Partnership between Sogeti and Polytech

By Quetzal on Wednesday 12 September 2007, 00:13 - News

This week, Mohamed alerted me about a weird article from a newspaper: Polytech'Grenoble, the engineering school we were graduated from signed a partnership with Sogeti, a subsidiary company of Cap Gemini. The firm commits to recruit all students graduating in 2010 (about 110 engineers).

This news in Polytech'Grenoble 's Website was also mentioned by computing newspapers, local TV channels as well as the economic newspaper La Tribune.

This is surely good promotion for the school. Is it something interesting for students? This can be debated. However, as it is written in several articles, it reflects that it is currently hard to hire employees for IT consulting companies.

Polytech'Grenoble 's alumni, do not forget to subscribe to the alumni association, APOG.

New FONspot in Lyon

By Quetzal on Wednesday 11 October 2006, 10:52 - Technology

Almost two weeks ago, I have received my Fonera from FON. What is FON? Well, I think you can already go to this website to read about it.

FON_Renan What have I done with this Fonera? Well, it has became a Wifi hotspot. If you come along to Lyon to visit me, you will be able to reach it (its name is FON_RENAN). My neighbor noticed it right away because her computer suddenly connected to my Access Point. She ran to my door asking to me what had I done. I am sure my explanations were confusing. I promise I will write this article about it soon, but I am quite busy now.

FON is not an open system, but if you are already a Fonero, you can connect for free. Here is a link for a map of the FON hotspots.

I am now waiting for Neuf to complete its agreement so that I will have two hotspots: one in Lyon (Neuf) and the other one in Grenoble (Free + Fonera).

Do not hesitate to leave comments if you have some questions.
