      So I'll probably run Google Chrome OS in VirtualBox on Mac OS X.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      How much memory will be required? I wonder…
  • applications can be written using your favorite web technologies
  • these apps will run
  • on any standards-based browser
  • largest user base
  • designed to power computers ranging from small netbooks to full-size desktop systems
  • Google Chrome OS and Android overlap
  •  
    Simple architecture: * WebKit-based Google Chrome * a new windowing system * Linux kernel. Open source, large developer base, large user base. Smart!

    Applications that are designed for Google Chrome OS should run equally well in any standards based browser. If I do need to run Google Chrome OS on Mac OS X, I'll probably do so in VirtualBox.
  •  
    Thinking about laptops that are gathering dust … the OS will run on x86 or ARM. I wonder about other requirements: * memory * display resolution * etc..

    A new project, a natural extension of Google Chrome - the Google Chrome Operating System … to re-think what operating systems should be.

Welcome to the next tech revolution: Liquid computing | InfoWorld - 7 views

  • In a nutshell, what Handoff -- and liquid computing in general -- portends is a world where both data and activities move around as needed. The device isn't the center of the universe, as it has been since the first computer.
  • The journey to liquid computing
  • everal years ago, Google showed us a different way: the cloud as the new center. With Google Docs (now called Drive), you created your documents on its browser-accessible servers and worked on them there, usually through a browser but also via native apps on iOS and Android. You didn't have to sync your data, because it was accessible from pretty much any device. Unfortunately, Google's Web-based apps don't work that well versus what you can do on a smartphone, tablet, or PC native app, so most of us still start with the device and use the cloud as mostly a convenient file share.

  • Apple's iCloud Documents took the same idea but tied it to specific apps, moving us away from the notion of a common file pool to a common activity pool: text documents or spreadsheets or photos.
  • Apple's initial iCloud Documents approach was too tied to its apps, though, so it hasn't really expanded beyond Apple's own applications. (Apple is moving to correct that mistake in iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite.)

    "I was typing an email on my iPad, and I got distracted. Some time later, I set the iPad down on my desk, and an icon on my Mac appeared. I clicked it, and in seconds the Mail app was running with that partially entered email in front of me. That's the Handoff feature in action, part of the iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite updates that will ship this fall. It's a sign of a change in computing that Google and Microsoft are also pursuing, not just Apple. Liquid Computing Welcome to the next tech revolution: Liquid computing Liquid computing: The next wave of the mobile experience Apple Watch: The Internet of things' new frontier iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are both in beta, so I can't really talk about the details of Handoff yet. But I can say it works just as Apple showed off at its recent WWDC conference's public keynote. Handoff is the first big step into a future where the notion of a device will go through a radical transformation. [ Mobile and PC management: The tough but unstoppable union. | Subscribe to InfoWorld's Consumerization of IT newsletter today. ] At first blush, what Apple is doing is blurring the lines between mobile and desktop devices. That's true, but it's only part of the actual transformation under way. There's no real name for this transformation yet, so I'm calling it liquid computing until someone else comes up with a better name. In a nutshell, what Handoff -- and liquid computing in general -- portends is a world where both data and activities move around as needed. The device isn't the center of the universe, as it has been since the first computer. Think back to the early PC era, when people first started getting PCs at home, not just at work. Remember the effort we all spent in making sure we copied our files to a disk for use at home? We had to bring our data with us or else use a network connection to a file share. That model has persisted to this day, which is why the biggest loss of corporate data remains the lost or stolen thumb drive or

15 Tools to Help You Develop Faster Web Pages | Mind Tree - 0 views

  •  
    Response times, availability, and stability are vital factors to bear in mind when creating and maintaining a web application. If you're concerned about your web pages' speed or want to make sure you're in tip-top shape before starting or launching a project, here's a few useful, free tools to help you create and sustain high-performance web applications. I've tried to include a wide variety of tools that are easy to use, and have tried to keep them as OS and technology-independent as possible so that everyone can find a tool or two.

