Especially this one from Adobe with Mike Downey (who I met a few years ago to talk about mobile stuff on FlashLite) demonstrating Adobe Apollo looks absolutley great. It has things that Lazlo simply doesn’t (pricetags apart). I’m very excited to think of the apps I could build with this. It’s not far removed from what I have been able to build with Zinc. But this is different. Apollo integrates very nicely on technology we already have at our disposal as web-active people/developers. It works like AJAX and Flash and Flex – and possibly Director. It ‘loves’ data. And boy, have I got a shedload of that
Computer science icon Jim Gray mysteriously disappeared after a solo trip with his sail boat outside San Francisco Bay. The coast guard has been searching for 4 days but has not been able to locate anything, not even debris. On Thursday 3 private planes searched through the coastal areas and they also returned unsuccessful.
Amazon has stepped in to help the helpers. They have done a fresh satellite sweep of the area and stored the images on their S3 storage service.
Then they’ve created a task on their Mechanical Turk service to allow volunteers to scan the images to look for the boat.
I see that Wordpress.com blogs now have more ‘code’ options to go with the ability to embed YouTube and Google videos. They have added SplashCast and DailyMotion. (I’ve only heard of one of those, and then only recently)
I’m eager to find out what the process is for getting on that list, as I have some podcast widgets on the horizon
This is the personal blog of the 'createc' known as Kosso. Most of the thoughts here are his and not those of his employer.
However, being the founder of his own company means he can say what the hell he likes.
