I recently made a very small jquery mobile web app. It still feels like alpha software, I was on an extremely tight deadline so I persevered with it, the end result worked out ok. I would be interested in other javascript framework recommen

Many Australian universities have a 'Bachelor of Information Technology' instead of of a 'Bachelor of Computer Science'. The one I did was a 3 year degree, it still did most of the CS subjects that I've seen elsewhere, though it didn't have

The reason we still use these old icons is because every single icon requires people to think about and learn what it represents. The only icons that don't require the user to think are ones they see all the time. If you've never seen an ic

It's good that Nevada is facilitating this, I'm expecting that industry lobby groups that will be affected by this (truck drivers, taxis, car companies without this technology, insurance companies perhaps) will throw everything they have at

When I was using it, I had the idea of creating NFC tag/ QR code stickers and get gyms to put them on each machine/area. Then you could create an API for apps like Fitocracy to link in with that lets them read what each machine is, and the

I liked the menu button because it meant that you always knew where to go to get menu options. On iOS many apps have different symbols and locations for settings and as a daily Android user I've found it annoying searching for them. On ICS

Not sure if it's part of these changes but I'm glad that everyone you've ever emailed no longer gets added to your contacts list. That was a pain whenever I synced with my Android phone, all of a sudden my phonebook was full of useless emai
