Android SDK only for “contest winner”.

It seems to me that the gentleman of Google are exaggerating. You it seems just who to benefigiare of the new modernizations to the SDK of Android are only the vincitori of the contest? And the others?
Bitter the comment of a sviluppatore on the forum of Android: “Thus while some benefit of a release private of SDK, the rest of we suffers from more than 4 months with the bug battery from the old one release”.
I cannot that share, above all considering the fact that to the Italians has not been granted to participate to the contest. Besides the damage the prank.

Among other things this beautiful thought chronological is dated a pair of weeks after that a sviluppatore had begun to make circular a petition online speeding up Google approximately the urgency of update. There is from thinking that some “developer incazzato” is put to develop software for the iPhone. In order now Google not retort, we will be to see.

Nokia buys Symbian

Nokia acquires Symbian and the news could calmly pass unnoticed and catalogued like a simple share buying and selling action, if it were not for the announcement of the formation of the Symbian Foundation. The foundation comprises members of the bore of Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, NTT DoCoMo, AT&T, LG Electronics, Samsung Electronics, STMicroelectronics, Texas Instruments and Vodafone, and all will have approached the code of Symbian under a licence royalty-free. The idea would be that to join Symbian, S60, UIQ and MOAP in order to create a platform open source for dispositive furnitures in a position to contrasting the O.S of LiMo Foundation and Google Android. But sapete qual'è the more important news? At least from my point of view it is the renewed interest that Nokia extension towards the open source. It very makes to hope; you do not believe?

Which end has made Android?

In Italy of it is not spoken nearly more, probably because of the “shame “, thus, made curious, I have tried news in the net, till imbattermi in this post. Here Technology refers of a university professor of the Institute Massachusetts of, such Hal Abelson who, in the last semestre, has assigned to 20 students of computer science the task to plan software for cellular that they use Android.

And they have been sbizzarriti. One of these plans calls “GeoLife” and from the possibility to settare of the lists of things that I telephone it will help to remember. Nothing to report you will say, but this recognizes the places; as an example if we are taking a walk at the market I telephone vibrates and, through a sms, it perceives to us that probably we must buy the latte ones. Or “Premises”, that it allows to settare I telephone in vibrated mode in office, or silent mode to the theatre, or in ring mode from every other part. This last plan also has gained the US$25,000 of prize of the famous competition of Google and is passed in end in order to participate to the Android developers challenge, prize to the winner: 10 million dollars.
I omit every other comment on the Italian situation; memory only country together to Syria, Iran and Korea of the North to being excluded from the contest for Android. Perhaps the Italian sviluppatori are not thus good like those of the Mit, what of which I doubt, but it the possibility has not been date to try!

Gdrive.

In this detail historical moment seems that or Google to dictate the times of the technological innovation in computer science field; the giant American succeeds sfornare an incredible amount of ideas, plans, software, than most times they are revealed of the phenomenal successes. Now it is the time of Gdrive, the new service of “Online Storage” whose launch is previewed for the next year.

Services of recording online are already in being, but the majority is introduced like solutions of backup remote or virtual for hacker and pirati warehouses informed to us. Solutions like Omnidrive, MediaMax and Box.Net already offer to some advance functions like the cryptography and the editing of multimediali rows, but Gdrive seems to be an operation of greater proportions much able one also than to enter in competition with Windows Live Skydrive being constructed a portal for all, from the document, to editing of photo and the video, to the visualization of the email. But I do not believe that Gdrive is only this. Coupled with Android, the operating system open source for telephones cellular, Gdrive perfectly adapts the customers who try to approach own rows, always and anywhere.
