chez Shyftr, tout est sympa (mais rien n’est nouveau)
Aujourd’hui, nous aussi on peut parler des sites next best thing killer-app trop web 2.0 beta qui déchirent. Tenez par exemple, Shyftr, c’est un modèle en terme d’ergonomie et d’interface. Clair, léger, intuitif, avec un joli logo et des jolis effets. Mais c’est tout. Shyftr est malheureusement comme beaucoup d’autres sites, une sorte d’aggrégateur de vie sociale et de flux RSS.

Notes for my Sex 2.0 Keynote
Since I wrote my book “Naked on the Internet,” one of the questions I get asked in just about every interview is: how did you get interested in this topic? And sometimes I draw a total blank when I try to respond, or I just want to say, “duh – cuz it’s awesome.” But the answer I give is that I’m interested in sexuality and the internet in both the personal sense – I use it to find people to fuck and to entertain my horny little eyeballs – and the professional sense – when I was a sex worker, i
