Google David Beckham Hangout - YouTube:


This is a Google+  Hangout with David Beckham.... he's not a Smithie but you get a good idea of why hangouts can be more fun than Skype!

see you on Friday

a snafu...sorry... Our class is Friday... not Thursday.

Dear students,

I'm sorry but my last post was a mistake!

I'm teaching a class for the third year HEC-Telecom option "MNT" Management and New Technologies"  and the message below was intended for them!

Thank you Damien for pointing out the error!

We'll have a guest via "Skype" on Friday.... Harriet Rochefort.  Tomorrow I'll put some photocopies of another chapter of her book "French Toast" in your mailboxes.

See you on Friday and sorry for the SNAFU!

james

ps: Post your biographies so we can see if there are problems with the accents....  We might have to use dreamweaver or another Webpage editor to get the accents right.

"Class tomorrow and a guest on Thursday at 2pm... David Bizer !

Hello all and Happy New Year!

Classes this week...

Both groups will be together this Thursday at 2pm since we're having a guest come... David Bizer !

Tomorrow in Group 1 Thibault will have the floor for part of the class but we'll have to postpone Yuyu and Thomas's talks that were planned for Thursday because we'll be having a guest!

Both groups will be together on Thursday at the same time (2pm to 4pm)  to discuss social media and recruiting with David Bizer.  He's  presently TalentGeek at Hackfwd, but was previously one of the lead Google recruiters for 8 years, etc. etc....  (He was the first Google recruiter in Europe and hired the first 300 European Googlers!)

See you tomorrow.  Group 1 at 2pm,  Group 2 at 4 pm.

here's a blurb about David from the HackFwd site....

PS.... your welcome to invite some of the other MNT students to come as a guest too on Thursday.

Happy New Year! I hope you've had a great vacation...

I thought you might enjoy this article about the story of Zipcar... They're apparently on the verge of being bought by Avis!

See you tomorrow...  we'll finish the chapters from French Toast since we'll probably have a chance the following week to talk with the author.

PS:
Good news:  you can begin uploading your picture presents and bios to the moodle....  you have your logins for the moodle and passwords  (moodle.smith.edu)  but remember:

1) your username for the upload pages is simply enstone or ensttwo or enstthree etc... based on alphabetical order..

 Valeh || Agathe || Damien || Skander || Mohamed || Nicolas || Charles || Gilles || Felix 

(So -- Valeh is enstone, Agathe is ensttwo, Damien is enstthree etc.....)

2) all the files you upload always have the same names: image1.jpg for the pictures, text1.htm or text1.html  for the texts
        -- the text files don't really have to be formated as html files but they can be,
        -- the picture files shouldn't be too big.... 700 pixels in one direction is already pretty big, resolution should be 72 dpi and not more... (who in the class can help people with this?)
        -- If you want to have two pictures you have to combine them using photoshop or the gimp to be one picture

see you all tomorrow....
