As a public service, I have been placing these three stickers on various public basketball hoops around the neighborhood. Yes, really. This is the kind of thing I do for fun.

"I got a Basketball Jones"
"You're Gonna Miss 100% of the Shots You Don't Take"
"A Basketball Made of Love"

Connaissez-vous la montre sous #licencelibre ? C'est le projet fou d'OpenMovement.

Un projet incroyable qui a nécessité 6000 heures de travail bénévole d'horlogers et d'amateurs.

Si je vous en parle, c'est que ce projet à besoin de soutien pour atteindre une nouvelle étape et organise un financement participatif.
