Five Things You Didn’t Know About Me

I’ve been tagged… twice! Once by Randall and once by John. Thanks guys! Now I have to post 5 things about me, Pierre…

  • I’m not French… nor French Canadian.
  • SEO and web design are just hobbies of mine. I actually have a PhD in microbial genetics and in real life, I’m working at an ‘innovation consultancy’ helping big firms work out new technologies. It’s really cool!
  • I can’t drink coffee as it makes me ill. So how do I program? I started out on apple juice and Pringles but now it’s just apple juice. Word on the street is that it doesn’t give quite the same kick…
  • I’ve lived in 4 different countries (the shortest stay was 3 months) and visited over 10 countries. My favorite city by far is Frankfurt as it is a great mix of old and new (you can easily be looking at a very old building with a skyscraper in the background!)
  • The first computer I ever played with was an XT (i.e. older than a 286). It ran DOS 3.1, and the first thing I typed at the C:\> command prompt was &quot’Give me all your files". Very promptly (apologies for the pun) it replied with ‘Bad command or file name’. Bring back those days please!!!!

Now I get to tag 5 other people. MWAHAHAHA! Peter Bowyer (sorry for not keeping in touch), G-Man, James Cook (please do it in a cartoon), Nadir Garouche, and KICHUS. Come on folks, let’s hear ‘em!
