| The Sophisticated French Café Garden Setup |  | Summer is here already, and all the sunshine and wonderfully green gardens are constantly inviting us outside for a little stroll. However, taking advantage of the good weather can mean a lot more than simply going for a walk in the park. If you're lucky enough to have a garden, a patio, or just a little spare corner by the window in your kitchen which has been in bad need of some redecorating for a while now, here is a thought: why n ...

| Apple Bails Out of Apple Expo 2008 in Paris |  | Apple is well known for its rebel attitude towards expos and conventions, sometimes having pulled itself out from some important ones (like NAB), and surprising industry players. The most recent such move from the Cuperino-based Mac maker concerns a certain Apple Exp ... [read more >>] | | 04 June 2008, 06:10GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| Slimming Secrets of the French |  | As far as dieting goes, the French are probably one of the biggest lifestyle paradoxes around: they drink red wine regularly, have a high-fat diet and yet they have the lowest heart-attack rate in Europe and only 7% of the population is obese, compared to a staggering 23% in Britain, for example. The obvious question is, then, how do they do it? Studies show that it's all down to eating small amounts of food at regular inter ... [read more >>] | | 02 June 2008, 06:20GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| Miss Bimbo Promotes Breast Enhancements to Little Girls |  | Does anyone in the audience want to become the "perfect bimbo"? Because the Internet offers anyone that chance. And don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against bimbos. And I don't have anything against a bimbo simulator MMO. But marketing this ga ...

| Women Are Turning into Sexual Predators |  | Biological rules say the male is the active sex in humans. They look for fertilizing as many females as possible for the maximum biological effectiveness, being real sexual predators, always ready for some hanky-panky, while women look for quality and a partner for a monogamous relationship, who is able to deliver and care for the children.
But all these are blown up in modern society. A comprehensive survey carried out by th ... [read more >>] | | 19 March 2008, 14:06GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| Talking About Sex and Drugs Is Safer |  | Yesterday, I was telling you all about how yet another mock-scandal hit this year's list of Oscar winners, this time involving French actress Marion Cotillard. It all started a few days ago, when a French magazine published a one year old interview in which Cotillard was allegedly implying that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were not carried by terrorists, but staged by the American government itself. And while such an idea may ... [read more >>] | | 04 March 2008, 06:47GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| Facebook Had 1,500 Spanish ‘Slaves’ Doing Its Job |  | Why bother with working on some feature that will just set your other work back, when you can have others do the work for you? That must have been the company policy regarding the Spanish version of the page, for which Facebook gave its users total freedom to translate. That can’t be right somehow, but I just can’t put my finger on it.
Perhaps I’m thinking about exploiting somebody’s love for your product and make it benefit y ... [read more >>] | | 08 February 2008, 06:21GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| French PMP to Kick Zune's A*s? |  | Here is why the French do it better! There is no doubt Zune 2 is a worthy iPod rival, but hey, there are not many to know that the Zune itself has found its rival on the market, namely the cool French version known as the Artamys PMP.
Artamys reveals a neat simple design line, as well as some cool abstract features to make some turn their heads. But, even if it wants to compete with the mighty Zune, the Artamyss R-RM 850 PMP h ... [read more >>] | | 14 November 2007, 04:33GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| “Les French” Hoping to Shut Spammers Down |  | France is considered to be the country with the most malware in Europe and it ranks 10th in the global spam charts, based on recent studies. This is why one could say that the French really have a problem with cyber-security. But recently, they have decided to (at least) fight off spam – their government funded a tool that is going to help shut spammers down.
So, what is it and how does it work? Well, it’s a toolbar that you c ... [read more >>] | | 08 October 2007, 05:42GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |

Now French lovebirds have got a solution: a company that offers the perfect professional bogus alibi to be brought face to face with their official partners.

| French Fries... French Kissing... French Phishing?! |  | A lot of personal data of many people, mostly computer users from the United States, reside on a French server, as NetworkWorld informs. There is nothing bizarre about this, unless you treat if from a "paranoid security geek" perspective.
So, how much info is there? Well, the personal details of thousands. How did it get there? The answer is that people gave it away willingly (they just offered it for freebies) So w ... [read more >>] | | 04 September 2007, 03:43GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |

| French Parliament Will Switch from Microsoft to Ubuntu |  | In November last year, the French parliament announced that starting with June 2007, they will use Linux desktops and servers. Recently, they announced the name of the Linux distribution which will be used, and that is, ladies and gentlemen, Ubuntu Linux.
