And this time, I will talk about mod_python.psp where <b>PSP</b> stands for <b>Python Server Pages</b>.<br /><br />What good about Python Server Pages for former PHP or JSP programmer is the way you can write your code where you can use the &lt;% # your code here %&gt; tag as you always do. But before that, you have to configure your server to enable mod_python.psp.<br /><br /><b>Pre-requisite</b><br />In order to run your site with PSP, you have to install and enable mod_python. Here is the steps if you are using Ubuntu:<br /><ol><li>Install apache2 and libapache2-mod-python and enable mod-python<br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ sudo apt-get install apache2<br />$ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-python<br />$ sudo a2enmod python</pre></li><li>Edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default. Search for this lines:<br /><pre dir="ltr" style="border: 1px inset; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; overflow: auto; width: 98%; height: 130px; text-align: left;">&lt;Directory /var/www/&gt;<br /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews<br /> AllowOverride None<br /> Order allow,deny<br /> allow from all<br /> &lt;/Directory&gt;<br /></pre>and add python handler like this:<br /><pre dir="ltr" style="border: 1px inset; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; overflow: auto; width: 98%; height: 220px; text-align: left;">&lt;Directory /var/www/&gt;<br /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews<br /> AllowOverride None<br /> Order allow,deny<br /> allow from all<br /> <font color="red"><br /> AddHandler mod_python .psp<br /> PythonHandler mod_python.psp<br /> PythonDebug On<br /> </font><br /> &lt;/Directory&gt;<br /></pre></li><li>Restart your apache<br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart</pre></li><li>You can also enable index.php for your DirectoryIndex by editing /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf and add this string (in red):<br /><pre dir="ltr" style="border: 1px inset; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; overflow: auto; width: 98%; height: 70px; text-align: left;">&lt;IfModule mod_dir.c&gt;<br /> DirectoryIndex <font color="#FF0000">index.psp</font> index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml index.htm <br />&lt;/IfModule&gt;<br

I have made some modification on the source code and then it spark me an idea to share the source code as open source too. Therefore, I clean up my messy code, make some documentation and comments so people can reuse the code. And I name it as <a href="http://code.google.com/p/hitunghari/">HitungHari</a>.<br /><br />The word <b>HitungHari</b> actually come from Malay words for counting days. Where 'Hitung' means 'Count', and 'Hari' means 'Days'. I have more ideas to develop from this piece. Perhaps, you may also have ideas too. I would be glad to hear your comments. Checkout the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/hitunghari/">Google Code site for HitungHari</a> and feel free to download, try, hack, and comment it.<br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2FCoders-Talk%2F138805102822113&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=640&amp;action=like&amp;font=tahoma&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=35" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:640px; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3928190665450830956-5432157279446514639?l=coderstalk.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodersTalk/~3/Mb9Xvezi-tA/hitunghari-php-countdown-banner.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (ApOgEE)1http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/2011/04/hitunghari-php-countdown-banner.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928190665450830956.post-6567037680853122893Tue, 19 Apr 2011 04:21:00 +00002011-04-25T19:06:31.451+08:00open sourceOSDC.my<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/2011/04/mosc-2011-countdown-banner.html" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PRcz1mT6i14/Ta0MuNXTL3I/AAAAAAAACSU/kuDdjSCW4lw/s600/mosc-countdown-inkscape-apogee.png" width="520" /></a></div><br />I'm just having fun with PHP GD and Inkscape.

Drop a little amount of it to my text book while my teacher is teaching something else, and see the pages being eaten by those acids. Just because I'm getting bored in class. That was one case of myself. How about you? Have you ever misuse your science lab chemicals?

