Philippe with his (almost) 3 year old twins, Evan and Sophie

In 1997 I was working in the City of London in an investment bank when one day the IT staff set up a fast Internet connection on my computer. It changed my life. I spent the whole day surfing the early web, and from that day I realized that I wanted to be involved with it somehow in my professional life.

It took 2 years to transition to working as a web developer. After moving to Palo Alto (California), I started creating basic sites for charities (like Re-Cycle). After working for an Internet start up (bivio, improbably still alive today), I set up no diamonds web services.

In 2003 I started reading blogs regularly, and in 2005 decided I had to start writing my own blog, mainly to write about essential Internet resources for consultants and small business straight from Silicon Valley.
