The past few months have been really fascinating to watch. My first little application Doomi has been passed around dozens of blogs, favorited, bookmarked, twittered, screencasted, and pretty much made the webernet rounds. Here’s some statistics. In the past 3 months, Doomi has been installed over 2500 times, it’s single page has been hit over […]

Just picked this awesome tip off Kevin Hoyt’s blog. This is basically Firebug for AIR, something I’ve been dreaming about since Beta 2. I really could have used this the last few months while developing my AIR app, but better late than never. Its good to see Adobe doing whatever they can to make our […]
The semester has officially come to an end which means, the chaos is over. The last month has been absolutely crazy with school, free-lance, and work. So much so that I havn’t even had the time to update my precious blog. To my loyal readers, I apologize. My current goal is to post here minimum […]
It’s late at night, but the tech industry never sleeps. Meebo opens up a platform for developers… wow.
Guess what one of the first apps is? Video Conferencing through Meebo ( using TokBox ). Finally, somebody besides way too buggy aMSN ( which I still don’t know how to pronounce ) launches a webcam feature. Not […]
Mozilla takes another step forward in bringing web applications outside of the browser. Mozilla describes Prism as “an application that lets users split web applications out of their browser and run them directly on their desktop.” Mozilla’s primary focus seems to be using web apps outside of the browser…. as long as you have a […]
Hungry?
UltraMon for Windoze rocks. I could really use something like this on the macbook. For a dual monitor setup it creates two* task bars.