In my case, it get rebooted when I'm running few programs that continuously reading the input from the DIO. As this system is running linux, we can use swap memory instead of physical RAM. So, to solve this problem, we can create swap file on this ts-7260. Here is how to add swapfile on ts-7260 board running the default debian Sarge on ts11 kernel 2.4 SD card boot linux.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Let's check the free memory...<br /><pre id="linuxterm"><span class="fullpost">root@ts7000:root# free -m<br />total used free shared buffers cached<br />Mem: 28 26 1 0 1 18<br />-/+ buffers/cache: 6 21<br />Swap: 0 0 0<br /></span></pre><br />From the above result, you can see the total memory is 28 and we have 0 on swap. Now, we have to create the swapfile using this command:<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">root@ts7000:root# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=98304<br />98304+0 records in<br />98304+0 records out<br />100663296 bytes transferred in 75.990000 seconds (1324691 bytes/sec)<br />root@ts7000:root# mkswap -L swapfile /swapfile<br />Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 100659 kB<br />LABEL=swapfile, UUID=6c0cf1ae-d174-48c6-99ac-cc9f2a35ba21<br />root@ts7000:root# swapon /swapfile <br /></pre><br />Check free memory again<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">root@ts7000:root# free -m<br />total used free shared buffers cached<br />Mem: 28 26 1 0 1 18<br />-/+ buffers/cache: 6 21<br />Swap: 95 0 95<br />root@ts7000:root# <br /></pre><br />Now, you should see there is 95MB swap. And to make it permanent, add this entry on /etc/fstab<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">/swapfile none swap sw 0 0<br /></pre><br />as the command goes...<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">root@ts7000:root# cat /etc/fstab<br />proc /proc proc defaults 0 0<br />none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0<br />/dev/sdcard0/disc0/part3 / ext2 defaults,noatime,async 1 1 <br />root@ts7000:root# vi /etc/fstab<br />root@ts7000:root# cat /etc/fstab<br />proc /proc proc defaults 0 0<br />none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0<br />/dev/sdcard0/disc0/part3 / ext2 defaults,noatime,async 1 1 <br />/swapfile none swap sw 0 0<br /></pre><br />I hope this can help you with your ts-7260 SBC.

Just grab your tools and start small. This time, I just wanna show you how to start C programming in linux. You can use any Linux distro. However, if you are beginner, just follow me using Ubuntu Linux.<br /><br /><b>1. Install the required packages.</b><br />First of all, you have to make sure that you have C compiler to compile your code. In linux, we use "gcc - GNU project C and C++ compiler".<br /><br />In Debian, Ubuntu and it's family distro, all the basic programming tools for C programming can be found in build-essential package. Use this command to install this package:<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ sudo apt-get install build-essential </pre><br /><b>2. Write your first program</b><br />Now, after installing the required package, we can start coding our first program. As usual, you may start with a "Hello World" program.<br /><br /><b>Create new project directory</b><br />Under your home directory, you may start creating your project directory to begin with. In this example, I'm calling it as myhello:<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ mkdir myhello</pre><br />Then, get into our project directory:<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ cd myhello</pre><br />Now, create our hello.c file. You may follow this example "hello world" code or be imaginative to modified it as you like. Experiments to see what is possible to modify in this code:<br /><pre style="border: 1px inset; height: 100px; margin: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 3px; text-align: left; width: 98%;"><span class="codestyle_9">#include&nbsp;</span><span class="codestyle_6">&lt;stdio.h&gt;</span><br /><br /><span class="codestyle_5">int&nbsp;</span><span class="codestyle_11">main</span><span class="codestyle_10">()&nbsp;{</span><br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="codestyle_11">printf</span><span class="codestyle_10">(</span><span class="codestyle_6">"Hello&nbsp;My&nbsp;friend,&nbsp;Let's&nbsp;do&nbsp;C&nbsp;programming\n"</span><span class="codestyle_10">);</span><br /><span class="codestyle_10">}</span><br /></pre><br /><b>3. Compile your program.</b><br />To compile your first linux C program, launch your terminal and go to current directory where you put your hello.c code. Then, run this command:<br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ gcc hello.c -o hello</pre><br />After that, you will have an executable file called hello in this directory. Congratulations! you have created your first C program in linux. You can now, execute this program using this command:<br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ ./hello</pre><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/TBhgHjxOJTI/AAAAAAAACFs/vh6yS1te4u0/s1600/myhello.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/TBhgHjxOJTI/AAAAAAAACFs/vh6yS1te4u0/s400/myhello.png" width="400" /></a></div>The output will be printed on your screen. You can add more stuff and experiments. Until next time, I hope you enjoy this.

