ARM Linkedin: 3000 and some vanity… but only in the URL – http://arm.com/linkedin

Alban Rampon — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 18:26:22 +0000

If you are interested in ARM Architecture and in ARM Technology, you are probably already a member of the Linkedin ARM Based Group. If you haven’t feel welcome to have a peek. I sent the following message to the 3000 members and do welcome your feedback here or there! Dear all, I was finding it [...]

Nginx rewrite rule for WordPress Buddypress

Alban Rampon — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 12:16:49 +0000

If you land here, you know that nginx web server does not support .htaccess files Apache is working with… And, complying to Murphy’s Law, most of the help you will find is for Apache! Whilst building a server on Tegra 250 (ARM® Cortex-A9™ dual core), Nginx had been chosen for some of its features. Running BuddyPress, from [...]

Comment changer d’hébergement sans interruption de service!

Alban Rampon — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 00:38:20 +0000

Voici, étape par étape, comment j’ai déménagé mes services vers Hostpapa, un hébergeur chez les cousins Canadiens mais qui est plus rapide et… fonctionne. Le tout a été fait sans interruption de service! Trop de contacts se plaignent de voir leurs emails refusés car Free/Proxad/Online considère que leur adresse IP génèrerait trop d’erreurs. Le service [...]

EDA Tech Forum: Deep dive in the Electronic Design Automation world

Alban Rampon — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 20:00:13 +0000

The Mentor Graphics’ EDA Tech Forums at the Williams F1 Conference centre in Oxfordshire, UK provided an interesting diversity of topics I would summarize that tomorrow’s tools as well as new IP development will ensure we keep getting smarter and smarter mobile devices in our pockets without having to carry your charger! Dr Wally Rhines, Mentor Graphics [...]

How many blogs do you need?!

Alban Rampon — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 21:17:47 +0000

Quite an interesting question when you look at how many blogs I have created within the last year! WordPress.com, Google Blogger and now this one. I found that WordPress.com was too limited to my taste as I like to personalise. After all, I will be the one seeing my blog most often (reality check ) [...]

My experience in Nuremberg: Cortex-M4 at Embedded World and ARM Partners

Alban Rampon — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 18:16:58 +0000

Here is my first shot on the company blog. I only publish a extract here. On the day, I was also present on Twitter, sending a few of the pictures you see below but also from other booth showing ARM colours… I arrived in Nuremberg, Germany on Tuesday lunchtime and noticed immediately that the pace [...]

STEM – Preparing the visit of the office

Alban Rampon — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:45:00 +0000

I managed to meet the European Facilities Manager at the office. And I learnt how much the company pays in electricity. Each building spend £15,000 a month in electricity only… And there are three buildings. Now I see my £70 per quarter in a different way. I find them almost attractive! Hopefully this number will [...]

STEM Ambassador – Part 3 – Netherhall Visit

Alban Rampon — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 13:00:00 +0000

Going There… Well, I was a bit dreading the entrance I have to admit. Expecting almost to be searched, to go below the metal detector, ID checked, being escorted all the time with a special badge. UK is, in general, very paranoid when it comes to security. So I was prepared for the worse! Arrived [...]

STEM Ambassador – Part 2 – Launch

Alban Rampon — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:00:00 +0000

Time to start! Shortly after though I heard about the Netherhall School, Cambridge looking for an Ambassador. Quite handy as the school is about two minutes away from my house cycling! and on the way to work on top of this! To launch the event, we had to go more than an hour drive away [...]

STEM Ambassador – Part 1 – Before

Alban Rampon — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 21:47:00 +0000

On the 10th November was launched the Go4SET project for the East of England. The event took place in Swaffham at the EcoTech Centre, the only wind generator you can visit. Seeing emails going round the office, I was attracted to become a STEM Ambassador for Cambridgeshire. ARM is giving back to the local community [...]

Twitter for the Embedded Marketplace – How #embedcast went?

Alban Rampon — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 20:21:00 +0000

It has now been a couple of weeks, but let’s say I have not really had time to get bored… With a bit of travel and friends. The event went well and we had more than 250 registrations. Of course, as always with online events, not everyone showed up. But still, I think we had [...]

Webcast: Twitter in the Embedded Marketplace – ARM, Intel & Synopsys

Alban Rampon — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:43:00 +0000

When I hired last May, I only heard about Twitter and how people felt about it. But shortly after, I was handed the keys of @ARMCommunity. This Twitter handle is used by ARM Connected Community to inform readers about ARM Partners, ARM Powered® products and events where you can meet ARM or Partners. I started [...]

Do bloggers really want comments?

Alban Rampon — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 17:54:00 +0000

Being quite involved in Twitter and other social media these days, I am always looking for ways to improve my efficiency and increase the too infamous Return On Investment… Which I find being “How much sales does it really generates?” The easy way is to look around and see what other people do, assess if [...]

Twitter: How many channels can you really follow?

Alban Rampon — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 22:28:00 +0000

Since I started reading Twitter a few months back, that has been a major worry to me. Part of my role is to find interesting information and promote it, but it is only part of my attributions. And of course the more people you follow, the more bandwith it takes you to read all the [...]

Contact Details – How to please people?

Alban Rampon — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 18:34:00 +0000

Today, I wanted to highlight what I notice over the last ten years. My friends and family had a common complaint: you are always changing phone number. The reality is a bit different as I actually accumulate them and don’t really replace them. So, in order to limit complaints and, hopefully, get more incoming calls [...]

A New Start with ARM?

Alban Rampon — Sun, 31 May 2009 18:02:00 +0000

Ola Visitors, As my work includes working with Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and we just launched a blog at ARM, I decided to start on one myself… Once I set this up, I will talk about what I see at work and probably how I feel about my new city: Cambridge. Cheers, Alban.
