INNOVEO: MacDo and happiness

After having managed to bring Lorenz in a McDonald in 2004, we were confronted today with a kind of "small miracle": Bojan has eaten a McDo with us!



Wow

I know, that was an important news ;-) But, hey, we have to stay focused.

BLOG: Russell Beattie is blogging (again)

...because I can't shut up.

I think I am one of the last blogger who has remarked that Russell Beattie is blogging again. Actually since ... months (April 2007, gosh!).

I was a happy reader of Russell during months before he decided to stop to blog in April 2006, after having posted something like 3'000 posts!

It is a bit as meeting again an old "friend" (relatively speaking) after some times, you get the impression that you haven't stopped to meet/to discuss ;-)

I like very much the tone/his voice. It is about mobility and his last project called mowser (mobility browser).

Have a look, worth a read!
