Motorola Takes Us a Step Closer to Personal Computing Nirvana–and it’s Not Even a Computer

Motorola Takes Us a Step Closer to Personal Computing Nirvana–and it’s Not Even a Computer

By Zoli Erdos on January 8, 2011

It took five years, but the personal computing nirvana vision I first heard from Zoho CEO Sridhar Vembu is becoming reality. The concept that I discussed in The Cell-Phone Aware PC May Be a PC-less PC, and other posts is simple.  Instead of a plethora of situational devices with redundant computing capacity, carry around just […]

Google To Crowdsource Web Application Security

Google To Crowdsource Web Application Security

By Krishnan Subramanian on November 1, 2010

Google is now trying crowdsource the security researchers from around the world (well, almost as the list doesn’t include countries in the banned list of US government) to find vulnerabilities in the web properties under Google. This is not something new and many providers use this approach to find vulnerabilities in their web applications and […]

A Conference is About Community

By Guest Authors on April 28, 2009

I’ve been watching with interest a great series of posts over on Pamela Dingle’s blog. It all began when Pamela tried to get a blogger pass for the RSA conference. What really caught my eye, though, was James McGovern’s response – specifically, “Achieving the goal of educating attendees is never the goal of those who […]

3 Free Tix to the Glue Conference

3 Free Tix to the Glue Conference

By Zoli Erdos on April 27, 2009

How timely of Rick  Burnes to post his Trade Show Trouble cartoon.  It expresses my feelings about large trade shows and conferences – am I suffering from acute conferencitis?   Yes, large shows are half-dead nowadays – but some conferences are worth attending even in bad times. The Glue Conference on May 12-13th in Denver may […]

A Quick Intro to GlueCon

A Quick Intro to GlueCon

By Guest Authors on March 23, 2009

When Zoli Erdos first asked me if I’d be willing to write some guest posts on CloudAve around the topic of Glue Conference, I was actually a bit hesitant. After all, Zoli’s done such a great job of explaining why he likes the conferences I run, and what Gluecon is about, that I wasn’t sure […]

Data Standards for Web Applications

Data Standards for Web Applications

By Guest Authors on March 3, 2009

While many despise WMA, DOC, MP3 and other proprietary formats the discussions about data formats used by web applications have been surprisingly silent. It is true that this is mainly because a lot of web applications offer XML export or offer an API for exporting data to other services. But as data formats in the […]

By Zoli Erdos on December 31, 2008

2008 REDUX Another piece in the 2008 Redux series, originally posted in March 2008.

The Anti-Beta Revolution. Or is it a Counter-Revolution?

By Zoli Erdos on November 22, 2008

Gizmodo has just issued  A Call for Revolution Against Beta Culture – great article, and boy, do I love the illustration!. I’m tired of this beta culture that has spread like metastatic cancer in the last few years, starting with software from Google and others and ending up in almost every gadget and computer system […]

By Zoli Erdos on November 14, 2008

How old is your work computer? – asks the Wall Street Journal. Mine is a year-and-a half old.  The dual-core former screamer (obviously not the one the the pic to the right) has become an average slow machine now that quad-core is the standard, but I could not care less.   I don’t need a faster, […]

Netbook or Notebook? It’s Not Only About Size.

By Zoli Erdos on October 31, 2008

Hardly a day goes by without another new Netbook announcement, at lower and lower prices.  The first baby eee PC by ASUS was toy-like ( I returned it after a day), but the current crop are quite usable mobile computing devices.  These new Netbooks are flying off the shelf, so much so that sometimes you […]