Mobile Opportunity: A quick history of software platforms: How we got here, and where ... - 0 views

  • where we're going
  • software with APIs that third party developers can write apps on top of
  • grow a tech business more quickly if you get third party developers
  • ...38 more annotations...
  • lessons about where the industry might go
  • Fair warning: this is a long post.
  • In 1969, the Justice Department, ADR, and several others filed antitrust suits
  • IBM agreed to stop bundling free software
  • disaggregation is a natural outcome
  • multiple companies can move faster
  • backlog of potential creativity
  • The OS is dissolving into a soup of resources distributed across both the network and the local device, with the application in the middle calling on both
  • what it lacks in beauty it more than makes up for in rate of change and versatility
  • hybrids of local and network resources
  • gradual evolution of a super-OS that includes both the network and the device
  • we don't have a name for this new thing
  • trouble talking about it
  • I'm calling it the "metaplatform"
  • Although the metaplatform isn't necessarily elegant
  • compatibility
  • technological advances always lead to value chain fragmentation
  • what happens if that company goes out of business or just decides to stop maintaining the product?
  • If you've incorporated external web services into your site, the site will break if any of those services stops working
  • We don't have any systematic ways to deal with problems like these
  • a business opportunity for the next crop of software entrepreneurs
  • What the metaplatform means
  • Much of the discussion in this post is pretty theoretical
  • practical implications
  • iPhone today gives (in my opinion) the best overall mobile browsing and app discovery experience
  • APIs that will enable other developers to extend
  • implementation is often off-target
  • trying to make their APIs into the business equivalent of an operating system
  • private ecosystem
  • opening the application outward
  • mixed and matched with other functionality in the metaplatform
  • export data isn’t enough... what springs to mind is open source
  • Lots to think about
  • Clayton Christensen
  • The most effective mobile application are
  • a framework to predict where most profits will be made
  • HTML5
  • changes that are brewing in the mobile industry

Déixanos agrupar os elementos en coleccións e compartilos en redes sociais, permitíndonos tamén traballar de xeito colaborativo. En versións anteriores permitía crear árbores cos diferentes elementos pero recentemente mudou a interfaz de xeito que agora é máis intuitiva para o seu uso dende dispositivos móbiles, pero non deixa organizar as relacións entre nodos como árbore conceptual.

Remember Everything. | Evernote Corporation - 1 views

    Some brief notes from a Mac OS X perspective: http://www.wuala.com/grahamperrin/public/2009/04/11/evernote-fsc-001.png for an fseventer view of file system changes when Evernote Web Clipper in Safari produces a PDF, launches the main and helper applications, and syncs. No evidence there of Sync Services, which may be surprising given the otherwise fine use of available technologies.

    (Unlike Diigo) Evernote does not highlight web content, and is not oriented to group work or sharing.

  • qu'est qui fait un site laid (ou ringard) ? Cette question est bien sûr en relation avec le désormais tristement célèbre site web de Ségolène Royal desirsdavenir. com. 
  • On avait ce genre de site dans les années 1990, voici une capture d'écran du site de la maison blanche en 1995 (qui était tout de même, je vous rassure, super-ringard même à cette époque).
  • Quand on communique on utilise des codes, on peut jouer avec et même les détourner (c’est exprès mal dessiné, mais nous savons bien que je sais dessiner en vrai), et il existe toujours un contrat de lecture avec les internautes
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • le fait de tout centrer nous ramène à des codes religieux ou très solennels nous donnant à penser que Ségolène se prend pour un messie
  • Et là, c'est impardonnable aux yeux des internautes
  • il s'agit du site de quelqu'un prétendant à la plus haute marche de nos institutions
  • Nous pourrions comparer ce paysage à celui de l’affiche de campagne de François Mitterrand en 1981.
  • kitsch, une accumulation de signes sans aucune significations
  • Ce site montre à ses lecteurs que l'équipe de désir d'avenirs ne possède aucune culture concernant le Web, ils sont incultes dans ce domaine et n’ont aucun humour (ce qui peut parfois sauver d'un très mauvais design). 
  • en opposition avec cette idée de démocratie participative
  • Ségolène Royal connaît parfaitement l'importance du choix des mots dans un discours, et bien pour les images c'est exactement la même chose
  • ce site est totalement raté du point de vue formel
  • on arrive à du non-design ou du design par défaut
  • On ne demande surtout pas à Ségolène Royal d’être à la pointe du design Web, mais de savoir s’entourer. Avec ce site, elle prouve le contraire et c’est terrible pour son image (surtout sur les plus jeunes).
  • aucuns crédits concernant le logiciel (Joomla), les auteurs, les designers, graphistes, intégrateurs, développeurs... ayant créé ce site, la seule mention :  Copyright © 2009 - Désirs d'avenir 
  • on se croirait chez l’Oréal ou chez Nike, ou l’on cache volontairement les auteurs... pourquoi ne pas mettre ce site sous Creative Commons et mettre la liste des contributeurs ? cela serait plus logique avec l’idée que je me fais de la démocratie participative.
  • une pensée pour les militants, qui je pense doivent être profondément attristés (et furieux) par les dégâts qu’a pu causer ce site
