Two weeks ago, I shared that final builds of Visual Studio 2012 and .NET 4.5 had been created, and that they’d be available for MSDN Subscribers on August 15th. Well, today is August 15th, and I’m excited to announce that the bits are live and ready to go. Gentlemen (and ladies), start your downloads!

Ubuntu wants to put a full Linux desktop on your Android phone. It works, but does it work for you? [ITworld]
|

I am looking forward to the first Android device with Ubuntu OS to come out.
I used to be a MS follower until they tried to put a mobile kindergarden into my desktop, so why wouldn't it work if you put the desktop into the phone?
There is already a build of Ubuntu on Android which works on rooted SGS2 phones, and it even allows you to use the Ubuntu desktop using Android VPN app without a special dock hardware.

Somehow running a desktop on a device intended for simplier stuff just does not make sense. Plus only get this advanced environment when I am plugged in. Sorry, I will stay with my laptop with Visual Studio and Office installed.

Why don't they just block access to those new gTLDs? Problem solved.
And surely they're not thinking that the internet is currently free of booze, pr0n and profanity?

Since when do the Saudis tell everyone what to do? Oh yes, they have the oil.

Saudi is not the only one that will object to some. There are many in the US that will object to many of the new gTLDs (catholics, the tea party, the religious right in general), and especially .gay . Probably not find many against .wine thou.

The late Apple co-founder's home was burglarized by an alleged thief who didn't even seem to know whose home he was robbing. $60,000 in computers? They probably only cleared one room.

In November of last year, Adobe made a surprising about-face on its popular Flash plugin, announcing that it would stop development of Flash for mobile devices. Tomorrow, Adobe will disable new installs of Flash on Android, effectively cutting it off from the future of the mobile web — despite the company's historical assertion that Flash would enable the "full web experience" on mobile devices. Instead, Adobe surrendered the major mobile battlegrounds and pledged allegiance to HTML5. Both people using it mourn the loss

What’s the quickest way to startup success? One is to think of a great innovation. Another is to copy someone else’s great innovation. That's a lot easier than coming up with your own. And it’s often a shorter, surer path to your first million - or billion. Copy/Paste for fun and profit
