I've joined Mobiluck as CTO, the start-up that brings geolocalization features to social networking for mobile phones and other devices.

We've been hard at work to prepare the launch of our next wide-range localization service: Mobiluck Online.

With Mobiluck Online you can be localized in realtime (if you decide to) so that the service proposes you a list of people and places close to you: for example, you're in a walk in the street looking for a good indian restaurant in a city that you don't know.

You get to the "radar" tab and select "restaurant" category to get a list of these fine restaurants; for each you get how far you are and a short description. You can click on any of those places to get more details informations and a map of the area that you can zoom in.

Similarly, you can know how far your firends are from you, or look for a pure beauty close to you (filter on girls that have a photograph).

How about getting in touch with her as she's at 500m from you? No prob, click on the message icon next to her mini profile and enter in a chat session: "Hi, how are you?". Who knows, you'll probably get a chance to meet her for real.

All these features, and more, require a bunch of cutting edge technologies: we are localizing people and places both in a short-range (bluetooth technology) and wide-range detection area; all these technology are with patented. I will tell you more about our tech in a future post.

For the moment, prepare for the launch!

I’m no longer working for In-Fusio. Now I act as a consultant for mergers and acquisition operations where I provide audit, help and advisory to companies facing changes in their business and/or for the sake of mergers and acquisition operations.

I still work hard on my project MOBILEZOO.BIZ providing valuable market information for mobile developers and the rest of the industry.

Since November 2006 — when I left In-Fusio/MobileScope — I am now a free-lance consultant and I provide audit, help and advisory to companies facing changes in their business and/or for the sake of mergers & acquisition operations.

I’ve been focusing on the wireless mobile industry, and especially on three different operations. Find below a short description of each missions.

As you may know, these operations are kept secret hence I won’t disclose any names nor real figures:

1. North America and Europe preys research and profiling for the sake of M&A operations: I’ve been making an analysis of a list of 10 potential preys in the content at-large that make sense in term of business complementarity or the regional location with the acquisitor. For each company I wrote a description of their business, found the market share, analyzed the revenue and gross. Analyzed the technology background and described and analyzed their main assets. A conclusion give advise about their strengths, the relevance of its strategy and what assets will support its future value on the market and the description of the competition that may threaten them in the future.
2. Audit and strategy relevance for the holding company: I’ve been making an audit of a game company in the field of the wireless gaming on mobile phone. The purpose of the mission was both to analyze how they currently address the market and how relevant would be their strategy for the short/middle term strategy. I have reviewed their product line, the cost structure and price position. Additionally, I have reviewed their staff composition and skills. My report pointed the fact that they’ve wrongly chosen to dramatically narrowed their market. My advise was to develop a range of titles that would enable them to target 100% of the market while almost keeping 100% of their original market.
3. Propose a company for a LBO in the field of wireless services and content: I’ve been making an analysis of a 10+M$ LBO pre-project. Market analysis, revenue and cost structure, key strengths and weaknesses was extracted from their business.
   Technology in-depth description. Propositions were made about how to restructure the company and to improve the cash flow generation and increase the margin.

The web has numerous tutorials about regex, so here is not yet another one.

It's about a tool to design and test your perl regex for PHP or java programming for example.

You dont need to download or install anything, it is online, here: browseAs.com/regex

You type your regex, your optionnal replacement string and the source text and it will perform the test for you. If you want to rework you regex, it's simple, just reedit it, everything is already in the form...

Very easy, very useful.

My web site essentially relates to my professional activities.

You will certainly notice that almost none of the article and the content in general is translated into french. Don't see anything else than the lack of time. As most of the subject interest technical people around the world, I use english as the main language for this site.

On the blog section, I post some articles that link to actual products I've designed and released, such as the pool of internet services dedicated to webmasters and programmers browseAs.com

Again, thank you landing there.

Cheers,
