This is the first in our mini-series looking briefly at the StarfishCI Toolbox controls. This video features the last control on the right hand side, the Button, which is used to allow the user to save data in the form, firstly to the iPad and then to Microsoft SharePoint.

Other brief videos will follow in the next few days; each looking at other controls.

Can't grok Gmail HAL - Privacy Trends unfolding

Blame the Daleks : I've never got over the childhood scarring from knowing our sofa was just no match for their death rays! I consider myself fairly well-read, certainly with a vocabulary bigger than England's soccer manager Fabio Capello claims . But thanks to the Daleks I've never read much science fiction so, until today, I'd never heard the word 'grok.' Kim_Cameron   kim cameron   People didn't "get over it". [ http://tcrn.ch/fER72l ] DOES NOT COMPUTE yet - "creepy"  GMAIL   HAL  too far out to GROK. Just wait. Check out his  www.IdentityBlog.com It seems that ' grok ' means " to understand so thoroughly that the observer becomes a part of the observed—to merge, blend, intermarry, lose identity in group experience. It means almost everything that we mean by religion, philosophy, and science—and it means as little to us (because of our Earthling assumptions) as color means to a blind man. " @Kim_Cameron is...

Not Orwell vs Huxley; but Orwell-Huxley

Huxley wrote Brave New World depicting a world where science and technology maximize pleasure, and all of life (including sex) is about 24/7 consumption. In his essay on Western society, Amusing Ourselves to Death , Neil Postman argued that Huxley, not Orwell, had been right.

You might want to zoom in on the chart to see the detail, but the 'new news' was that Google's Android , on phones and tablets, has overtaken Nokia's Symbian as the most widely used mobile operating system, and both are about double the iPhone. They also pointed out that: There are now more than 5 billion mobile phone connections world wide, with mobiles outnumbering PCs by 3:1 The amount of data we consumed in 2010 (2.8 exabytes ) essentially tripled from that of 2009 (1.1 exabytes). With the addition of Near Field Communications to mobile devices (think London's Oyster card ) expect to see electronic payments for small value purchases in Starbucks and similar to start appearing on mobile phone bills. Expect to see the convergence of loyalty cards with the geo-location capabilities of phones to tempt us back in to stores as we pass by. Expect to see fu...
