PhoneGap February 17, 2012
Had the opportunity to do some research on PhoneGap. I was researching non-“objective c” platforms for developing mobile apps as well as trying to find cross-device platforms that could run natively if need be. HTML5 is the real hero in this matter, but PhoneGap does a good job of mapping the HTML5 functions to the iPhone SDK and Android SDK as well as other devices, so that it can be compiled and run as a native app.
The difficult part in this matter is convincing people that HTML5 has all the necessary functionality for their app design. Though I haven’t done enough research at this point, it does appear that a lot of the common mobile device features like capture (video, audio, photo) and geolocation are supported. I hope to sit down and develop an example app at some point to have a better understanding of it.
Getting ready to launch my first ASP.NET MVC 3 site, rkilkenny.com. My hope is that it will become a template for developers to share important details of their skillsets/portfolios with interested parties (clients, prospective employers, fellow developers, etc..).
Released Feb 28, 1995 – Here’s Groucho compiles ten musical comedy performances and sketches from the inimitable Mr. Marx; highlights include “Hooray for Captain Spaulding,” “Dr. Hackenbush” and a pair of recordings also featuring Danny Kaye, Jimmy Durante and Jane Wyman — “How D’Ye Do and Shake Hands” and “Black Strap Molasses.”

Ubiquitous days.. Walking to and from. Eat. Enjoy life.. for 3 hours. Sleep. Repeat. The ebb and flow of working.
Upon hearing a conversation while riding the max, I was forced to think about the way people think about other people thinking… Specifically, this coversation was anti-gay and everyone involved seemed to agree that.. “it just ain’t right” —
Now I instantly wanted to interject “the worlds problems all stem from people thinking what’s right for themselves is right for everyone!”, but I held back and let them continue to tell stories to eachother about encounters with “faggots” – all the usual generalities.
I couldn’t stop thinking about how there are still a lot of people out there that really think that their concept of right/wrong extends well beyond the confinements of their own mind. Perhaps what I should’ve said was “you’re all wrong!”
