Firefox China Edition: It's a local browser, for local people
"Firefox China Edition isn’t going to replace the product that we ship as Firefox in China, and as with any bundle, if a user decides they want to remove this extra functionality, they can do so in the Add-Ons manager. Even so, Li and his team have been careful to ensure that as a product produced by Mozilla Online, it adheres to the values and principles our community shares. I’m really interested to see what the response is in China to a set of features which have been prepared specifically to create a browser for locals."
SmartGWT 1.0 Released!
"I am pleased to announce the first release of SmartGWT - GWT API's for SmartClient . This release is extremely feature rich and has been well tested, with around 250 samples in the Showcase illustrating various features and patterns. A huge thanks to the early adopters who have been using / testing / contributing samples over the past four weeks."
How Flash Can Integrate With The Open Web
"I've actually been turning this idea around in my head as well. It might surprise you since I'm an Open Web Advocate, but I like Flash. I've always tried to be non-ideological in my work. Flash has done good things and created a great deal of innovation. Adobe (and Macromedia before it) has always been good about evolving Flash forward, including making ActionScript more like JavaScript, embracing markup language development, open sourcing Flex, and more. I'd like to see Flash continue to evolve into being a core part of the Open Web. This would be good for Flash and good for the Open Web."
JavaScript iPhone Apps
"I've been watching, with interest, developers create new applications for the iPhone. Owning one myself - and being knowledgeable in JavaScript - I've been wondering what options there were for creating downloadable JavaScript applications or the iPhone. In doing some research I found a number of solutions, some simpler than others, some requiring more knowledge of Objective-C than others."
Why Apple Won't Allow Adobe Flash on iPhone
If Adobe can showcase it running in a performant manner, I think that peer pressure could push it in there. A lot of people want it.
