Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

PowerBuilder: Alive and Well in the Land of Milk and Honey
Presenting PB 12 Developer Day In Tel Aviv

By: Yakov Werde
Jul. 16, 2010 07:00 AM

I just finished delivering two developer days in Tel Aviv Israel in cooperation with Ness Technologies, the local Sybase distributor.  Over 70 developers attended.  For over 5 hours I overviewed, described and demo'd lots of PB 12 .NET features.  For the last 1.5 hours of the day I led the groups through a series of hands on exercises to give them a real world flavor of new IDE and platform and their advanced capabilities. Attendee excitement was palpable as I led them through migrating and testing several Classic applications.  They were enthused as I led them through trying out some of .NETs WPF and WCF features inside the latest incarnation of their favorite tool.

The Israeli IT industry media stopped by to report on and film a part of the presentation.  Check out the story. Here's the link http://www.pc.co.il/?p=35913

Although the story is in Hebrew, you can watch me talk about WPF and PB in the English language interview in the embedded video.  You can get a rough translation of the report using the Bing or Google page translation service

See you soon at TechWave in DC.  I'll be leading a breakout session about the PB StockTrader Reference application that I coded and delivered on four platforms in 3 weeks!