Although the word is not an acronym, some companies implementing the process have been known to spell it with capital letters as SCRUM. Maybe because Ken Schwaber capitalized SCRUM in the title of his early papers about this methodology.<br /><br />Although Scrum was intended for management of software development projects, it can be used to run software maintenance teams, or as a general project/program management approach.<br /><br />A number of roles are defined in Scrum. All roles fall into two distinct groups — pigs and chickens — based on the nature of their involvement in the development process. These groups get their names from a joke about a pig and a chicken opening a restaurant<br /><br />There are several variants as to how the Chicken and the Pig meet and the level of the relationship between the two.<br /><br />However, in every variant, the Chicken suggests that the two involve themselves in a scheme involving ham (or bacon) and eggs (some suggest a breakfast, others suggest a restaurant). In reply, the Pig always notes that, for the Chicken, only a contribution is required (as a chicken can simply lay an egg and then resume normal activities), while for the Pig a "total commitment" (or total sacrifice) is needed (as in order to make ham or bacon, the pig must be slaughtered).<br /><br /><a href="http://www.implementingscrum.com/2008/07/25/welcome-to-a-time-machine-future-and-past-combine-here/" target="_blank"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 141px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/S4HvSv1qE_I/AAAAAAAACA8/o5xlgrJeKSw/s400/060911-scrumtoon.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440892930198475762" /></a><br />So the “pigs” are committed to building software regularly and frequently, while everyone else is a “chicken”—interested in the project but really indifferent because if it fails they’re not the pigs—that is, they weren’t the ones that committed to doing it. The needs, desires, ideas and influences of the chicken roles are taken into account, but are not in any way allowed to affect, distort or get in the way of the actual Scrum project.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;font-size:23px">“Pig” roles</span><br /><br />The Pigs are the ones committed to the project in the Scrum process—they are the ones with “their bacon on the line” and performing the actual work of the project.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Scrum Master (or Facilitator)</span><br />Scrum is facilitated by a Scrum Master, whose primary job is to remove impediments to the ability of the team to deliver the sprint goal. The Scrum Master is not the leader of the team (as the team is self-organizing) but acts as a buffer between the team and any distracting influences. The Scrum Master ensures that the Scrum process is used as intended. The Scrum Master is the enforcer of rules. A key part of the Scrum Master’s role is to protect the team and keep them focused on the tasks in hand.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Team</span><br />The team has the responsibility to deliver the product. A team is typically made up of 5–9 people with cross-functional skills who do the actual work (design, develop, test, technical communication, etc.).<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Product Owner</span><br />The Product Owner represents the voice of the customer. He/she ensures that the Scrum Team works with the “right things” from a business perspective. The Product Owner writes customer-centric items (typically user stories), prioritizes them and then places them in the product backlog. A Product Owner can be a member of the Scrum Team but cannot be a ScrumMaster.<br />According to original Scrum, Product Owner is in a "pig" role. However, if the Product Owner does not have involvement regularly, he/she may be considered as a "chicken" .<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;font-size:23px;">“Chicken” roles</span><br /><br />Chicken roles are not part of the actual Scrum process, but must be taken into account. They are people for whom the software is being built.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Stakeholders (customers, vendors)</span><br />These are the people who enable the project and for whom the project will produce the agreed-upon benefit[s], which justify its production. They are only directly involved in the process during the sprint reviews.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Managers</span><br />People who will set up the environment for the product development organizations.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.implementingscrum.com/2006/12/19/go-directly-to-jail-do-not-pass-go/" target="_blank"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 141px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/S4H2poCnfHI/AAAAAAAACBE/0QEDe0y3lPw/s400/061218-scrumtoon.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440901019823733874" /></a><br />That's all for now...

In my case, if I write the SD cards for my ts-7260, I would leave it and do other stuff.<br /><br />Since it is easy to get distracted with so many stuff on the internet, I sometimes forget to get back to check the dd terminal. This could waste my time because the process have stopped for quite long time where I should write another card instead just right after the first card finished.<br /><br />Therefore, I use notify-send from <a href="http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/2010/02/how-to-install-notify-send-in-ubuntu.html">libnotify-bin package</a> to notify me about my process while I'm free to check my mail, reading, surfing and so on.

