Blogs tend to be rife with speculation & mine is often no exception! However; to be fair, a lot of what I know as an insider, and working from my previous employer, inhibits me from going all out. So advance apologies if anything I say seems ‘couched’ or ‘safe’. Let me start out by saying [...]

I recently attended a fascinating conference about monetising mobile.  With about 60% of the 200 or so attendees being software developers. the conference had a good technical edge to it.    Dietrich Banschbach one of the directors of SSG at intel, reminded us that by the end of the year there would be more than 100 million [...]

We wanted legendary software developers and we got them. Five to start and many more to follow. The Legends program is a new way to share the story behind the applications.
