Live at the Fleur Cafe

The Monaco summit is over. For the finale, half a dozen teams competed in a 48-hour hackathon to show that a one-or-two person team can put together a social networking app in two days of coding using WRT. Beyond the gimmick there is a compelling story. As one speaker said, we shouldn't really be calling them widgets - these are not necessarily widgets at all, these are apps. It's a theme we'll be exploring and developing on Mobile Innovator. Meanwhile, there may never have been such hunger for your apps, or so many routes to market. Samsung has an offering there too, of course, with the Samsung Mobile App Store. But no more cafes. Back to the airport, back to my desk. -- Ben.
