What website will be used to do this crowdsourcing?

I think LBS is not an independent service type. Google Maps or other maps/Geo-based services will be dominant.

Really hope Dan come here to respond questions.

It's bad that his personal website is not available recently: http://pointy-stick.com

Too much government stuff.

Is The Unix System still relevant now?

Isn't this one depreciated by Facebook itself?

Actually I have switched to Bing as my default search engine for a while. For English, Bing is good enough but very bad for Chinese.

There should be nothing new. Google services are blocked for several years. But not every service is blocked in the same way.

Google+ and Docs is wholly blocked a long time ago. Google.com is blocked intermittently. Gmail and Maps are usually OK, but not very fluent these several days.

GFW is a mysterious monolithic and complex system. No outsider knows the rules and mechanisms.

Nearly all are irrelevant or outdated ones.

Hope to see the frameworks on the Web.

I noted that Marcel Kornacker, the architect of Impala, was the lead developer for the query engine of Google’s F1 project. In the end of the article:

Now in China, the mainstream mid-end Android phones from local brands price at $150 or so. Less and less people buy Symbian and feature phones. And Windows Phone only has very small market share, maybe 3%. Nokia is dying.

An old and not really advanced Linux programming book. See comments on Amazon:

What platform is under the hood, Nokia? http://thenextweb.com/mobile/2012/09/17/nokia-confirms-amazo...

Phil Schiller said that it’s not clear that NFC is the solution to any current problem, Passbook does the kinds of things customers need today.

“As for wireless charging, Schiller notes that the wireless charging systems still have to be plugged into the wall, so it’s not clear how much convenience they add."

Last year Rovio said that they earned the same by ads on Android as iOS. Nearly 1 millon a month.

And I know a China team called Droinhen has good revenue from Play market

Hard to believe it. Younger than MySpace? And there are so many old people on Facebook?

A joke?

Good move!

No comment?

An April Fool Hoax.

LLVM is another important open source project from Apple. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Level_Virtual_Machine

And they also developed an open standard: OpenCL.

Can you write a blog on its content？

Thanks for pointing the original page which I did know before.

Why not merging with Tizen to be a dominant platform？

可惜错过了。下次早点通知啊。
