iTunes End is Close ?
Interesting article from M. G. Siegler “The End of iTunes” on Medium. May I remind you about a series of blog posts I wrote back in 2015 ? It has been a long time but the subject is still relevant today surprisingly. Rethinking iTunes — An Introduction Rethinking iTunes — Looking Back Rethinking iTu

The Cost of Internet Centralization
Good to see that, some people are starting to realize that giving too much control to places like Facebook or Medium is not good or maybe is not the best fit for everybody’s interests. So, Signal v Noise is leaving Medium. Are we witnessing the start of a rebirth of decentralize writing and blogging

Stop Selling My Data !
Who cares about privacy and user data ? Not ATT, T-Mobile or Sprint obviously. John Gruber reacted to this. Who cares ? Well, it seems Tim Cook does. Full text of Tim Cook in the Time Magazine.

Blogging About My Interests
Currently adding another tent pole to my current interests (Apple, Photography, Privacy) that I want to blog about: climate change. Apple is a lifetime passion.

2009 vs 2019
No, you won’t see two pictures of me ten years apart. No, but think about it. Suddenly, within a few days, or even hours, people started to share those pictures of them taken in 2009 and now.

Bye Bye Tumblr
I used to be on Tumblr since 2009. When I came back on WordPress, I enabled cross posting my stuff here to this platform. I had more than 3200 followers but very few of them came to my blog. So, this is wasted energy and electrons. 🤓 In the spirit of focusing my energy in… Continue Reading → [https

Health Care & Apple
A big statement by former Apple’s CEO John Sculley: “We’re going to see something similar in health” while comparing to the iPhone impact on the world. Even from the outside, It seems to me that Apple found their way with wearables. The Apple Watch 4 is a prime example of this. And the AirPods could

Testing a WordPress Plugin for Lightroom
I’m testing the result of the WordPress Lightroom export plugin. I discovery this from the WordPress Reader glancing at new articles like this one. I installed the plugin, tried it.

Expressing Regrets
I feel some regrets about not coming sooner than 2018 to revive this blog. Instead, I elected to spread myself all over the place: Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter. But times are changing. Things are shaping up pretty well around two subjects: Apple and digital photography. I’m back here for a l
