Welcome to my library

About, ,

As I enjoy reading, I’ve decided to open the doors of my library to share with you my feedback on some books I’ve read. But, before you can start looking at my bookshelves, you may need to know a few things. I read books both in English and in French. And I prefer reading in the language the book was written. So, that’s why you may find here some books in French, but don’t worry, everything will be translated into English, of course. Also, I’m maybe a bit weird (maniac?), but I like reading books by author, and by chronological … Continue reading Welcome to my library →

The Unresolved Case of the Kindle

We are just going to talk about the cross-device compatibility and/or offline mode of some great apps: Pocket, Pushbullet, Evernote and WhatsApp. Let’s put it that way: when you have an Android phone, an iPod/iPad and a laptop (Mac for me) and you want that whole … Continue reading Close that device gap (and install those apps) you must →

Je suis Charlie, a message of hope

Thoughts, ,

I don’t feel like writing anything else after what happened in France last week. It just seems inappropriate after those three days of terror. This was an attack on freedom of speech and on freedom of religion, and nobody can be indifferent to it. In this article, I just want to share a some signs of hope I’ve seen over the last few days. I’ve been touched by that impulse of solidarity that spread around the world. I was glad to see hope as people said “Je suis Charlie” (I am Charlie). Three words only to say that we are … Continue reading Je suis Charlie, a message of hope →
