  •  
    After Fuzz, LesPipoles and Crossfeeds, it seems now that a large number of french website are going into legal trouble. Even small local websites are being sued because of a content they displayed with an RSS javascript or a widget.

  • It’s official: internet ventures are not welcome in France
  • Setting up a startup in France, until recently, was a bit like gardening in the desert, but recently, things got worse, it’s a bit like… How can I tell you… Selling porn in Afghanistan… Dangerous.
    In France, like in Germany, many startups are me-too projects, simple cut-n-paste from successful US ventures. Recently, two got into serious […]

    Fantastique, la propagande Chinoise reprend le vocabulaire de Ségolène Royal, laissant apparaitre une lueur d’espoir sur nos chances de médailles dans la catégorie Langue de bois.

  • Where’s Europe Silicon Valley?

    That’s the question Erick Schonfeld is asking us today on Techcrunch, and since I’m operating a stealth mode startup and living in Paris - the worst place to settle an internet venture these days - I’ve been asking myself the same question for quite some time.
    European Startups today are all over the place, even if […]

  •  
    Things are going crazy in France right now, these last days, several startups have been put on trial, either because they do RSS aggregation (Fuzz.fr and many many more) or because they do UGC and ratings (Justeacote.com, Note2be…).
    Most RSS aggregation website sued are in trouble because they have displayed a feed coming from a popular […]

    Il a, parmi ses clients, le célèbre Mittal, celui qui a racheté, dans […]

  • Web 3.0 is coming
  • I must say his vision of the next web is pretty seducing for me, mainly because my upcoming project, Bixmix, is pretty much about this: taking a bottom-up approach to building a semantic web using Web 2.0 tools, and using a dual human-experts/technology approach to do this.

Beside being a pretty good Hollywook blockbuster, this ‘based on a true story’ screenplay gives a detailled explanation on how and when Al Qaida was funded and created and how funds dramaticaly dropped once the CIA […]
