La fin du Web (Episode 1)

Le Web fut une plaie. Les temps changent, et bientôt l’influence du navigateur, du site web auront décliné de la surface du réseau. Voilà l’histoire presque contemporaine que nous allons essayer de relater dans ce feuilleton journalistique. Pour tenter d’en comprendre un peu en avance les implications économiques. La détonation de l’explosion annoncée (lire ici et là ) du Web 2.0, celui qui a vu fleurir des sites comme YouTube ou Facebook, va aussi emporter le Web tout entier. Pour voir surgir un nouveau paradigme, plus complexe encore à appréhender, mais dont on devine les contours déjà, avec l’émergence de comportements inédits dans l’univers numérique. http://electronlibre.info/archives/spip.php?page=article&id_article=00315

17 Things We've Loved in Web Design This Year

The world of Web design is constantly evolving and endlessly growing, and that’s exactly why it’s worth taking a step by and looking at how far we’ve come. Of course, designers and developers are never going to be purely serious (as you’ll see below), and that adds to the awesomeness of the Web.

Last month we shared a list of the top ranked startup accelerator and incubator programs in the United States. Through most accelerators and incubators, startup teams receive mentoring, guidance and a small amount of funding in return for a small stake in the company. With all the startup accelerator programs popping up across the globe, we thought it seemed appropriate to go across the pond to share a snapshot of the best European programs for the time, money and effort spent. As a part of his field work for the Kauffman Fellows Program (not to be confused with Kauffman Foundation), Aziz Gilani from DFJ Mercury , working in partnership with Tech Cocktail and the Kellogg School of Management, produced our U.S. rankings. Assisting in the evaluation efforts were Professor Yael Hochberg and MBA Candidate Kelly Quann from Northwestern University. http://tech.co/top-8-european-startup-accelerators-and-incubators-ranked-seedcamp-and-startup-bootcamp-top-the-rankings-2011-06#.T8dx4rCdCiB

He’s also hunting new startups as general partner at venture firm Founders Fund and reuniting with Napster’s Shawn Fanning to create Airtime, a live video site. His personal network is astounding, a combination of foresight and fate. Starting as a teenager, when he interned for current Zynga Chief Mark Pincus, Parker has teamed, in one way or another, with the men who now control the modern Internet: Mark Zuckerberg , Mike Moritz , Peter Thiel , Reid Hoffman , Yuri Milner , Dustin Moskovitz , Adam D’Angelo, Daniel Ek, Ron Conway , Ram Shriram and Jim Breyer . “He can see things most people won’t be able to see for a year or two,” says Palihapitiya.

Un nouveau modèle économique d' e-commerce est arrivé en France l'an dernier : celui des beauty box. Les acheteuses s'abonnent pour 10 à 15 euros par mois et reçoivent chaque mois dans leur boîte à lettres un coffret contenant environ 5 produits cosmétiques de grandes marques au format voyage. Une façon pour elles de tester des produits sans devoir acheter des modèles grand format onéreux qui ne leur plairaient peut-être pas. En France, trois acteurs se dégagent sur ce tout nouveau créneau.

6 Startups to Watch in 2012

An Olympic games, a U.S. presidential election and the end of the world are already planned for 2012, but we're more excited about the startups.

10 Essential Features of Every Good Business Website

So your business has a website — or you're in need of one for your brand new venture. Web design can be an overwhelming process, so we've spoken to a few web designers who told us what you need to have on your site ... and what you can probably do without (like crazy Flash animation).
