Just spotted on the Google Blog that there is an update to Android Market comming out (more info at: http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones-with.html).
Just thought I would have a quick play around with the pre-release of of Silverstripe 3.0. Most of all I was interested to see how the de-coupeling of the administration interface and CMS from the Sapphire framework was going.
I love using Silverstripe, its a great CMS and Framework, easy to get into but powerful. But, there has been one thing bugging me for some time now, and that is managing all the different third party modules that you need in order to get your site up and running.
With the announcement that SIlverstripe are moving their core code base from SVN to GIT, I felt it was time for me to stop putting it off and bow to public pressure! So I dutifully installed the latest version and then had no idea what to do!
Anyone who is interested in Silverstripe is interested in what will happen in next iteration. By the sounds of it there are going to be a lot of big changes, but one of the ones I am very interested in is updating the design and layout of the admin area.
So the latest version of Ubuntu was released over the weekend, and being the Linux fanboy that I am I thought I would download the Netbook flavour and install the it on my Acer Aspire Revo. See if it was any better than previous versions.
Just recently I have been doing a lot of work on setting up and upgrading our internal and external networks. It has been quite an interesting and challenging job, that I am only just starting to get to grips with and I have learnt a lot about how to setup networks using open source software.
During my wanderings on the internet the other day, I came across a pretty slick little Linux operating system that, according to their site, has been built from the ground up 'to work on Intel Atom powered devices.
After feeling months of prolonged sadness at my lack of ownership of an Android based mobile device, I was ecstatic to hear that there were a group of developers over at XDA Developers who are trying to port Android over to older, Windows Mobile based HTC phones.
I noticed last night that Google has anounced a load of new features for Docs users. Biggest one is probably the fact you can now upload any file, and Google Docs will act as an online harddrive. Though currently there is only a gig of storage space.
