Today is my last day in the first 100% (non freelance) job I had. It’s funny to see how man can be attached to a team and to an environment.
It was a great experience for me, they recruited me even before I finished my MS, 1 and 1/2 year ago. I learned a lot, realized [...]

I’ve just read via the AXNA that Adobe, Google and Yahoo! worked together to allow SWF searchability. My first thought was ‘finally they made it’ :)
But while reading the FAQ I’ve been a little disappointed by how this indexation seems to happen:
[...]The Flash Player technology, optimized for search spiders, runs a SWF file similarly [...]

I am stepping down as the ‘User Group Manager’ of the Adobe User Group Geneva. It was a great time for me being a UGM, Adobe really cares about us and the community, I have an incredible collection of Adobe’s T-Shirt :p.
I’m very proud of the growth of AUGG, we started in November 2006 with [...]

Here are a few quotes of her, with my answer below:

I still remember this cold and foggy morning, doing some exercises.
This morning, I’m leaving again to give my services to the country, well I wished I could be more useful :)
Anyway, this blog will most certainly be muted until I come back, in May.
So, bookmark or grab the RSS feed and wish me good [...]

Lately someone found a hole on my wordpress blog and use it to inject hidden links.
I was a bit reticent of upgrading my wordpress as I had customize it with a lot of my own functions but enough is enough!
So I’m going to reinstall a fresh new wordpress and say goodbye to my functions :( [...]

In an over charged world of projects management and ideas, it sometimes hard to gather the attention to the ultimate decider (your boss or yourself) to use new technologies.
I started at the beginning of this week to seed (and water it ) my boss brain with new possibilities with AIR. Some techniques worked greatly [...]

Monday we had the AUGG (Adobe User Group Genève) meeting to celebrate the release of Adobe AIR and FLEX 3.0. I had a camera recorder during the meeting and I asked several questions (Why AIR? Why Flex? Why Flash? Why Not Silverlight?). The answer are funny & serious at the same time :)
