Coup de gueule contre le boycott de Facebook ! Facebook sort d’une période de turbulence inédite. Les internautes ont fait trembler le réseau au point que son patron, Mark Zuckerberg, a présenté des excuses personnelles à ses utilisateurs la semaine dernière. En cause: les options de gestion de vie privée! Elles ont été jugées si dangereusement faibles que certains acteurs influents du net ont décidé de se désinscrire du site et ont appelé les internautes à en faire de même. Évidemment cette campagne est excessive! Ce conservatisme, cette peur du changement si contagieuse, m’a rappelé l’époque ou certains prétendaient que le téléphone mobile était synonyme d’esclavagisme et la cause de la fin de la vie privée… Ils juraient ne jamais y céder et pourtant! Facebook n’est pas dangereux en soi. Nous vivons, depuis l’avènement de l’Internet, depuis les années 2000, dans une société de plus en plus transparente. Pour autant, évidemment Facebook pose des problèmes. Facebook est loin d’être parfait. A lire cette semaine sur le net:

Five Classic Ways to Boost Your Note-Taking - Note-taking - Lifehacker Glad to see the Cornell Method here. I use it and love it. I would not skip on the summary at the bottom. I've actually never seen or read of it done without it, but nothing wrong with adapting. Though I wouldn't adapt it until I've tried it the was it was intended. There are templates out there for the Cornell Method but a strait-edge and a pencil will do the job nicely. And as far as going visual. I found the only thing that anyone really cared about, as far as what other students were doing, is the guy who though he knew more than the prof and questioned everything that was said.

Par Guillaume Brunet, le 22 juin 2010 Voici donc ma première chronique parue dans le numéro de juin de MARKETING QC où on retouve aussi la collaboration de mes amis Yannick Manuri, Michelle Blanc et Samuel Parent. Produit, place, prix et promotion. Pour ma part, je recommande d’en ajouter un cinquième des plus essentiels : Évaluation, le chaînon manquant de ce qui est maintenant convenu d’appeler les 5 E du marketing. Alors que les marques se contentaient de vendre des biens et services, l’augmentation constante de la concurrence, et la diminution de la durée de vie moyenne des produits les poussent aujourd’hui à mettre à la disposition du consommateur non plus de simples produits, mais de véritables expériences de consommation. Les moyens de diffusion de l’information également ont évolué et se sont multipliés. Évangéliser Les méthodes de promotion également ont changé. Bonne découverte des 5 E ! Commentaire

8 Things Designers Should Teach Their Clients When starting as a designer, you might encounter some issues along the way, especially in the relationships you develop with your clients. This happens mainly because the clients quite often have the wrong idea of what we actually do and think that “anybody can design a website”. In their opinion it is as easy as opening Photoshop and drawing something, then writing three lines of code and there you go, you have developed a website. We all know the reality of is totally different, but until we explain this to our clients, they will not start understanding us and will not value our work any more than they currently do. The way of improving their opinion is trying to give teach them different lessons, either by telling them directly or by letting them understand through your collaboration. However, it is more likely to help if you do it before signing a contract, because your working relationship will change and will be clear to them from the beginning. 1.

Wingme - Get better matches with the help of your friends Am I Really Any Good at this Design Thing? :: Echo Enduring Blog The design community is a wonderful thing. I really mean it. Despite the fact that some aspects of it can occasionally seem a little repetitive with the reams and reams of pointless lists that I have seen over and over again, the community endures. Despite the fact that there are literally hundreds, and probably even thousands of sites and blogs screaming out for our attention, most of us still manage to forge relationships. Am I Really Any Good at this Design Thing (image from ShutterStock) Personally, I know that I am very grateful for all of the relationships that I have established and seen grow since I really became a part of the community. Yet, like so many great things in life, the community can be something of a double edged sword – though not necessarily in a conscious or deliberate way. That’s what this article is about. I’m sure that I really don’t need to say this, but the internet’s a big place – I mean it’s really big. A Big Measuring Stick So the community is big.
