Watching Jobs’ keynote address at Macworld and observing the reactions of the crowd to every single one of his moves is just too weird. Weird and scary. I know that the religion/cult metaphor has been overused when it comes to Apple followers, but I can’t help but think about a church when I watch the first 5 minutes of the keynote (before the demo and geeky stuff really start).

I can just see the trivia questions which are going to come up in the various board games in the next decade: who was the first person to receive a phone call from Steve Jobs’ iPhone directly from the stage at the Macworld 2007 conference in San Francisco? Which movie did Steve Jobs and his friend Phil decide to see together while Jobs and him were talking on the iPhone at Macworld 2007?

Very slick machine though, I agree.

Mon beau sapin recyclé

Votre sapin de Noël n’est pas encore fait. Vos garde-robes sont remplies de vieux gadgets électroniques, de composantes informatiques désuètes et de jouets abandonnés.

Alors innovez.

Et si vous avez perdu Marie ou Joseph pour la crèche, ce n’est pas très grave non plus. Quelqu’un saura bien se porter volontaire.

Ready for anything

When the Segway came out a few years back, many people made fun of it, wondering what that transporter would manage to do on uneven terrain and icy roads.

Well, looks like the Segway team might have found a way out of this problem by creating a new model, yet somehow, I think people will still make fun of them.

I’d love to see a bear chase that thing. Heh heh…

Of course, I’m saying this, but I’d still love to try one of them.
