The current web provides a two dimensional user experience. A user has to
interact with 2 dimensional objects in a browser. This experience is so much
frustrating that some users are turning back to old way of doing business -
go offline and call the live person.
A study by Forrester Research just found that for online travel web site
users.
This is no different for other web users. The fact is link based navigation
is orthogonal to human nature. The human mind excels with interaction. We
humans love interacting and need interactive user interface. When I say
interactive, it does not meaning link based navigation or web 2.0 style auto
refresh of data, what I indeed mean interacting in human language. The
ability to interact like you would do with a live person.
One should not need any special language or special technology to do business
online.

MySQL Journal on Ulitzer
Monty Widenius, the creator of the MySQL open source database – which is
apparently all that stands between Oracle and its acquisition of Sun –
thinks that Oracle shouldn’t have his baby and that the European Commission
– whose investigation into MySQL has put the Oracle-Sun merger in limbo –
should force Oracle to spit it out to another company.
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, a guy with a collector’s temperament not given to
letting things that belong to him go, has said he wants to keep MySQL and has
claimed to be watching Sun’s revenue plunge by $100 million a month while
he waits for the EC to finish its probe, a exercise that could take well into
January.
MySQL isn’t supposed to be why Larry shocked everybody and offered $7.4

was probably something he relished and wi... (more)

to give my earlier list a complete overhaul.
Here, accordingly, is an expanded list of the most active players in the

said that computers are useless. But I still love his reasoning? "Because
they can only give you answers."
Picasso, like AJAXWorld Magazine, liked questions. So we thought we would
share with you what some of the world's leading rich Internet application
pioneers are thinking may be the next questions that we need to see answered.
From that readers can themselves infer where AJAX is headed.
What are the top questions to ask next about AJAX?
Eric Miraglia of Yahoo!
1. (From March'08) How do I calculate the ROI of building my RIA on the
iPhone SDK vs using AJAX?
2. How do I assess the performance of my app and decide what to do next to
make it faster?
3. When it comes to accessibility, how do I know what's required of me for
my rich web apps? Beyond what's required, what makes good business se... (more)

Nov. 11, 2018 11:45 AM EST Reads: 2,284 | By Elizabeth White  IoT is rapidly becoming mainstream as more and more investments are made into the platforms and technology. As this movement continues to expand and gain momentum it creates a massive wall of noise that can be difficult to sift through. Unfortunately, this inevitably makes IoT less approachable for people to get started with and can hamper efforts to integrate this key technology into your own portfolio. There are so many connected products already in place today with many hundreds more on the h...

Companies that master this path have something in common: they create a culture of continuous innovation.
In his presentation, Dilipkumar Khandelwal outlined the latest research and steps companies can take to make innovation a daily work habit by using enterprise clo...
In a recent survey, Sumo Logic surveyed 1,500 customers who employ cloud services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). According to the survey, a quarter of the respondents have already deployed Docker containers and nearly as many (23 percent) are employing the AWS Lambda serverless computing framework.
It's clear: serverless is here to stay. The adoption does come with some needed changes, within both application development and operations. That means serverless is also changing the way we leverage public clouds. Truth-be-told, many enterpri...
