New Server [en]

As you probably have noticed, I’m having some trouble in getting the domain name servers to work properly.
If you don’t know what a “dns” is, don’t worry. It just means that instead of bringing up this site, my url sends poor visitors to a gandi error message.

It will be fixed soon *fingers crossed*. Thank you Angel.

If you are one of the lucky people able to access this site, you will see that apart from the design, little has changed from the old site. I’ve done away with some old stuff and I’m adding some new things (patience!), but mainly, it’s the same content in a new skin.

All the scripts are supposed to be working by now. Let me know if they bug you.

Surprise! [en]

At last, I have redesigned.

As with any server, domain name, and design change, you can expect a little bit of tweaking in the days to come. Please let me know if you notice anything unusual.

Thanks to everbody who gave me a hand, be it by sending me screenshots, giving me advice on the layout, or helping me out with technical issues.

But most of all thanks to daniel, who encouraged me to redesign now, and who’s counselling and good advice prevented me from messing it all up again. He also did the little graphics you can see at the top of each page, as well as the redirect script which will catch any visitors to my old address and bring them safely here.

I wish you a pleasant journey through my pages, and hope that the new design will bring more pleasure to your reading.

Broken Layout [en]

Here is a screenshot of what poor daniel sees when he come here.

My apologies to all visitors who do not see this page more or less how I see it. I’m working to fix the problem.

Netscape Pain [en]

*sigh*

I’ve seen my site in Netscape 6.

I must have messed up my CSS somewhere.
I hope you Netscape users will forgive me. I’ll sort this out one of these next days.

Return Trip [en]

I just noticed that I hadn’t written down the “tale” of my return trip to India. Maybe I’ll clean up the end of my logbook and add it…

Bilingue? [en]

J’ai exprimé il y a déjà  un moment mon désir d’avoir un site bilingue. Par bilingue, je n’entends pas le fait d’avoir une version du site en anglais, et une autre en français.

Pour une personne bilingue, et même probablement pour quelqu’un qui a appris un tant soit peu sérieusement une langue étrangère, il est tout à  fait évident que deux langues ne se “recouvrent” pas. Il n’y a pas de traduction pure. Et c’est aussi cela que je veux rendre ici.
Certes, c’est embêtant. Les seules personnes qui profiteront pleinement de mon site sont celles qui maîtrisent suffisemment les deux langues.
Mais c’est la seule solution que je vois pour le moment – et c’est celle qui correspond le mieux à  ma façon de vivre le bilinguisme.

J’accueille très volontiers vos commentaires à  ce sujet – spécialement en français!

  • Facebook Suspension: Day 1102.09.2025
    It’s been 11 days since my Facebook account was suspended. Where are things at? The appeal, predictably, didn’t yield any results. No response, no e-mail, no change, nothing. I have no other “official” appeal routes, as I cannot access the platform at all. So I wrote up my appeal in a blog post. What you … Continue reading "Facebook Suspension: Day 11"
  • Appeal Regarding the Suspension of my Facebook Account @stephtara31.08.2025
    Given the official appeal process for the suspension of my account did not provide me with the opportunity to argue my case, I am doing it here. I believe that my account, like others, has been wrongfully suspended in the context of the “Facebook ban wave” that has been going on these last weeks and … Continue reading "Appeal Regarding the Suspension of my Facebook Account @stephtara"
  • Les commentaires qui se transforment en article29.08.2025
    Je me souviens très bien d’avoir eu conscience, quand Twitter et Facebook ont commencé à prendre de plus en plus de place dans la vie en ligne des gens et dans la mienne, de l’impact que ça a eu sur les blogs, et surtout les commentaires. Notre énergie rédactionnelle et interactionnelle s’est trouvée happée par … Continue reading "Les commentaires qui se transforment en article"
  • Pourquoi mon compte facebook a-t-il été suspendu?29.08.2025
    Au-delà de mon petit drame personnel, je pense qu’il est important de comprendre les mécanismes sous-jacents qui décident de nos vies et “morts” numériques. (Parce que quand 18 ans de publications disparaissent en un instant, c’est un peu ça quand même.) On investit du temps et de l’énergie dans une présence en ligne, sur une … Continue reading "Pourquoi mon compte facebook a-t-il été suspendu?"
  • Vrac du jour26.08.2025
    Je me demande si j’ai déjà utilisé ce titre. Peut-être que non. Je ne sais pas par quel bout commencer, j’ai un backlog d’au moins une demi-douzaine d’articles de blog qui font le cha-cha-cha dans ma RAM. Entre autres choses, Facebook me permettait de faire un peu de place là-dedans en déversant vite et facilement … Continue reading "Vrac du jour"
