iapp review – Arcade Bowl from Skyworks
This is a first for me, I gotta admit. Some one actually wanted me to review their iPhone app! How cool is that!!
SkyWorks Arcade Bowl (iTunes Link), is pretty fun, I must admit!!!
I really wish the iTunes store allowed trial ware. I might not have bought this cool game without knowing it was cool up [...]
You’re authentic voice, it’s important
Chris brogan has a good post, with his thoughts captured on video
I agree completely! I hate self censorship for the sake of simply not offending the thin skinned, Sure I don’t think it’s cool to curse like a drunken sailor for particular reason, but I’m not opposed to the “colorful metaphor” when it applies.
At 360|Flex [...]
Let’s Ignite Denver better than before!
Ignite Denver isn’t until March, but that’s no reason to 1. save the date and register (only 75 spots available) and 2. submit a topic. You know you want to, you know you want to share your intimate knowledge of how birds fly, or how to do a proper cat’s cradle, or even your knowledge of why it is that Chihuahuas are so popular.
Do something that matters
I’m not by any means a Tm O’Reilly fan boy, half his posts I don’t agree with, but when I do, I seem to really agree. This is one of those.
My only gripe is that it’s easy for people with funds, to talk about doing things for reasons other than money, unfortunately, “changing the world” isn’t a check the mortgage company can cash, so it’s not so cut ant dry. So point 1 only does so much for me, although I do agree with Kathy, that if you focus too much on the competition, and not enough on your customers, you’ve already lost.
Ignite Denver Comes back!
It’s Ignite Denver time again!
We’re back in March, after too long a hiatus! This time, we’re having fun at the Forest Room 5!
If you’d like to present, take a look at the user voice site we set up. Submit a topic, the people vote! Just remember, 5 minutes 20 slides, 15 seconds a slide.
Make sure [...]
How to ruin a brand and influence people
On a smaller scale but equally disastrous, Adobe is extending their brand confusion to their community. A little history: Adobe created Flex Camps a while back, as one day events for Flex developers to come together to learn and network. Topics ranged from beginner to advanced, and were generally well received. There have been Flex Camps all over the world.
At MAX adobe decided that the community was confused about Flash, Flex, the platform and everything.
I think the confusion is Adobe’s. No one I’ve met is confused about what Flex is or what Flash is.
I need help with the 360|Flex schedule
I’ve loaded all the session titles and descriptions into User Voice (They’re awesome!). Go and take a look, do it now or over the weekend, but take a look. There’s 124 submissions, and early next week Tom and I are going to select the schedule.
It happens to the best of us from time to time
First: I suck at time zones. Plain out suck at them.
Second: I sometimes have trouble with plane flights, mostly keeping track of when they leave, if I’m in a different time zone (see above).
So,Tom and I were at Macworld last week. We were pounding the pavement talking to iPhone developers and development companies, about 360|iDev.
Apps with silly physical gestures, STOP IT!
Ok it’s getting silly now. Yes the iPhone can be shaken to select a restaurant, etc, etc. But does that mean every damn app some one writes, needs to support being shaken, blown into, etc?
First it was stupid wag my phone at yours to trade contacts, now it’s stupid tones to transmit a contact?
keep looking »
