The rise and fall of webOS is an epic tale; webOS != Web OS on Dion Almaer's Blog

Tue, 26 Feb 2013 23:37:43 +0000

in my heart I long for someone to come along with a true Web runtime that lets developers write to a standards-based multi-vendor platform that no one company owns. Democracy is messy, but the Open Web is worth it. Don’t read one article and think that it can’t be done.

Microsoft Borrows Palm's Advertising for Windows Phone 7 Series

Thu, 18 Mar 2010 14:30:09 +0000

"Did you see those great ads pushed out the other day from Palm? It looks like Microsoft, who forgot to borrow copy & paste or multi-tasking, has the same ad team or at least the same great idea. Now it’s time for Palm to creatively borrow a few elements from the Microsoft ad. How about adding a few different demographics and have the people in the ads carrying webOS phones."

Daring Fireball Linked List: Kara Swisher on Microsoft's Mobile Dilemma

Oh god, I hope MSFT never buys Palm. I'd be in the market for an Android phone, then. "RIM seems like a natural fit, in terms of its customer base and the whole look and feel of BlackBerry software. Palm would be the bolder play."

State of the Art - Palm Provides Plenty of P’s With Improved Phones - NYTimes.com

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 23:37:15 +0000

"But first: frankly, I can’t fathom why the Pre and the Pixi haven’t proved to be more popular. The polish and panache of both phones are phenomenal. Both phones feature Palm’s Web OS software, a fine, fluid operating system that, in many aspects, out-iPhones the iPhone. Among other pluses, the software multitasks, so you can put on Pandora radio as you process your e-mail. These are multitouch phones, too, meaning that two-finger gestures (like pinching to shrink a photo or Web page) work perfectly."

Palm Developer Network Blog » Project Ares Open Beta

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 04:26:46 +0000

"The heart of Ares is its visual drag-and-drop interface builder. The interface builder makes it simple to build complex layouts that adapt to orientation changes and support multiple webOS devices. The visual debugger in Ares goes far beyond the debugging tools previously available to webOS developers, and Ares’ code editor (based on the pioneering work of Mozilla’s Bespin delivers a great experience. Even in beta, we think you’ll find Ares to be the most complete and efficient environment for building webOS apps."

Aral Balkan · Maximizing your DROIT, or: why you should learn HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript for mobile development.

"While Microsoft drifts aimlessly with Windows Mobile trying to play a fruitless game of cat and mouse with Apple, and while Google – the defender of all things open and web – invests in Java with Android, one company has come out of left field with a solid vision to embrace open web technologies for its mobile platform. That company is Palm and its platform is called WebOS. And you should stand up and take notice because it is one of the most important developments in the mobile world today."

Mojo Test Framework

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 16:05:19 +0000

"Where Mojo.Test diverges from the usual xUnit-type framework is in support for testing components that depend on asynchronous callbacks. Mojo.Test provides a callback function for results that can be used at the end of a chain of any number of callbacks from the component under test. It also maintains a test timer, which will cause the failure of any test that doesn't report a result within a configurable time limit. "
