Exactly why I will always love RSS (http://www.jefclaes.be/2012/05/why-i-will-always-love-rss.ht...).

Nemmieon HTML5 is for the web, not for mobile apps

I always thought of all this native fad to be temporary. Can't we expect with browsers to mature and device performance to improve, to have a platform that's more than good enough to build mobile apps in the future? Anyways, I'm hoping that the crowd regains some common sense and starts advocating the web over these damn fenced gardens.

Nemmieon Share your weekend/part-time startup (December 2012)

Not really a start-up, but some things I've been working on, mostly in an attempt to get in the habit of shipping stuff opposed to writing.

1. Kill long meetings (http://killlongmeetings.com/). Counts the time and calculates the money you're spending in a meeting.

2. Where to pee in Antwerp (http://antwerp-wheretopee.apphb.com/). The city of Antwerp (Belgium) has opened up some of its data. This mobile web app get all the toilets in Antwerp and sorts them by distance. Shows that the browser is already capable of running these sort of apps; beats building 3 native apps.

3. Culture in Antwerp (http://antwerp-culture.apphb.com/). Also for the city of Antwerp. This is just a POC which should show that their current site (http://www.antwerpen.be/eCache/ABE/80/34/031.html) is visually very unattractive.

Nemmieon My brain can't handle OOP anymore

That can go both ways I guess. You can do OO right, you know?

Nemmieon Why I will always love RSS

Is there still room to build something like this? I think blogs/etc.. would only benefit and make it spread real easy?

Couldn't post it on the blog, but here is my original comment:

Who are you, and why are there more ads than content in this post?

Do you really think only people with the 'right' credentials have interesting things to say? That's shortsighted IMO.

Nemmieon How a web app can download and store over 2GB without you even knowing it

Hmm, that would be odd. Geolocation asks for permission even if it's localhost. Also when I download Angry Birds, no permission is asked.
