Unless you've been in a cave for the last few months, you'll know that Apple's iPhone Platform is one of the most exciting Mobile Platforms for the last few years, not only for consumers but now for business.
Today on http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/ Apple decided to drop the Non Disclosure Agreement for the Official iPhone SDK for all registered developers.On the website Apple stated... "We put the NDA in place because the iPhone
Trutap, a leading UK mobile startup which made the TechCrunch 40 list in 2007, is letting go almost 80% of its 30 staff after failing to hit its window for a second round of funding. A skeleton staff will keep the social apps Java application for mobiles available prior to a sale or new investment, only a month after its re-launch. The startup was orphaned after its first investor Tudor Ventures, a hedge fund hit hard by the economis crisis, put in a rumoured $6m but could not come back for a se
This is the fifth of a six part series of posts on the Agile SOA life cycle. Here we will at look at IT and SOA Governance. With the introduction of agile, spiral, and scrum development methodologies, the traditional waterfall development approach of testing a near-finished app at the end of many Agile development cycles won't be agile at all, as the elements of the application are constantly changing. Traditional models of IT governance will also not work. To aggravate testing, the service-or
I've always been a bit puzzled about how FriendFeed does RSS, but I've never (until now) taken the time to find the source of the puzzlement. I've always just fumbled my way around, sort of approximating what I wanted, and when I couldn't get it, falling back to the API. But now I've hit a wall, and taken the time to understand the nature of the wall. Let me explain.
Consider this screen (click on it to see the detail):

You can now put linux onto your shiny iPhone. Linux Kernel 2.6 has been ported across and it will work on the 1st / 2nd Generation iPhone / Touch devices.It is still does not have many drivers but it seems that the Frame buffer driver, Serial Driver driver, Serial over USB and a few others are now working. Right now at this early stage wireless networking also does not work but it is a work in progress. Once installed you can boot into the iPhone OS or the Linux OS using a
I mentioned to my nephew Joel Weinberger, a CS grad student at UC Berkeley, that I wished the Javascript “split” method took multiple delimiters, and within minutes, he wrote one for me. If you know what I’m talking about, you can click here to get a zip file with the code (including a function as well as a method) and a sample. If you don’t …

This was my second time at the Swedish conference Øredev and, whaoo, it has grown in both size and content. As with many of the top tier conferences you meet the regular suspects, but at Øredev you will also meet new faces and new interesting companies. There were several interesting companies there presenting their technologies, solutions, and services, such as JavaBlaokBelt and JayWay.
We also met with former colleagues and friends from Oracle, and here is a classical picture from an encou

A few people have asked me privately if I am upset that Alex is joining Google. The short answer is, absolutely not. Alex has been hacking on WebKit and Gears for a while now, and when we heard about Chrome, we thought it was a great way to make the open web better. I’m thankful that a company like Google ded
According to Arianna Huffington, editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post, “Were it not for the Internet, Barack Obama would not be president.”
In his presidential campaign, United States President-elect Barack Obama made use of social-networking in a way that was unheard of. As a result of this non-traditional approach, his team managed to shatter all previous fundraising [...]
For a proposal I’m drafting, I wrote: “It’s important to recognize that successful innovations do not create needs—they satisfy unmet needs. The trick is figuring out what needs are going unmet.”

I was going through my email today and found a recent email from Matt Rechenburg of OpenQRM who just released OpenQRM version 4.2. In the latest addition OpenQRM has support for provisioning server images in the cloud.

A few nights ago I watched a very interesting piece on the Discovery Channel about ant colonies called ‘Ant Wars’. (Give me a few more lines and you’ll understand why this has anything to do with IT, enterprises or Mashups). I was awe-struck with the way that an ant colony behaves as one unified being rather than millions of individuals - some ants perform one function, which other ants use to their advantage so as to be able to perform their function more easily, and so on, and so on.

Carl Olofson performs research and analysis for IDC’s Information Management and Data Integration Software service within the Application Development and Deployment research group.

The “season to be jolly” is coming up fast, which given the world news might be more of a challenge this year. Therefore I quote the following, found accidentally while researching for a blog post the other day, and attributed to the late Spike Milligan:

FORTRAN was a programming language for crunching numbers. It provided limited textual support, primarily for the labeling of output. It did this with Hollerith constants. Hollerith constants were named for Herman Hollerith, who adapted the punched card for data processing. To make a Hollerith constant, enter the number of characters, then the letter H, and then the characters. 13HHELLO, WORLD! ALGOL 60 had better textual support, adding a structure called a string which was a s

Mr. Zucker's relationship with Mr. Weinstein is also the subject of commentary in the court papers. At a meeting in January 2007 between the two, Mr. Weinstein told Mr. Zucker: "You can only have in your life five true friends, and I consider you one of my five friends. And I'm telling you, I will not embarrass you."
When the Weinstein Company filed its reply to the lawsuit last month, it claimed that Mr. Weinstein told Mr. Zucker that a person "has about 15 friends in the business world" and t
