Steve Jobs: Flash Is No Longer Necessary
by isaac kinyanjui 03 May '10

http://mashable.com/2010/04/29/steve-jobs-flash-is-no-longer-necessary/ New open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win on mobile devices (and PCs too). Perhaps Adobe should focus more on creating great HTML5 tools for the future, and less on criticizing Apple for leaving the past behind....jobs

TRENDY DESKTOP - HOW KENYANS TWEET: THE TOP TWITTER CLIENTS
by Jacob Ayienda 03 May '10

03 May '10

HOW KENYANS TWEET: THE TOP TWITTER CLIENTS I looked at 6,500 tweets and found more than 55 different ways in which kenyans interact with the Twitter. Some of the results, which follow below, were rather surprising. I used the Twittter API to monitor public feeds from Kenyan locality over a 24hr period. The tweets were cumulatively collected for 24hr period using Trendy Desktop. THE RESULTS WERE AS FOLLOWS 1. twitter - 59% ... 33% are from m.twitter.com 2. snaptu - 15% 3. dabr - 7% 4. apiwiki - 7% 5. ubertwitter - 3% 6. hootsuite - 3% 7. twitpic - 2% 8. mobileways - 1% others were identi, mobileways, facebook it would appear that majority of the users access twitter via their mobile phones...directly through the web and others through apps. Most of this data will be accesible via the next release of Trendy Desktop likely coming out next week...
