Tech with Magnus
Magnus from Pingdom.com joins me to talk tech!
www.dxbtech.com is a great place to get the show notes and more!
Discount code ? Sure! we run the same "pingdomdxb"
50% off of a 1-year Basic Package, saving almost $60
The move underscores the seriousness with which the two companies view the problem.
Most popular global apps such as Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare and Evernote are available on the Windows Phone platform, but makers of many niche or local apps have shied away.
The number of apps available in the Windows Phone Marketplace now exceeds 65,000, surpassing those at another rival Research in Motion’s BlackBerry store. But that is still far short of around half a million apps available on the Apple App Store and Google Play, according to app researcher Distimo.
Worse still, only 37 per cent of developers are keen to make apps for Windows Phone, showed the latest IDC/Appcelerator survey. That number, slightly down from the previous survey, compared with the 89 per cent interested in iPhone and 79 per cent in Android phones.
“Mobile developers’ interest for the Windows platform has been for the least very lukewarm over the last two years, with no sign of improvement,” Sanford C. Bernstein analyst Pierre Ferragu said.
Apple has decided on the bigger 4.6-inch display for its next iPhone and started placing orders to its suppliers, the Maeil Business Newspaper said, quoting an unnamed industry source.
Its major display suppliers LG Display and Samsung Electronics Co declined to comment.
Samsung, which is also the biggest challenger to Apple in smartphones, uses 4.6-inch OLED display for its flagship Galaxy S II smartphone, introduced in April last year.
The high-definition “retina” display – containing several times as many pixels within the same area – is used in the latest iPad released earlier this month.

On Monday, Microsoft and Nokia said they would invest a total of $23.9-million into a new mobile application development program, AppCampus, at Helsinki’s Aalto University during the next three years.The move underscores the seriousness with which the two companies view the problem.

Targus stylus for iPad
- There are better ones
- But this is only about $10-15
- Tip is a bit too big and too soft
Noteshelf note app
- Create different notebooks, different covers, different types of paper
- In-app purchases for covers and papers
- $6
I tried iPad 3, “new iPad”
- Amazing!
Web devs are dreading iPad 3, high res graphics
- Apple.com show graphics with twice the number of pixels to iPad 3 users
- More bloat!

Off The Rack Business Essentials!
My big complaint about education is that it is out of touch.
Great textbooks that are wonderful historical documents BUT they are not really good at looking at what is happening right now!
This show, with Narain Jashanmal, is a great conversation about some essential reading off the magazine rack.
This is a free education!
Here is the podcast.
BIZ101
All too often we pick up a textbook and figure it will help us with the basics of our business.
Maybe, maybe not.
I think a great way to learn and develop your skills is to talk to others in the thick of things!
on BIZ101 we talk with EO members about the reality of running a business.
