Itw Christophe Baley Déjà Ministre de l'Ecologie entre avril 1992 et mars 1993, Ségolène Royal reprend les rênes de ce ministère, désormais élargi au développement durable et à la Transition énergétique. De son précédent passage au ministère de l'Ecologie, on retiendra 3 mesures : la loi sur le traitement et le recyclage des déchets de 1992, la loi de lutte contre le bruit, ainsi que la loi sur la « reconquête des paysages », obligeant à la prise en compte des paysages dans les permis de construire. Aujourd'hui, de nouveaux dossiers, plutôt épineux, attendent la nouvelle ministre : Gaz de schiste, nucléaire ou Notre-Dame-des-Landes, quelles sont les positions de la nouvelle ministre sur ces sujets ? 1er sujet sensible, le nucléaire. Pendant la primaire socialiste en 2011, Ségolène Royal souhaitait ramener le nucléaire « à une énergie d'appoint».
Blog de nuit : créativité et publicité, marketing, médias sociaux Cette initiative est juste folle. Elle est aussi visionnaire, et a du apporter pas mal de « cool effect » aux gens qui ont pu vivre l’expérience. Chaque été, en Israël, Coca organise un « summer camp » pour teenagers. Hormones et tobogans brandés en rouge et blanc sont présents. Cette année, chaque participant se voyait muni d’un bracelet équipé d’une puce RFID, qui contenait ses identifiants Facebook, permettant ainsi aux nombreux jeunes de performer des interactions issues de Facebook, mais dans la vraie vie.
Technology Live: Latest Tech News and Gadgets 'The Last Express' PC adventure game is now available for the iPad.

The PC adventure game holds up very well 15 years later, now optimized for touch controls on the iPad's 9.7-inch screen but also playable on iPhone and iPod touch.
Tablet Rumors Multiply as iPad Sales Soar It may have taken a long time for the competition to respond to Apple's iPod and iPhone. Not so with the iPad: All sorts of companies -- Google, Sony and Research in Motion, to name a few -- are sitting up and taking notice of the iPad, thanks to Apple's claim that it sold a million of its tablets in less than a month. Since then, rumors of half-a-dozen new tablets have leaked out. Tablets haven't been this hot since Moses came down from Mount Sinai. But with all the news, there's a lot of confusion. And, so far, none of the tablets are available for purchase, and most haven't even been officially announced.
Exclusive: Google, CIA Invest in ‘Future’ of Web Monitoring The investment arms of the CIA and Google are both backing a company that monitors the web in real time — and says it uses that information to predict the future. The company is called Recorded Future, and it scours tens of thousands of websites, blogs and Twitter accounts to find the relationships between people, organizations, actions and incidents — both present and still-to-come. In a white paper, the company says its temporal analytics engine “goes beyond search” by “looking at the ‘invisible links’ between documents that talk about the same, or related, entities and events.” The idea is to figure out for each incident who was involved, where it happened and when it might go down.
Launching a Nonprofit News Site There's been an explosion in the number of nonprofit news sites, and now you're considering joining this exciting movement. Here's a word of caution: You won't just be doing journalism. You will be an employer, a manager, a grants writer, a negotiator and sometimes a bookkeeper. You'll have a steep learning curve. But if you decide to go ahead, you'll be in good company: Scores of enthusiastic and dedicated people have gone before you and formed journalism nonprofits that are carrying out good work. This module sets out to identify the hurdles you'll face and guide you through the process of creating a nonprofit newsroom.
Internet censorship Internet censorship is the control or suppression of what can be accessed, published, or viewed on the Internet. It may be carried out by governments or by private organizations at the behest of government, regulators, or on their own initiative. Individuals and organizations may engage in self-censorship for moral, religious, or business reasons, to conform to societal norms, due to intimidation, or out of fear of legal or other consequences.[1] The extent of Internet censorship varies on a country-to-country basis. While most democratic countries have moderate Internet censorship, other countries go as far as to limit the access of information such as news and suppress discussion among citizens.[1] Internet censorship also occurs in response to or in anticipation of events such as elections, protests, and riots.
The Relationship Between Facebook and Privacy: It's Really Complicated: Tech News « The tension between Facebook and its users — and governments, and advocacy groups — over privacy is one of the biggest thorns in the company’s side right now, as it tries to balance the demands of the network (and of advertisers) with the desires of users, and with the law. And all of this is taking place in an environment where the very meaning of what is “private” and what is “public” is being redefined, by Facebook and other online giants such as Google, and even users themselves sometimes can’t decide what information they want to share with the world and what they don’t. Over the past few weeks, the social network has been caught at the center of a privacy maelstrom, with consumer groups attacking it — 15 of them filed a formal letter of complaint with the Federal Trade Commission late yesterday — senators sending threatening letters, and growing numbers of users canceling or deactivating their accounts over privacy concerns. And privacy?