And here's how to do it in the simplest newbie way.<br /><br />Before that, I assume you may wanted to add this hyperlink on your Blogger Header Description because maybe you want to invite your visitor to your business website or any other sites you have. For example, I may like to invite my blog reader to read my art blog at http://artofapogee.blogspot.com and my blog description says something like this:<br /><br /><blockquote>Feel free to visit <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">Art Of ApOgEE Blog</span> to see my arts and order some graphic design books</blockquote><br />And now we wanna link that blue "Art Of ApOgEE Blog" to <code>http://artofapogee.blogspot.com</code><br /><br />This is the simplest way. You just have to copy paste and no coding <img class="inline" src="http://coderstalk.googlepages.com/tongue.gif" />. Here's the step:<br /><br /><ol><li>Open up New Post on you blogger, select Edit Html and type the words there:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4nAe9RZiI/AAAAAAAAB5E/Qy1EznoNQPQ/s1600-h/new-post.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 297px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4nAe9RZiI/AAAAAAAAB5E/Qy1EznoNQPQ/s400/new-post.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403799492154713634" border="0" /></a><br /></li><li>Select the text we want to link and create the link:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4n2E02jbI/AAAAAAAAB5M/nvzGREkxtTc/s1600-h/create-link.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 311px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4n2E02jbI/AAAAAAAAB5M/nvzGREkxtTc/s400/create-link.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403800412853013938" border="0" /></a> Just follow the same way like we did in <a href="http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/2008/04/how-to-create-hyperlink-on-blogger-post.html" target="_blank">How to Create Hyperlink on Blogger Post</a>.<br /><br /></li><li>Select all text and copy:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4oiU0_zFI/AAAAAAAAB5U/rddFUbTsr_0/s1600-h/select-all-copy.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 313px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4oiU0_zFI/AAAAAAAAB5U/rddFUbTsr_0/s400/select-all-copy.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403801173062831186" border="0" /></a><br /></li><li>Open the Layout tab and Edit your header:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4qsXsFMZI/AAAAAAAAB5c/NUC-mw1eFSk/s1600-h/edit-header.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 167px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4qsXsFMZI/AAAAAAAAB5c/NUC-mw1eFSk/s400/edit-header.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403803544652689810" border="0" /></a><br /></li><li>Paste the copied text to your Blog Description and Save:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4rUS_LTKI/AAAAAAAAB5k/5TgvkeB4Iow/s1600-h/blog-description.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 371px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QmenDvyMjlk/Sv4rUS_LTKI/AAAAAAAAB5k/5TgvkeB4Iow/s400/blog-description.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403804230585371810" border="0" /></a><br /></li></ol><br />That's all, now you have the link on your Blogger Header Description.

However, you may wondering where to start. So here again, I'm going to share with you. How to begin Lisp Programming, "the programmable programming language".<br /><br />As, I'm using Ubuntu here, this example is shown step by step on Ubuntu. <br /><br />In order to start playing with Lisp on your ubuntu, you need to install CMUCL. CMUCL is a free implementation of Common Lisp which was originally developed at Carnegie Mellon University. To install CMUCL package, just run this command on your Ubuntu terminal:<br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ sudo apt-get install cmucl</pre><br />Next, we are going to feel the environment. Open up your terminal and type:<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">$ lisp</pre><br />You will be greeted by CMU Common Lisp with it version and loaded subsystem. In my case, I see like this.<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">apogee@apogee-ubuntu:~$ lisp<br />CMU Common Lisp CVS release-19a 19a-release-20040728 + minimal debian patches, running on apogee-ubuntu<br />With core: /usr/lib/cmucl/lisp.core<br />Dumped on: Fri, 2009-11-13 09:05:47+08:00 on apogee-ubuntu<br />For support see http://www.cons.org/cmucl/support.html Send bug reports to the debian BTS.<br />or to pvaneynd@debian.org<br />type (help) for help, (quit) to exit, and (demo) to see the demos<br /><br />Loaded subsystems:<br /> Python 1.1, target Intel x86<br /> CLOS based on Gerd's PCL 2004/04/14 03:32:47<br />* <br /></pre><br />As you can see the loaded subsystem is Python 1.1. This is not the Python as in <a href="http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/search/label/python">Python Programming</a>. Don't get confused. It is a native code compiler named "Python". If Common Lisp source code has been written with appropriate declarations and is organized with speed in mind, the Python compiler generates code that is almost free from overhead compared to code compiled from languages like C++. Some inefficiencies such as function call interfaces and lack of pointer-free arrays of user-defined data types are dictated by the Common Lisp standard and still need to be worked around (e.g. by inlining more and using macros to build constructs that look like user-defined structures but are actually accessing fields in preallocated specialized arrays). The Python compiler also features powerful type inferences, helping the programmer in writing overhead-free code by either inferring types automatically or issuing hints about missed optimization opportunities. <br /><br />Before doing anything else, you have to know how to exit from this environment. To exit from this lisp terminal, you can simply type <span style="font-weight:bold;">(quit)</span> and press enter.<br /><br /><pre id="linuxterm">apogee@apogee-ubuntu:~$ lisp<br />CMU Common Lisp CVS release-19a 19a-release-20040728 + minimal debian patches, running on apogee-ubuntu<br />With core: /usr/lib/cmucl/lisp.core<br />Dumped on: Fri, 2009-11-13 09:05:47+08:00 on apogee-ubuntu<br />For support see http://www.cons.org/cmucl/support.html Send bug reports to the debian BTS.<br />or to pvaneynd@debian.org<br />type (help) for help, (quit) to exit, and (demo) to see the demos<br /><br />Loaded subsystems:<br /> Python 1.1, target Intel x86<br /> CLOS based on Gerd's PCL 2004/04/14 03:32:47<br />* (quit)<br />apogee@apogee-ubuntu:~$ <br /></pre><br />Now you know how to start and end the CMU Common Lisp.

