Yesterday, Apple introduced new features of iPhone OS 4. Nice. Really? Should
we embrace the platform and, for a lousy $99, become a developer for this
API?
Those people who bothered to go through the application process noticed the
difference in a clause 3.3.1, which in the past was just merely stating
“Applications may only use Documented APIs in the manner prescribed by

Adobe has announced that they made a deal with Google: the new releases of
Chrome Web browser will be packaged with the latest version of Flash Player.

When I say that Flash Player is a great VM and an excellent choice for

more weight. Google states loud and clear that Flash Player is a valid
software that ... (more)

Development of enterprise Flex/Java rich Internet applications benefits from

Call for Papers is now open! Reads: 14,188  By Ellen Rubin The talk at the Cloud Computing Expo this week in Santa Clara was all about enterprise cloud adoption. Is it real? Is it already happening? If so, who’s doing it, which applications are they running and which clouds are being tested? To a large extent, cloud computing is a victim of its own somewhat out-of-control hype cycle. Since so much has been written and discussed about the cloud in 2009, there is now a growing impatience for actual results.

Reads: 9,621  By John Savageau Having gone through a couple of decades worth of technology conferences, a familiar cycle occurs.

Only after the technology has passed a couple of feasibility gates and begun to hit the business cycle do sales and marketing people take over. Cloud is now officially past the engineering phase, well into the sales phase – and the business community is scrambling to understand the implications of a virtualized world.
