Free internet marketing class anyone?

Just got an email from one of my past instructors, Lonnie (aka CyberSorcerer) that he’ll be hosting an online radio show every Saturday at 4PM called Internet Marketing – Under the Hood. He tells me you can chat and “call in” through your computer’s mic, so it could be pretty interesting. If I’m not juggling a [...]

Queue up for the gold rush

So says the beginning of this USA Today article.  And that by 2015 mobile apps will overtake all other forms of business software. Which is so odd because in Back to Future 2 when they went to 2015, I don’t remember seeing a lot of iPads and other tablets but maybe if I look closely [...]

Away3D Lite on the Nexus One…

Below is a video from Rob Bateman at InfiniteTurtles.co.uk showing off what he put together for the Nexus one using that new AIR to Android extension. Thanks for sending this Tibi!

Why the internet is a cycle.

Okay webheads, this article is a must-read…. http://techcrunch.com/2010/05/01/the-internet-is-cyclical/ … And yeah, I know its longer than a few paragraphs, but here’s some reasons to read it…  it starts off with a quote from the Matrix (the best Matrix movie) with a picture from the Matrix, somewhere in the middle of the article is this juicy [...]

Only the unsexy in the App Store now.

Since some of you will hopefully be developing apps over the next few weeks, this is relevant news. Apple chucked out 5000 apps recently for racy content like bikinis, tight shorts, cleavage, or anything sexy that you might regularly see in a movie, TV ad, supermarket magazine stand, billboard, or in “real life” like on [...]

More kicking in the Adobe/Apple leafpile fight

Here’s another kick. This time coming from Adobe aimed at the shins, so its more like a sweep than a real high kick, as AIR is set to arrive on Android and Blackberry phones. AIR is that handy-dandy format that Flash or Flex can export out to, basically its an application, you just need to [...]

The prognosticator of prognosticators on the iBook, er, iPad

Check out what my buddy John wrote back in April 17, 2009 about Apple and a possible tablet… His prediction vs. Today’s actual ipad specs He nailed quite a lot. Even the price being more like $400 instead of the much predicted $1000. And while some folks back in April were saying Apple wasn’t even [...]

Flash CS5 means a million more piranhas in the App tank.

So the big news yesterday was that Flash CS5 (or Flash 11 for those like me still waiting for a strictly numbered comeback) will export to a native iPhone app. I heard that word “native” a few times in Adobe’s demo video, so I’ll use it too.  What’s implied is that this export from swf [...]

3D Spheres, cubes and the Almighty Teapot are impressive again!

I’m convinced that every few years the most basic shapes go back to looking cool just because they are 3D. Its like the 3D version of Moore’s Law. Except instead of the coolness of 3D trending upward in some way, it just reverts back to simple shapes.  Such is true with what lies ahead in [...]

Good news for Vancouver animators…

Pixar is coming your way… http://news.awn.com/index.php?ltype=top&newsitem_no=27612 Probably wouldn’t hurt to start checking Pixar’s official site too for more info in their jobs section if you do live in that neck of the woods. Or if you are in the Emeryville, CA area and want a Pixar job now, here’s a cool one rendering very, very [...]
