Toying around with mixcloud (Crunchbase) – pretty interesting to see the quality of the sound being shared on this platform. They miss an iphone/osx app though…
Linux UX : swell but still not user friendly
I have no clue (aside from Firefox) what this program list may be good for…. (<troll> anyway Gnome is better </troll>)
Paris half-marathon 2011
This was my first half-marathon ever, and while I did train a lot and regularly, I never actually took the time to try this distance before. The max I ever did in my training sessions was 15km. I did thus start the race with some level of apprehension, quite unsure of what the best way to handle the event was. I started in the 1:50:00 objective group and set my runkeeper to a 5:12 min/km objective pace.
The first 10 km where a dream, I was literally flying by all the other runners and caught up a bad 1st km (5:50) du to the slow packed start to end at an average of 5:09, ahead of my target pace. Km 10 to 15 were slightly harder though, both physically and mentally I started having some doubts and I also probably should have eaten a banana or sth at km 5 and 10. At km 15 legs felt heavy and I struggled to keep my target pace, hopefully on km 18 a glass of energy drink got me the boost I needed to finish up the race and even to sprint the last 500m, and finish up at 1:52 with a pace of 5:14, slightly behind my target pace but still quit allright.
I loved that experience, running on a new circuit with 30 000 ppl is definitely and exciting experience.
L.A. Noire
Interactive story à la “Under a killing moon” by rockstar, the authors of the AAA Grand Theft Auto series. The motion capture technology used to animate the character’s faces in the game are stunning. Comin on xbox 360 (yay !) and ps3 in may. Hope I find some time to play this one…
Thanks @rodrigo for pointing this out