However, I can't escape from using it because there are instruments which I use that can only communicate with it's own proprietary windows program. <br /><br /><br />Love it or not, I still need these proprietary programs to run in the windows box on site because they don't have linux version of it nor even going to have it.<br /><br /><br />Leaving the windows box like that. I believe in some way, it will get infected when some user access the box to grab some data with their infected USB drive or there is virus in the network. It simply happened last two weeks on the site box where this virus prevent me to open the Windows Task Manager to show what process is running in the box.<br /><br /><br />Thanks to VBScript which allows me to view the running process and investigate. <br /><br /><br /><br />So, after getting frustated and cursing the virus prone OS for some time, I just open Notepad program and begin writing this script:<span class="fullpost"><br /><br /><br /><font color=black><pre dir="ltr" style="border: 1px inset rgb(0, 0, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 3px; overflow: auto; width: 98%; height: 300px; text-align: left; "><font color="#008000">'==========================================================='<br />' showproc.vbs<br />' Author: M.

And what make me more interested about it was, getting to know the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Android</span>, a new <span style="font-weight:bold;">open source operating system and software platform for mobile phones</span>. The Android is developed by Google, and later the Open Handset Alliance based on <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/search/label/linux">Linux kernel</a></span>. Google has made most of the Android platform available under the Apache free-software and open source license. <br /><br />The <span style="font-weight:bold;">Open Handset Alliance (OHA)</span> is a business alliance of 48 firms including Google, HTC, Intel, Motorola, Qualcomm, Samsung, LG, T-Mobile, NVIDIA, Sony Ericsson, ARM, AKM Semiconductor Inc, ASUSTek COmputer Inc, Atheros Communications, Borqs, Ericsson, Garmin International Inc, Wind River Systems, Huawei Technologies, Omron Software Co Ltd, Softbank Monile Corporation, Teleca AB, Toshiba Corporation and Vodafone that came together to develop open standards for mobile devices. The Android platform was announced on 5 November 2007 <span class="fullpost"> with the founding of the Open Handset Alliance. <br /><br />Now, mobile phone application developers are able to write <span style="font-weight:bold;">managed code</span> in the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Java language</span>, controlling the mobile device with Android via <span style="font-weight:bold;">Google-developed Java libraries</span>. If you are good in C or other <span style="font-weight:bold;">programming</span> languages, your applications written in C and other languages can be compiled to ARM native code and run. However, the other development path isn't officially supported by Google. <br /><br />And, here is a video from <span style="font-weight:bold;">Android</span> developer to get you more excited with this Android <img class='inline' src='http://coderstalk.googlepages.com/tongue.gif'/> :<br /><br /><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1FJHYqE0RDg&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1FJHYqE0RDg&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center><br /><br />Isn't it a WoooOOoW for you coders?... Let's get up, <a href="http://www.android.com/">grab the SDK</a> and develop great apps on Android. I would love to hear one of us entitled for those <span style="font-weight:bold;">TEN MILLION U.S. DOLLARS</span> for creating a great, useful, free and open source software on <span style="font-weight:bold;">Android platform</span>. <img class='inline' src='http://coderstalk.googlepages.com/sengih.gif'/><br /><br /><quote><span style="font-style:italic;">p/s: For all my Chinese friends and readers, I would like to wish you all a very Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year!!

BPS accepted Akira's recruitment after seeing the <span style="font-weight:bold;">discontinued X68 series doujinshi SCSI card</span> by Abin Electronics which was made at Iwasawa plant. Apart from that, there is another story of Misao-chan who somehow have an unknown relationship with Shirase. Now, let's watch this <span style="font-weight:bold;">Episode 2 of Battle Programmer Shirase</span>... <br /><br /><center><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7SOlmlxGC8w&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7SOlmlxGC8w&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object></center><br /><br />Hmm.. hope you like it.
