Getting Started with Swift, For NON-Apple Devs

Getting Started with Swift, For NON-Apple Devs

By Adron Hall on June 26, 2014

This past weekend I attempted to get started with Swift coding. Since I have not been an Apple Developer for a while, it wasn’t immediately obvious how to get started. But once I fumbled around a few minutes I realized I needed a developer account to get the latest XCode. Jeez, it really shows how […]

Where is the Shazam for Enterprise Mobile Apps?

Where is the Shazam for Enterprise Mobile Apps?

By Quinton Wall on March 27, 2014

Music is a big part of my life. I own too many guitars for my own good, and love discovering new music. One of my favorite apps for discovery is Shazam. With so much focus on how to build amazing mobile apps it’s really hard to go past Shazam. As we see the demand for […]

To App or Not To App?

To App or Not To App?

By Brian Denten on October 28, 2013

Building a dedicated mobile app for a business is all the rage right now, and often with good reason. As Apple’s App Store, Android’s Play Store, and Microsoft’s Windows Market continue to see explosive growth after a half decade of revolutionizing digital development and distribution, it can be very tempting to use the platforms to […]

Siri, You Don’t Say

By Guest Authors on December 17, 2012

Google slated Siri. Apple’s Siri and I have never gotten along. I don’t need a personal assistant with a sense of humor. I need a computer assistant that gives me answers. Siri gives enough backlash that it just isn’t fun to use…or usually does it answer my questions. It’s easy to poke at a new […]

Surface & iPad Collision Course

Surface & iPad Collision Course

By Adron Hall on November 19, 2012

Ok, I’d been looking around for a Surface I could try out. Even though I have my doubts about Windows 8 and especially RT I also am excited about a lot of the features that these operating system(s) have. But amid the parts that I hate and parts I hate, there is the simple fact […]

The Best Government Money Can Buy

The Best Government Money Can Buy

By Guest Authors on November 1, 2012

I work in Asia where government influence (“bribes”) is exceedingly common. Granted, it is officially illegal, but as a practical matter it is essential. I remember traveling into Cambodia via rail. At the border crossing there is an immigration office where you apply for and get a visa to enter. The room was packed with […]

Apple iOS / OS-X vs. Windows 8 / RT == OS Goulash & Predictions

Apple iOS / OS-X vs. Windows 8 / RT == OS Goulash & Predictions

By Adron Hall on October 24, 2012

All These Thoughts Derived at Seattle Coffee Works in Downtown Seattle, a good place to enjoy the use of an iPad or Windows RT Tablet. Ok, I’ll admit it, I have a soft spot in my heart for Windows 8. At least in the tablet form. I honestly prefer it over the iPad model of […]

Lowering Mobile Development Barriers to Entry

Lowering Mobile Development Barriers to Entry

By Ben Kepes on October 22, 2012

Icenium is today launching what would appear to be a very compelling proposition – an environment that enables cross platform mobile development that decouples development from a particular development environment, full suite of developer products and SDK. Icenium decouples the compilers from the platform and makes the SDKs available in

Apple iPhone 5 – Meh

Apple iPhone 5 – Meh

By Dave Michels on October 1, 2012

The iPhone 5 is breaking all iPhone sales records, another hit on their hands. Or not? I think it’s the beginning on long slide south for Apple. Yes, it is going to sell well. Very well. So why is Apple going to decline? Two very simple irrefutable reasons: What Goes Up Must Come Down, and […]

Has Apple Peaked?

Has Apple Peaked?

By Zoli Erdos on September 25, 2012

You probably think I am out of my mind – well … hm… no comment.  But yes I agree it’s close to madness  to discuss Apple’s decline right on the heels of a record-breaking iPhone 5 launch and a stock price that despite some correction is still a rocketship.  But bear with me for a […]

Hybrid mobile apps will conquer the mobile enterprise

Hybrid mobile apps will conquer the mobile enterprise

By Martijn Linssen on June 4, 2012

[Image by HLundgaard] There is a difference about how we thinks things will evolve, and how they do. I’ve been wondering about Mobile and app stores for a while – they seem contradictionairy. Mobile has taken such a great flight because of lowered cost and increased availability of Internet for mobile, the old-fashioned telephone has turned […]

There’s a World Outside the US–Podio Delivers

By Ben Kepes on February 2, 2012

Living  on the other side of the world from the bay area, it’s sometimes  little frustrating just how inward looking Silicon Valley can be. Sometimes it feels like some technology vendors discount the 5 billion or so people who don’t live in that tiny West Coast sliver. Apart from being an arrogant attitude it’s also […]

Why I Think Office 365 Is Not (Yet) Ready

Why I Think Office 365 Is Not (Yet) Ready

By Krishnan Subramanian on January 12, 2012

Earlier this week I had a Tweetbate with few folks who have a soft corner for Microsoft products on whether Office 365 (previous CloudAve coverage), Microsoft’s cloud based productivity suite, is a credible player in the modern cloud business applications space. When I say modern cloud business applications, I expect them to have, at least, […]
