Orange presented this week its new year-end, some of which had already been disclosed or announced during his recent show Hello.
The French operator continues to innovate - or at least to develop new services and products - in all directions, both in terms of social web that in terms of connected objects. I also want to drag a personal note: I find that the proximity of a giant like Orange with French digital ecosystem (and international) and its approach to digital communities (blogs, "influencers", digital media) are fruit of a remarkable work of its teams, particularly in their ability to create and maintain quality relationships.
Tuesday's meeting came a little late, unfortunately, but you still have four good days to enjoy it if you are a client pro Orange Business: Orange offers you a chance to win a gift a day until December 25 through the operation Advent calendar (you certainly know via the dressing on Juicer since Friday night). How to participate? Appointment until Christmas on the pro shop and enter the instant win game. You'll know immediately if you have won the big prize at stake every day. Everybody wins: if ou have not won's Day gift? Rest assured, a surprise awaits you.
I do not know if you've had the opportunity to spend an Orange shop recently (me, though, to test their new smartphone screen repair service without appointment), but it is a little Frequently Asked connected objects. And that's a good way to get acquainted easily and on a single place with major deals currently available on the market. Whether you are interested in a fitness bracelet, connected shows (360 Moto or LG G Watch for example), a sensor to maintain your green plants, an object locator or a mini-drone Parrot, you will certainly find your happiness in an Orange shop or on the website in the dedicated section . Orange has given us such a test Parrot Jump Sumo , funny hybrid creature between a wheelchair and a hopping robot drone, with whom I spent a bit of time to have fun this weekend. The vehicle's grip is immediate, and incredibly easy, and it's good fun guaranteed bars, especially in terms of immersion control with live video back on your smartphone or tablet screen . Much easier to understand than piloting a flying drone, the Jump Sumo may represent an intermediate step that will help to identify and move in FPV (First Person View) safe for others.
Also new is happening in the shops these days: Homepoint . Homepoint is a kind of box the size of two paperback books which provides access to photos, videos, music and other documents on smartphones, tablets and PCs. Accompanied by a dedicated application Homepoint offers the possibility to consult USB key content directly, memory card or hard drive connected to it, which becomes a household sharing basis for family use (or possibly small business). Homepoint can also stream music from a smartphone on a hi-fi system, easily create additional secure Wi-Fi network for your guests and recharge equipment (USB or induction). A sort of Swiss Army Knife digital home. Homepoint is available on the Orange website to 79.99 euros . I propose a test soon.
As we know, Facebook and others are not the best places to share content between members of the same family for several raions (fear related to confidentiality, children who do not wish to have their parents as friends, etc.) . But there really is a demand for this type of use, and some entrepreneurs like ViaFamilia (now disabled) or Hellotipi had already gotten it several years ago (probably too soon ...). Orange has partnered with Family & Co to create the Spring 2014 Family Place , a new version has just been updated.
Family Place can share a calendar between family members, manage up to three families at the same time (which can also be extended to colleagues, friends, neighbors), share location, pictures, messaging, directory or a family shopping lists, etc. Available as mobile apps for iOS, Android and Windows Phone, Family Place is free, but a premium version is available to customers Orange Open and their families. The Premium version offers additional 10GB of storage capacity, the HD for sharing photos and videos, andHome function to find out who went home.
