Tue, 18:34: First part of the BlackBerry Devcon keynote down. BBX looks interesting, Java deprecated. Part two after PBJ break.
Tue, 19:27: Recent Reads: Starbound. The 2nd book of Joe Haldeman's contact trilogy mixes paranoia and altruism. Earth fails the test. Recommended.
Tue, 19:28: With Meego gone, it looks like BBX is the new home for QT developers. TAT bringing the love in its Cascades framework. #BBDevCon
Tue, 19:34: Amused to find that @dduane's Omnitopia: Dawn is perhaps the best novel about software development I've read. Not just a gameworld story!
Tue, 22:24: BlackBerry Player in BBX is dead. Java developers will need to move to WebWorks or to theC++ NDK. #BBDevCon
Wed, 01:45: Hmm. What does it say for both Britney Spears and Groupon where one is 50% off the other?
