Why did JavaFX 1.x divide the Java community so much? How does the new 2.0 roadmap fit into the current (and future) landscape of RIAs? Is Paul the Octopus on Twitter? Some or none of these questions may be answered in this blog post.
Web Applications

Sigh! They say a watched pot never boils -- I wonder if the same is true for early access releases? There you are, having the time of your life with a new bleeding edge API, then !!boom!!, suddenly that one key function you need is frustratingly non-existent! Not to worry -- it'll be in the next update... won't it(?!?)

What does it all mean? Seems nobody really knows, not when it comes to Rich Internet Applications anyway! The term is now so diluted, polluted, mutated and contorted, even its own mother wouldn't recognise it! Do we need a RADICAL solution?

Being big, or smart, doesn't make you any better at noticing the huge hull ripping iceberg rapidly approaching through the water. As we wave bye-bye to Bill (at least in his nine-to-five role), is Microsoft really history, and Google the future?

We all have light bulb moments from time to time, ideas for new software which scream "code me". Google's new App Engine promises to get your ideas up and running without the traditional hassle, leaving you to focus on your code... but are there consequences further down the line?
