iPad, Android or Slate Tablets for 2011/2012

By Salar Golestanian @ Thursday, December 23, 2010 :: 11:36 PM :: 551 Views :: 0 Comments ::

Having chosen my top gadget of the year being my much loved iPad, I have given in to accepting the title with grace for being branded as "AppleFanBoy". I thought I might as well do my own forecast for the tablet world in 2011/2012. In doing so, I have been noticing that a lot of article coming out of the Tech World these days are doing their best for downgrading Apple's success with iPad. I don’t understand this love and hate relationship people have with Apple. For example the recent forecast by IDC and Forester is that "Android Tablets" going to catch-up with iPad in 2012.

Technology of the Year for me: Apple's iPad & Microsoft Hyper-V R2

By Salar Golestanian @ Saturday, December 18, 2010 :: 10:26 PM :: 477 Views :: 0 Comments ::

Today I was going to say something about what was the most attractive product during the 2010. But then I thought it better be something I have actually invested in rather than what just grabbed my attention but was not compelling enough for me or my family to buy and use. For me two product stands out last year and you may argue that one of them came about actually in 2008, but at least for me, I discovered it this year:-

3 New Online Services Perfect for Small Businesses, Qwiki, Sortify and Hashable

By Salar Golestanian @ Wednesday, December 15, 2010 :: 11:58 PM :: 359 Views :: 0 Comments ::

Doing web business in the last 5 years has been challenging, and more complexities are added to our daily routine, and it is likely to get even more complex in the future. It seems to me that these days I need to spend a quality time focussing on small things; yet very critical that was normally missed. We focus so much time on the stuff that needs to go out today that we sometimes forget the little things we should also consider. Original post at Salar Golestanian blogs.

Mobile OS & Browser Landscape is changing, should we change too?

By Salar Golestanian @ Friday, December 10, 2010 :: 10:34 PM :: 319 Views :: 0 Comments ::

For more than 3 years we have been producing mobile specific modules and skins/templates for the DotNetNuke platform and occasionally for other platforms. When we first started this path the king of mobile devices that was used for browsing was just Apple iPhone and other devices were still in WAP mode and therefore, were not man enough to even consider them.

Open Source Film Making: Star Wreck builds permanent community for collaborative movie making

By Salar Golestanian @ Monday, December 06, 2010 :: 3:01 PM :: 408 Views :: 0 Comments ::

This is going to sound a little like New Windows 7 Ads - "That was my Idea!" About 3 years ago I had an idea that I can use DotNetNuke in a collaborative approach to allow people to get together based on an idea of a movie and slowly gain traction and find people that can contribute and make the movie.

More on Apple's Granted Patent for a Complicated 3D Display Method

By Salar Golestanian @ Thursday, December 02, 2010 :: 9:16 PM :: 387 Views :: 0 Comments ::

For couple of years now or so I have been watching Apple with their ever growing number of patent applications for 3D Desktop technology. A lot of these are for glassless 3D display and 3D desktop of a sort. Not all of Apple's research is visible to outside world for obvious reasons. This kind of research is what is going to change our desktops sometime soon. Original post at Salar Golestanian blogs.

Iceland Volcano Might be the cause of coldest November in UK!

By Salar Golestanian @ Tuesday, November 30, 2010 :: 10:27 AM :: 362 Views :: 0 Comments ::

This morning I got up to see snow for the first time in November. And because I was not thinking of preparing my car for the winter, during the night the 3 years old battery in my car gave up because it is so cold, and the car alarm went off because the battery was low so I started asking myself what could be the cause.

Can Open Source Stop The Facebook Juggernaut?

By Salar Golestanian @ Thursday, November 25, 2010 :: 9:53 PM :: 395 Views :: 0 Comments ::

Facebook has become to the social web what Microsoft was to the desktop. Like Microsoft twenty years ago, they will probably succeed because a bad standard is better than none. $35 billion valuation; 600 million users; 25% of all US internet traffic estimated 10% of world Internet traffic. And now they plan Email and other tools to follow to add to their grip on their version of the Walled Garden Internet. FB has fewer employees than Google has job openings.
