moishe : Qui pour remplacer Raffarin ? (Mar 29 2004 10:29 GMT) - Après le cuisant échec hier de la majorité présidentielle, J. Chirac est aujourd'hui confronté à un choix capital pour relancer son gouvernement et retrouver la confiance du peuple. Il semble que le changement de premier ministre soit une des possibilités, même si l'ensemble des partisants de l'UMP ne parlent pas de remplacer l'homme. Toujours est-il que le gouvernement tel qu'on le connaît aujourd'hui doit impérativement être revu puisque les français en on décidé ainsi. Raffarin sera-t-il maintenu pour montrer la déterminiation de la droite à vouloir réformer la France ? |

Ca peut sembler paradoxal pour un moteur de fils Rss de proposer des alertes par emails mais les créateurs de Feedster expliquent leur choix par le fait que les agrégateurs sont encore très loin d'être utilisés par tous et que le format email a encore de beaux jours devant lui. |

redinfo : WARNING : un nouveau dvd de Nick Cave dans les bacs (Mar 29 2004 10:29 GMT) - C'est aujourd'hui que le nouveau DVD de Nick Cave arrive officiellement dans les bacs. Attention, il ne s'agit pas là d'un live de la dernière tournée ou d'un documentaire. Il s'agit juste d'une compilation des meilleurs clips de l'artiste australien et de ses Bad Seeds. Aujourd'hui édité en DVD ce regroupement de clips, dirigés pour la plupart par John Hillcoat, existait déja sous la forme d'une VHS : la nouveauté tient donc juste au support. |

Last part of Forests and Trees (Mar 29 2004 10:27 GMT) - So on to the "last lap" here. We had kind of a "roundtable" on problems that we've seen, been near, or helped create - that then led to project failure and/or crisis. So: Toot your own horn - if you don't, no one else will :) "Heroic" acts (often as a result of the "hero" screwing up) get rewarded - steady, good, quiet work rarely gets recognized Social success (golf with the boss, for instance) often leads to more success than does actual work Fixing the wrong problem Doing a project with new/trendy tech because management read a magazine, or the developers want to refashion their resumes Sticking with old tech for too long so as to stay in a "comfort zone" Death marches in general Announcing a launch date before there's a contract or requirements (Consulting firms! |
