Mr .ogv or .ogg, if you were a person I will push you from the cliff to see what kind of splash you will make. Mr .mov you’re next.

The good thing with new browsers doing website security validation, statup checks and al. is we got more time to drink the coffee.

Ouf! The paracétamol is kickin’in. The headache is fading away. I can start considering the day has already started. Let’s tick some boxes!

The back of the A4 envelopes of the HMR&C are perfect to draw. And they can’t stop sending several times the same thing. Great, more spare!

I would be very please to see my children working at the first moon station. But only if we can talk well, they might be lonely out there.

Ah ben ça alors.. c’est ma fête aujourd’hui! Mais le plus incroyable c’est qu’on me l’a fêté! Ah ben ça fait fait bien plaisir finalement.

I wonder if we can summarize the whole “copyright” concept by “Don’t f* me!”. Which might explain the mis-understandings of “open” licences.

RTM don’t let you modify completed dates. I need to click on “complete” as soon as the task is done. Please display a grateful animation :-)

When Quicktime exports .mov files with H264/AAC codecs that you can’t drag into your iGadget, try to rename them with mp4, m4v or m4a.

Apple researching during 2 years how to build the cut & paste on the iPhone? No, it tooks 2 years to sell it as a new feature to everybody.

Problem with video on the web is you still need to encode about 4 times your file to match the various platforms (desktops, iGadgets, 3G)

Ouf. Finally understood and implemented my best way to display videos using HTML5 video tag and Flash as a fall back.

Can’t see how to setup those “smart” phones to choose *automatically* the best internet connection 3G/Wifi depending on where you are.

Watched the sequence about the sun on “Journey to the edge of the universe” documentary. Dorian said: “Ooh! the glorious sun!”

I think when you’re giving up at lunch time the sound of your fork against your porcelain plate, you already gave up a lot of (good) things.

Preparing the pack lunch for Cléa and Dorian..

Firefox 3.5 is out today. It’s a massive upgrade that well worth the download. Upgrade now!

Obvious for mippin.com: RSS feed (txt+jpg) on a non e-commerce website is “mobile” compatible enough. But audio & videos are still an issue.

The iTunes chart in America is a major influencer of how kids today discover and talk with their friends what kind of music they like. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/02/business/media/02apple.html?_r=2&fta=y

Todoist, Remember the milk, Gmail tasks, tibowork, todo.txt, pen and paper, etc. Where is the end of it? “Just f*ing do it!” syndrome again!

Fascinated by the evolution of the Boom box replaced by tiny no bass mobile phone speakers. We need to find a way to wear the boom! A bass speaker belt belly?

I knew something was wrong: I was drinking some wine in a “Shrek the third” painted glass from an old Nutella promotional item.

“Going to Gatwick (the airport far away from London).. in a minute..” says the incredible man while his passengers are waiting perplexed.

Why designing a website for full capable browsers AND another version for small screens, limited devices is not made at the very beginning?

What I love when surfing the web with any mobile phone is it’s constantly remind you that you’re never holding the right tool for your task.

Spent a day to evaluate Regus business lounges in London. So far the best one is at Berkeley Square (on Bruton St) http://ping.fm/xiWEi

I think the day you unsubscribe from Jakob Nielsen newsletter, you really start to understand usability. I did.

I hope the weird and obscure experience this new Nokia E71 on 3 network gives me will be fruitful.

The initials of Wednesday, Thursday, Friday sounds very familiar to me.

The power of Google docs and spreadsheet and forms is underrated. I like to be able to access the documents through JSON and Javascript.

Wrote strategy to migrate a B&B to Bed & Business with associated IT services instead of its traditional and obsolete Bed & Breakfast model.

“In order to be eligible to the 14-Day Money Back Guarantee you must not have used your product.” So I can only look at the box then?

Helping a friend to migrate from a jailbroken iPhone to a Blackberry. It’s another experience proving sync apps are slow and broken.

When madness struck the woman, she wants the man to push the library (that weighs a ton) of a few centimeters to let her curtain to slide.

Quand la folie frappe la femme elle veut que l’homme pousse la bibliothèque d’une tonne de quelques cm juste pour laisser passer son rideau.

Learning how to code a Google gadget to talk with a google spreadsheet and managing some adwords accounts. Guess which task is fun for me.

Dorian finished the storyboard of the next Ben 10 cartoon simply called “Ben 10 supers”. He’s writing now the dialogues and the new song.

It’s barbecue time, it’s also time of a good Villiger!

Created few test pages to see how some webfonts Droid Android & Palm Pre Coconut are handled on “modern” browsers. http://thyb.net/assets/

After all those years, even with CSS 3 / Html 5 web fonts goodies, using specific italic/oblique version of a font is still unreliable.

Playing with Palm WebOS restore image and the new Coconut font on a CSS stylesheet. It pays off to have fonts well designed for screens.

We believe we think through words. Would we think differently if we master other languages?

Comme nous pensons par l’intermédiaire des mots, nous pensons dans une langue. Pour mieux penser il suffit de maîtriser plusieurs langues.

Finishing updating macs with 10.5.7 and Safari 4. I was waiting all my critical tools to catch up with new system. Next wait: Mac Chrome.

I hope the rushs of the film Home are in high resolution with more than 24 frames per seconds. Currently there is too many jitter effects.

I made a mistake saying Safari 4 was asking permission to download webfonts. It was a misconfiguration with my Linotype FontExplorer. º¿º

The best analysis I’ve read about the Air France 447 crash: The ‘Coffin Corner’ and a ‘Mesoscale’ Maw by Miles O’Brien http://is.gd/TKcF

Converting film “Home” from HD to old CRT TV format. Film will be shown without commentary, without sound at all. Pictures do the talking.

Can’t watch “Home” the latest “green” film on http://is.gd/RVPo -It hangs all the time. Downloading a pseudo HD version from a torrent site.

Going to The Depot Waterfront Brasserie (London SW14 8SN). Hope it will be good.

Le suicide par pendaison (non prouvé) de David Carradine me laisse un goût amer et un tourment dans mon âme. Paix à la sienne.

It’s hard to downsize from a medium resolution screen (1920x1200 on 15.4" ~147 ppi) to a 100 ppi (1600x1200 on 20"). Everything looks rough.

Setting up a win xp desktop app on a 1920x1200~147dpi-15.4" screen. I can because this form based app has a zoom feature. Thanks Filemaker.
