TotSP comment issues
Submitted by charlie.collins on Mon, 06/14/2010 - 11:51Because of a plethora of douchebags on the interwebs who like to post spam comments here (even with various forms of captcha on, they just do it manually) I have disabled comments for non authenticated posters.
Also, you can't get a new account right now ;). For technical reasons, with a bit of laziness mixed in, TotSP can't send email at the moment.
Kebernet working on 2D/3D graphics for Android in Practice - woot!
Submitted by charlie.collins on Sat, 06/12/2010 - 10:31Cooper (kebernet), is doing the 2D/3D chapter for Android in Practice for us (because I know nil about that stuff). The other day he sent me this, just in a hey "check this out" sort of way:
Cooper is awesome, that is all.
HP and WebOS
Submitted by kebernet on Wed, 06/02/2010 - 19:16So HP CEO had this quote making the rounds today:
We didn't buy Palm to be in the smartphone business. And I tell people that, but it doesn't seem to resonate well. We bought it for the IP. The WebOS is one of the two ground-up pieces of software that is built as a web operating environment…We have tens of millions of HP small form factor web-connected devices…Now imagine that being a web-connected environment where now you can get a common look and feel and a common set of services laid against that environment. That is a very value proposition.
I completely agree with him. The thing is, in the "PC" market (read: Win32) HP is a dominant player now. They have locked up the the consumer market, and the shift in the whole world is that the consumer market is now the driver in technology, not the "Enterprise."

FroYo is pretty sweet
Submitted by kebernet on Sat, 05/22/2010 - 21:43I am really enjoying it so far. Lots of little changes. Contacts greatly improved. Comes with bundled Twitter app (though I still prefer Twicca) the Twitter app includes a sync source so you can merge contacts and get popup on heads. The JIT and V8 make everything feel just a little bit snappier. The new Market app is 1000% improved with update subscriptions and a bloody "Update All" button. Still need some improved tools on the developer side.
Oh, and I can watch TheDailyShow.com on my phone. SUCK IT!
