  • La 9ème édition des Jeux Africains s'est ouverte le 10 Juillet dernier à Alger, ils verront s'affronter près de 9700 sportifs représentant 47 nationalités différentes.

Merci à Amina, lectrice assidûe du quotidien le Soir d'Algérie; elle ne manque jamais de partager avec nous les petits traits d'humour dont ce journal est friand.
  • On reparle de Second Life sur la toile (un petit merci à Africa2point0 pour le papier passé l'autre jour. Très très instructif). La question en toile de fond étant la suivante: Second Life est-il mal concu pour le business et y a t'il trop de bruit (over hyped) autour du phénomène?
