PHP Québec CodeFest 2.0

I will be attending the CodeFest2008 hosted in Montreal on January 5th and 6th. This year’s theme will be all about microformats. Here is a link to the Facebook event, if you’re having trouble reaching the official wiki.

I will be vying to address an hreview project I am getting involved with, unless I’m already done with it by then, in which case I’ll find something Diso related to tackle (if not both).

Note: the event is not limited to PHP by any stretch, and anyone is welcomed. Join us, it’ll be fun. And as always, it will also be a great opportunity to network with your tech-peers.

Last Sprint to the Holidays

It sure has been one busy quarter! Between switching jobs and my many other projects, I need this break like a fish needs water.

A time for family, [hopefully] rest, reflecting on the past year and deep thoughts on what I’d like to achieve in the soon to be new year, and how to best make it happen.

Two more days to try and complete as many tasks as possible to finish my business year on highlights, then I’ll wind down for what I think will be a well deserved break.

iTunes Canada Gets the TV Treatment

Patrick Tanguay led me to Apple’s announcement of the new TV programming offering through iTunes Canada.

I have to admit that I share his lack of enthusiasm for their offer… There’s just no way I’m going to spend money on 4:3 ratio video.

All my screens are 16:9 or 16:10: mac laptop, external monitors, iPhone, and so on. And whatever I’ll buy in the foreseeable future will obviously not going to be any other way.

They’re obviously targeting the last two remaining iPod models with such screen proportions, the Classic and Nano, but it’s just not for me. Sorry.

Nice try though. A bit late maybe but nice.
