After attending one of the Google Developer days in London, I couldn’t help but think that Android is going down a bit of a bad road, taking away some of the simplistic things that made it such a perfect platform to develop for.
So in the good old days of Android, you downloaded a single SDK and everything worked, now you have to download it, and then run an application inside the SDK to install the required versions of code (which actually wasn’t all that obvious to me when I needed a new install of the SDK). But as the day progressed and I got to play with a load of devices, you quickly see that the OS versions on each device become a big problem. Read more »

I read an article over at Ubuntu Blogspot about the Lucid Lynx release and some of the plans
One of the things that caught my eye was the above diagram showing off the Ubuntu One service. While it’s already included in Karmic Koala, this diagram indicates to me that they are going to push it a little further, leaving it in the background for now for users to play with and route out any bugs.

I just read this article over at Slashdot:

Now there are a host of people commenting on audio players and different things, but it’s not Google’s thing, they advertise, most new technologies have some sort of advertising / searching (Which leads to advertising) element to it. Read more »

I do a fair bit of web development for free lance work, project work and personal sites. Each time I upgrade my Ubuntu Distro I like to do a clean installation rather than upgrade which means settings up apache on my machine, but each time I forget about how I created my set-up. This is where I’m going to dump my knowledge of doing things, mostly for me, but some of you lovely people might find it a bit useful

I just installed the new Eclipse for the year ahead and found I couldn’t install the Android Eclipse Plug-In. I did some googling and found out the problem is to do with my mouse clicks not getting to the buttons I was pressing.

It’s that time of year again when the friendly people of Ubuntu release a new version of their OS and this one is just as awesome as it’s predecessors!!.
The UI has been tweaked again and is getting there, the new icons on the gnome panel are fantastic, I was tempted to even try Evolution Mail, in place of Thunderbird, just to keep the mail icon there. So here’s my installation experience for you all . . . .

Yep, that’s right, I said it, iPhone is going to be a winner.
But this isn’t over any hate towards Google, Android, Cyanogen etc. but just more of the fact that Android is at a point of heading down 2 roads. One road leads to Android being fragmented, losing alot of it’s value. The other road leading to a community using different devices but one central set of app’s. I better explain what I’m talking about.
