You can configure Kannel (an open source SMS gateway) for use with your GSM modem/phone. However, as others have pointed out, this does not scale. On top of the SMS gateway you'd also need to rent a number or lease a short code in order to

While the article makes some interesting points about the perceived flaws of SOA, I'm not sure that I agree that they are specific to SOA itself. Perhaps some of them only apply depending on the context of the situation. His first point wi

Scott Berkun's a great public speaker. Has anyone read his new book "Myths of Innovation"? I'd be interested to see what you guys think of it before buying it myself.

Agreed. In terms of Computer Science, I believe that every student should at least be given a mandatory introduction on Human Computer Interaction. I've come across many stellar engineers who are passionate about producing beautiful code, b

I completely agree - personally, I find brainstorming ideas by myself and then bouncing off of other people in a group later on seems to be the most effective. Question for you guys: What is your ideal environment for brainstorming ideas a

I've found that the most effective way to come up with ideas is to spend some time alone writing down ideas, usually "aha!" moments that occur while I am doing something completely unrelated. Usually the idea scratches a personal itch I hav

So essentially what you're saying is that any assets that the company makes cannot be transferred to me until I am an American citizen? I wonder what the consequences would be if I am an H1-B holder and revenues from moonlighting grew to a
