A French Metafilter?

August 11, 2006 9:47 AM

Can you recommend any French-language websites? Specifically, what's the nearest thing to a French Metafilter?

What about a French slashdot/digg? Failing those, what about technology/culture magazines like Wired or Salon? What French-language websites are influential in France, Canada or elsewhere? [I'm aware of the mainstream media's internet presence, not really interested in that here.]

Are any of these of interest?

Est-ce que vous avez vu Madame martin?: Madame Martin est un blog collectif à la aeiou, metafilter, monkeyfilter et d'autres mais en français et tout le monde est invité!

It isn't nearly as busy as Metafilter, but that could also be a good thing.

How about this one?

That may interest you : I go through there sometimes. Light blue coded entries are about technology and/or science. (whatzit, merci de m'avoir présenté Madame martin.)

A blog about blogging, in French.

As whatzit implies in his quote, there's also aeiou.

If computers, gadgets and generally nerdy stuff are among your centers of interest (as is my case), I cannot but recommend www.cafzone.net. There is plenty to like there, and the "Trucs en vrac" section is a pretty good place for advice-seeking posts à la Metafilter.

P.S. Sorry, first post - will learn how to create hyperlinks later, promise.
