Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC)

It has been a crazy couple of months at work, but we finally got to launch the Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC) and the press reaction (BBC, CNet News, The Register) has made it all worth while. Now that the launch is out of the way, I can get to do some research on this beast and hopefully get back to a more normal life :-)

So long and thanks for all the code

by on Aug.22, 2009, under Computing

In what maybe a sign of consolidation in the Android community, the grandfather of Android hacking, JesusFreke, has decided to quit making Android ROM images. Thankfully, his work has enabled others including Cyanogen to carry the torch of open source forward :-)

JesusFreke – thanks for all you’re hard work.

Facebook reponds to photograph abuse claims

by on Jul.24, 2009, under Computing

Facebook has responded to the accusations of abuse of personal photographs by advertisers stating that the offending advertisements have been removed from Facebook for violating their policies by misusing profile photos.

It is nice to see them respond to the public concern, but personally I feel safer now that I have just opted out of all such potential use.
