Nicole Kidman using a PowerBook

Posted on 24 June 2008 in Macintosh Tips & Help, Personal | No Comments »

These days I’m so nostalgic about PPC computers.
I’m still amazed to see how flawless my PowerBook G4 1GHz + 256 RAM is on Tiger.
One of the first tricks I wrote on MacAmour is a how to take a snapshot from a DVD (movie).
Here’s another snapshot I took for that review but I didn’t published:

When I wrote that trick, I never thought MacAmour would have such a success and longevity.
I started it when I was 25 years old, on june 27th I’ll turn 28 already!

Oil Price & “Co-Voiturage”

Posted on 13 June 2008 in Personal | No Comments »

Oil prices are raising still, soon it will reach the $150 pick.
I found the idea to create a new website based on the Ning platform called: “Tunisie Co-Voiturage”.
Co-Voiturage is a french word meaning that two drivers share a single car for a same direction.
Because on my opinion, one of the ways to reduce the consumption of energy is to share it. For example, if you and your brother are browsing the internet by night, why not being a the same room, sharing a single lamp?
The community has started on Ning, about 10 members for the moment, and hoping to have more.
You can follow that example for your countries or cities.

On my opinion this kind of concept should be used for each and every rare resource on the earth, but I won’t create a website to encourage people sharing their showers with their neighbor of course! 

Here’s a link if you’re curious.

Innovate, Don’t Imitate/ N’imitez pas, Innovez!

It’s a personal post this time. A post written with a feeling of deception.
A few months ago, I created a community for students to help them share documents for the CPA exam, I’m administrating the community with a friend: Sahbi.
The community is growing in an impressive way, and I’m so proud of the 150+ members.
Within two days, Sahbi and I discovered that 3 members tried to copy the site and make community like the one I created… These followers called their websites by their names myname.ning.com, while the “original” one is “compta.ning.com”.
