare seems to want to lead us in a strong direction, after all the other iterations quiet down.
I’m gonna be honest, when all my friends were bugging me on Facebook and Twitter with their 4Square statuses, I was annoyed. Profoundly. Leave me alone! Give me a break! Not another buzz tool!? After some more social pressure (from my social media communities), I registered. Just to save my spot and reviewed a few spots. Maybe I am just grumpy. But as Michelle Blanc and Tom Webster say it beware of sharing your location with everyone on your social networks, if they can figure out where you live. And good stalkers can do that. Webster says he would use the application in an anti-social way, getting all the freebies from the store owners, but not sharing his location. He also talks about badge fatigue. True. How long can we be excited by a badge? And how many hours will I spend to get the “recognition”. None (for me), but my friends do. Still, his community must know via his badges. And they are cute. They are the equivalent of Hello Kitty’s for geeks, see a list of Foursquare badges from Tony Felice here. Continue reading

Ellen G.: une sexy styliste pour une sexy geek
Hier, le chat est sorti du sac. Depuis hier, un premier épisode intitulé Les lapins de poussière a été mis sur le web, accompagné du vidéoclip de la chanson reggae «Ma doudou».

The iPhone 4 obsession, again!
This video showcasing the advantages of the HTC versus the iPhone 4 is so hilarious! If we disregard the slang language, this video shows the “famous iphone obsession”, from an obsessed fan trying to purchase an iPhone4. The Apple brand is so powerful (Apple is #7 and Google is #1) that all the advantages that an HTC has can’t take the obsession away. There is one strong truth though, the social component of the apps is crucial. Let’s call this a “sect effect”. Continue reading
[Foursquare] Social media: forever in the dating phase
What is the traffic in monthly unique visitors of the most talked about location-based mobile and web sites Brightkite, Gowalla, Foursquare, loopt? And newly Check.in, the mobile web app, which Techcrunch positioned as the remedy to checkin fatique? Here is a quick draft from February 2010 from Compete.com (US only) data that gives a quick portray of forces in action here. Foursquare has seen a big jump in February 2010. Smells like the start of critical mass adoption? It is funny how Spring ignites social messaging services, see Twitter: le grand bond du printemps blog post which highlights the February 2007 Twitter jump in Statistics, just the way Foursquare has seemed to be “jumping” in February 2010. Is that a pattern?
Foursquare has now been valued around $50M to $70M by four Venture Capital investors, cited in Techcrunch and Social Media Today. Only speculations? Probably. Continue reading
Augmented reality: what it looks like (iPhone)
Via Jean-Julien Guyot, I discovered this interesting video showcasing Stella Artois Lebar’s augmented reality iPhone application integrating local search. this is similar to the application that Lonely Planet UK presented at the e-Tourism conference of Infopresse. Read this definition of How augmented reality works:
What is Augmented reality?
According to How Stuff works, augmented reality, blurs the line between what’s real and what’s computer-generated by enhancing what we see, hear, feel and smell.
On the spectrum between virtual reality, which creates immersive, computer-generated environments, and the real world, augmented reality is closer to the real world. Augmented reality adds graphics, sounds, haptic feedback and smell to the natural world as it exists. Both video games and cell phones are driving the development of augmented reality. Everyone from tourists, to soldiers, to someone looking for the closest subway stop can now benefit from the ability to place computer-generated graphics in their field of vision Continue reading
