Friday, April 21, 2006Continue to Work on the UndergroundLondon Underground has announced that it is to start trials in four stations that will eventually lead to being able to use your mobile phones on the tube for the first time. While I like the idea of being able to continue to use my device for data access underground I am less keen on losing that last bastion of peace and quiet to the mobile phone. Still I don’t need to fret about it just yet, after the trial London Underground will go out to tender and so the earliest date for a network roll out won’t be until 2008 at the earliest. posted @ 02:13 PM GMT [link] Thursday, April 20, 2006Mobile Web Browsing on the IncreaseCNET have reported that browsing from a mobile device is becoming "mainstream" with 27% of the more affluent over 35s doing so at some point during 2005. This is an increase of 6% over 2004. What is significant about this is that the consumer led usage is likely to have a significant positive impact on the workplace usage of devices for browsing. This is because if individuals become familiar with the concept in the comfort of their own homes they are likely to be more comfortable to do so at work with a business application. Without this gentle introduction there would likely be some nervousness about the introduction of such new technologies. What the report does not state is what the individuals were browsing for. From my own usage I can assume that it is likely to be the latest sports news. posted @ 02:40 PM GMT [link] Wednesday, April 19, 2006
Previously detecting a user's browser was important because of the differences in the way that Internet Explorer and Netscape rendered HTML and so the "experience" you get could be different for the same site. At least that was the reason so many people worried about it. Now that Internet Explorer commands over 90% of the browser market it is hardly worth worring about. Unless you are a Firefox fanatic of course... posted by {{entrysubject] >neil @ 01:45 PM GMT [more..] Monday, April 17, 2006
One of the things that AppSwing prides itself on is that it's customers are able to run their business applications on the web browser of ANY connected device. This is a pretty bold statement to make but something that we believe is important to ensure that customers can get the benefits of:
And when we say "any device" we mean any device. I cannot quite image a business that would have the Sony PSP as their device of choice but, as you can see from the screenshots below it would be perfectly possible.
