+1 for Charlie. This is just a wish of course….
I would add Russell Beattie (Yahoo!) and Charlie himself ;-)
I’ll go anyway at Les blogs 2.0 but a mobile panel would have been nice. On the other hand this mobile panel could be gathered somewhere else… at another time… beginning next year ?
I am thinking…

Pong from Blinkenlights: You could use a mobile phone to play the arcade classic Pong right on the house. One started by dialing a number. A bit later one heard a voice explaning what to do. The house stopped its current program and switched over to the Pong playground: two paddles and a ball.
One used the 5 on your phone to move your paddle up, and number 8 to move it down. One were usually controlling the left paddle and playing against the computer on the right. If a second person called the system as well, it got into control of the other paddle so both could play against each other. Once everyone hung up, Blinkenlights switched back to its current playlist.
What do you think about that one Yaz ?
Being a nomad is one thing. Being a geek and a nomad it is something else… you are always looking for power to feed your little toys.

Olivier pointe grâce à la newsletter de Rezonance sur trois blogs orientés technologies en Suisse (mais écrit en anglais):
Swiss High-Tech & Innovation
Swiss – US sci&tech
European Biotech Network
Trois blogs auxquels participent Pascal Marmier qui travaille à la Swiss House Boston (consulat technologique) et c’est là que je deviens un peu nostalgique puisque j’ai habité pendant quelques années à quelques mètres de la Swiss House alors à ses débuts. A cette époque Xavier Comtesse en était le maître des lieux (mais aussi l’initiateur du projet) déjà accompagné par Pascal. La blogosphère s’aggrandit chaque jour, j’avais découvert récemment que Xavier Comtesse, maintenant directeur de l’antenne genevoise du Think Tank Avenir Suisse participait à un blog sur Genève: Genève Place Neuve (malheureusement trop peu souvent mis à jour).
Le monde est petit dit-on.
Moblet Instruction Language (MIL) is a declarative language that enables a developer to author a cross-platform mobile applications (a.k.a. Moblets) using only XML, Script, and XPath. MIL is compiled into byte-code by a hosted gateway server and delivered to any device capable of running the Moblet Runtime Environment (MRE).

Note: I just found out about those links, I did not have the time yet to check on them…
This is what I call a QR Code.
From Picturephoning:
The Northwest campaign takes Japan’s QR code phenomenon to a new extreme, blowing up codes to heights as great as 10 meters, or 33 feet.
