mduchesn: After 3 hrs @ Paris Auto Show, am convinced Electric & Fuel Cell will make it to the mainstream.
mduchesn: After 3 hrs @ Paris Auto Show, am convinced Hybrid technology won't go mainstream.
mduchesn: Antro : http://www.solo-duo.hu
mduchesn: Antro : first time ever I see a carton-made booth. Clever.

mduchesn: Green cars everywhere. Amazing. Al Gore must be proud.
mduchesn: GM Volt : the (green) future is now. Available in Europe : 2010. I'll be one of the first drivers, granted.
mduchesn: Getting used to those 25*C outside temp mid October. Weird.
mduchesn: Paris Auto Show : over ! Back 2 the car w. the tram. Super.
mduchesn: Champagne wineyards, here I go !

mduchesn: Heard Elvis this morning. Got me gooseflesh. Still The King ;-)
mduchesn: Except if some guys switch off the Internet, we'll be able to get in touch w. each other : this crisis may help the World 2.0 to appear.
mduchesn: No wonder why we're heading to a 1929-type of crash. Maybe even harder. The good news : today, we have the Internet to connect w. the World.
mduchesn: Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport : 1.4M€. The perfect example of a world w/o limits. Totally absurd.
mduchesn: Dacia Sandero, Chevy Volt : 2 ways to re-invent the Automotive industry and overcome the downturn.
mduchesn: @eFiberTools : creating the strategy and then implementing it is the key.
mduchesn: @eFiberTools : Sure. The fun of it is to build sustainable relationships with both partners/vendors and the customers.
mduchesn: Why virtual exhibitions held on 3D virtual worlds won't make it soon : social networking. The handshake. The chat. The people.
mduchesn: Odebit conference on Services To The Persons. Truly boring. They speak %, not people. Can't work, when you're a number and not a person...
mduchesn: As the dotcom bubble burst, the financial crisis which is hurting our economies has started in the US. Time to change the World ?...
mduchesn: Ouch. Mc Cain puts his campaign on hold to save the US economy. How about changing the World, for once ?
mduchesn: Last day within traffic jams to go talking Fiber To The Home ;-)
mduchesn: @jmplanche seriously speaking : on Open Neutral networks, how about widgets for the end-user to check the performance of her providers ?
mduchesn: @jmplanche OK. I'm first ! ;-)
mduchesn: @jmplanche when will you publish the Witbe Widget ? ;-)
mduchesn: FTTH : everybody's waiting for the killer app. Let's create the Shazam of Fiber...
mduchesn: Free WiFi : same issue here in CNIT than in Brussels Expo : no access to the Internet. 3G works well...
mduchesn: FTTx & connected, urban networks : helps reducing costs, lowers the bill for the collectivity.
mduchesn: Been musing in the Marne valley this morning. Champagne wineyards. Beautiful, and peaceful. Might be the real life.
mduchesn: Testing Google Chrome : neat. The most intriguing to me : there's no Menu bar. Quite an interesting shift...
mduchesn: Decided to move all my professional life on The Cloud. Ubiquity...
mduchesn: Google' Chrome available @ 12:00PM PST. Can't wait for the download. Can't wait for the Mac version neither ;-)

mduchesn: Disneyland is a resort for tourism. Nigloland and Asterix are ones for the real fun.
mduchesn: I really don't like Disneyland Paris. Too much crowded, for too few real attractions for the family. The only thing you really do : walk...
mduchesn: Disneyland Paris : same type of population than in the US resorts. Some call it Globalization. I think it's more Bozolization :-(
mduchesn: @jhettrick hi James : hope the POF Conference will highlight some real stuff for Home Networking. Keep us posted please !

mduchesn: The Frenchies @ the Olympics : what a disaster ! I'm ROTFL ;-)
mduchesn: Thinking of a new business for my years to come : a custom bike shop, aimed at road cycling and... fixed-gear fans.
mduchesn: Twitter : the ultimate weapon against censorship ?
mduchesn: Means open access Networks = mix of public and private money.
mduchesn: We're used to compare open networks to railroads or motorways. The problem is : none of those were created first on public funds.
mduchesn: Open Access/Neutral Networks : we must think of the passive infrastructure as an open/free giant pipe.
mduchesn: Playing Tennis with the Kids. That's Sport for real, compared to the Olympics ;-)
mduchesn: Tip of the day : "Do not try. Do or do not. There is no try." (Master Yoda)

mduchesn: You may want 2 C Police agents here in Lyon : they look like L.A.P.D.'s. ;-)
mduchesn: Uncle Sam is winning all over the place : even French Railways' employees wear smart uniforms ;-)

mduchesn: Amazing 2 C how enterprises 1.0 can be so far behind 2.0' s reactivity (and pro-activity)
mduchesn: Building Open Networks for the collectivity / community seems to be always a one-man show.
mduchesn: Pat Russo & Serge Tchuruck to resign. Dear AlcaLu' Board, please consider me as candidate for the CEO job (we'll make the Net 3.0 together).
mduchesn: Once upon a time, Optical Fiber was an open medium. 1998 and Marketing killed it. We must re-invent it.
mduchesn: Give me 10M euros, and I'll make you a cycling team to win The Tour ;-)
mduchesn: Decided 2 embrace the Pau Broadband Country project @ 100%. Got 2 make it real, for the sake of its founders & actors.
mduchesn: Google on Net neutrality and end-user' owned last-mile broadband connection : that's a pretty strong signal for Internet 4 Everyone...
mduchesn: @pcarles Skype me : miniotdr Friday morning better. It's about Virtual Worlds. Talk 2 U then.
mduchesn: Surfers go to Anglet for its sweet spots. Gamers will come to Pau for its ultra-broadband network. Granted ;-)

mduchesn: Certainly thru Firefox 3.0 download
mduchesn: My PC is sick : got a virus, playing "online" Chess automatically
mduchesn: Driving back from the Acome' Ultra Broadband Fest
mduchesn: Lucky me, the taxi driver don't know the place :-(

mduchesn: Got 2 call on 4 cabs to get 1 taking credit card @ Lyon central station !
mduchesn: iPhone : maybe not the best technical specs, but by far the best user experience. Which one do U prefer ?
mduchesn: The Telecoms industry is also a Contents provider now.

mduchesn: back @ hôtel Mercure Val de Reuil for the week. Full of Italians elders. No Monica Bellucci around :-(
mduchesn: here in CDG : you wait at rental car drop-off, at security gates, at boarding gates. And then you need to take a bus to the aircraft.
mduchesn: commuting from Charles-de-Gaule airport. Awful customer experience. Better fly from Orly : it's way smoother.
mduchesn: Going Virtual means do a Web 2.0-based training center. Means we can address the whole industry.
mduchesn: Going Virtual might help quick ramp-up.
mduchesn: the question is : how to start. Brick & mortar, or virtual ?
mduchesn: working on this 'FTTH' training center in Pau
mduchesn: Is it the hotel network or the Typepad system ?
mduchesn: Typepad issues. Can't post anything from the hotel.
