All event materials at your fingertips for your Conference, Tradeshow or Event participants.
Your Event Materials Go Mobile
Your attendees carry an iPhone, an iPad or an Android smartphone, and they now expect the agenda, the meeting materials, maps, tradeshow exhibitors and conference alerts right at their fingertips.
Our native apps do not require connectivity all the time, and we know that some of the conference or trade show venues are not built with connectivity in mind. With our app, we store the data on the mobile device, and synch only when connected.
We would love to mobilize your conference, trade show or other type of event. If interested, please contact us:

iPhone 4S is worth buying to look fashionable but not for Siri feature -- Shanghai Daily | 上海日报 -- English Window to China New
by night.kame
One of the most touted features of the iPhone 4S is the web-based voice recognition assistant Siri. It's interesting and sometimes powerful, but not always in China. First, it doesn't support Mandarin and China-based map and location services, which makes it somewhat less appealing than Apple's US-based advertising would have you believe. The good news is that Apple has said it will launch a Chinese-language version of Siri this year. Second, it can't always recognize words spoken in English. I tried it 10 times, and it recognized my words only 5 times. A Canadian native speaker who also tried found it worked seven out of 10 times. Still, it will give you results sometimes if it manages to catch only keywords.
Siri, c'est la personne qui vous répondra toujours au téléphone.

Exclusive: Adobe ceases development on mobile browser Flash, refocuses efforts on HTML5 | ZDNet
by srcmax
Sources close to Adobe that have been briefed on the company’s future development plans have revealed this forthcoming announcement to ZDNet:
Our future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash developers to package native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer adapt Flash Player for mobile devices to new browser, OS version or device configurations. Some of our source code licensees may opt to continue working on and releasing their own implementations. We will continue to support the current Android and PlayBook configurations with critical bug fixes and security updates.
iScroll 4
by srcmax & 1 other
iScroll 4 is a complete rewrite of the original iScroll code. The script development began because mobile webkit (on iPhone, iPad, Android) does not provide a native way to scroll content inside a fixed width/height element. This unfortunate situation prevents any web-app to have a position:absolute header and/or footer and a scrolling central area for contents.

csnover/js-iso8601 - GitHub
ECMAScript revision 5 adds native support for simplified ISO 8601 dates in the Date.parse method, but some browsers currently on the market (Safari 5-, IE 8-, Firefox 3.6-) do not support it. This is a simple shim for Date.parse that adds support for parsing ES5 simplified ISO 8601 strings to all browsers.

display-table.htc — emulation of {display: table/table-row/table-cell} for Internet Explorer 6/7 (IE6, IE7)
by srcmax
display-table.htc library is intended to emulate CSS properties of display: table* family in Internet Explorer 6 and 7 since they do not have its native support.
The library is intended solely for IE6/IE7 and disables itself automatically in IE8 and higher.
The emulation is implemented in JavaScript and works by generating real HTML table, which automatically replaces source element intended to behave as table.

Native style momentum scrolling to arrive in iOS 5 · Johan Brook
by srcmax
One of the biggest gripes of web apps in Mobile Safari comes to an end. In iOS 5 Beta 2, you are able to do this on an element with CSS:
overflow: scroll;
-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
And the content inside that element should get native style momentum scroll. Just like any other app in iOS.

HTML5 Cross Browser Polyfills - GitHub
by srcmax & 2 others
So here we're collecting all the shims, fallbacks, and polyfills in order to implant html5 functionality in browsers that don't natively support them.
The general idea is that: we, as developers, should be able to develop with the HTML5 apis, and scripts can create the methods and objects that should exist. Developing in this future-proof way means as users upgrade, your code doesn't have to change but users will move to the better, native experience cleanly.

About - QEMU
by oseres (via)
QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer.
When used as a machine emulator, QEMU can run OSes and programs made for one machine (e.g. an ARM board) on a different machine (e.g. your own PC). By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance.
When used as a virtualizer, QEMU achieves near native performances by executing the guest code directly on the host CPU. QEMU supports virtualization when executing under the Xen hypervisor or using the KVM kernel module in Linux. When using KVM, QEMU can virtualize x86, server and embedded PowerPC, and S390 guests.
