I guess you can read the volume change without using a private API (like, a music player could use that function). If the volume changes, the user pressed the volume button. Makes you wonder if this app also works with the volume on the ip

I heared that when one of the large investment banks (forgot which one) got a new CEO, the first thing he did was stopping all IT outsourcing projects. He did realize a modern bank is, in fact, a software company, and you shouldn't outsourc

Maybe in your world (and mine). But in pourer countries, many people will prefer a surgeon who read the course online, than no surgeon at all. Mlearing and mhealth will be huge in developing countries.

To be ironic, you should have said 250 billion :).

While that sounds great, according to http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=(+microsoft+profit+)+/+... it's actually 51 million/day. So it took them a full week to make the 250 million. Or was yesterday special?

Nice idea, but the redirect step is annoying: to do a redirect I first have to setup hosting myself. I'd rather point my dns at your IP, if I wanted to participate.

I heard a lot of good things about it, but it doesn't have the ability to work on remote files via SSH or (S)FTP. I might try it with an extra program, but it feels like a hassle.

I actually really miss Ultraedit. I think it's the only app I miss since switching to a mac. Things I haven't found in 1 app yet * Everything is keyboard driven. Most mac apps still need a lot of keyboard. * It has SSH/FTP integra

While I don't really have an opinion on wether they should or shouldn't buy Brizzly, I think it's quite interesting that (for some of us) our lives have become so public that it's fairly easy to find the pieces for this blogpost. Just 5 yea

Phonegap provides a thin wrapper around a webview. Titanium changed course with their 1.0 version, and now compiles the Javascript to native code. (they used to do the webview thing).

The 'official' youtube video announcing this is great as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnCHCcveteA One of the best corporate statements I've ever seen :)

Things the mobile web is currently missing: * Native performance.(getting better, still not there). * Offline is way harder (possible, with manifests, but harder). * Monetization is harder: you can't just 'sell' a webapp. * The appstores (c

While I agree (fragmentation on J2ME is hell), that's kind of a weak argument. If things are worse in place A, that's not an argument things could also improve in place B. Certainly if one is a lot newer, and supposedly better.

Why VP8 instead of h264? VP8 will bring you firefox, which does support flash. h264 brings you i(Phone|Pod|Pad) and other hardware. Am I missing something?

Well, it might have been a success from your point, but I liked your service a lot better on the previous level. I haven't had the need to scraping LOT's of pages yet, but one the previous plan, I felt like I could experiment with it for al

Sometimes I really miss Jaiku. There you could add multiple streams to your feed, but when following, could also decide to follow certain streams, or not. So I could follow someone's post, but not their flickr pics or delicious bookmarks. C

Google seems to go all out to promote android, others be dammed: First with their free satnav (making TomTom lose 20% of it's value), now with tethering. While I love tethering, I wonder what carriers will think of it. I can imagine this b

While interesting (and different results than I expected), I would say uptime here is even more important than access times: I'd rather have all my visitors wait 0.04 sec more, than a small percentage not having the page work at all. Anothe

But Google does a lot of trafic shaping as well: If you Wget a video, you see the first bytes stream in really quickly, after which the speed goes down. No need for your ISP to do this as well. I assume Google tweaks it so your buffer doesn

Offcouse that IS a new state. If I call bit.ly's shorten function, I expect a bit.ly link back, not the original URL. I can imagine, for example, not saving the bit.ly part in a db, only the identifier. That breaks (without proper checking

The problem with the non-streaming is that Apple doesn't approve apps anymore that do non-streaming over 3G (for over 5 min/10 MB video's). Will email you if I need it tho! Oh, and then a harder one: Could you take a bunch of images & s

While I love cloud services like these, I always wonder about it for the high-end accounts. With pricing at $3.60/hour of encoded video, it seems building your own render server seems to pay out fairly soon. For http://OneFrameOfFame.com
