When human beings embark on a new endeavour it’s natural to initially feel that it’s impossible to accomplish it. As time goes by and this endeavour starts to evolve, things begin to look achievable, then the mood changes from impossible to “if I would have known that!”. Hopefully, after the happy ending of the endeavour,…

We will not talk about the current Apple TV, which Apple have said numerous times, is a hobby, we’ll talk about the numerously rumoured Apple TV set (or whatever its final form would be). Let’s start by saying that is quite possible that such a device is already designed and built, the problem is there’s…

Much has been written about the fall of Blackberry (BB). On our side we even speculated that maybe since they were doing so well not long ago, it was difficult for them to argue any changes in direction. Well, nothing can be farthest from the truth. The inside scoop went outside last week-and thanks to…

Some time ago we speculated on the impact the proposed Metaio’s AR chip could have on the industry.  As we said earlier, any improvement in AR is good for everybody. Lets take a brief look at the new co-processors, X8 from Motorola and M7 from Apple. All of this, from an AR point of view….

Ever since Android started to get traction is has been tagged with one significant drawback: fragmentation. Indeed, fragmentation on the platform is a challenge. However what surprises me about the whole theme is how it is reported as a drag to the platform and as if it has never existed on computing before and because…

Once upon a time there was an small company named Google. This company was gaining public’s awareness. They were concentrated on search, as so, one of their first forays on desktop (i.e. Windows) was a little product called ‘Google Desktop’, with the only mission of indexing the files on people’s computer in order to make…

As have mentioned before, among our providers, we use Windows Azure. Within it, there’s the option to host a free web site, which we find it perfectly to host a Firefox OS hosted web app (considering our current traffic). However, given that Azure is based on IIS (you can also have LAMP, but that’s under…

Once, a wonderful teacher I had taught me “Engineering is about making sacrifices, you loss something to gain another one”. That has stick to me ever since. Personally, I think Windows 8 is suffering from that. Microsoft doesn’t want to scarify much of it in order to keep it compelling to the established based, which…
