Developer Links – 14-06-2009
App School – Damien Mulley and the Collisons are running a (somewhat pricey) introduction to iPhone development course. Will be interesting to see what sort of takeup they get; best of luck to them!
The Grand Plan – Article in the Times from Patrick Collison on how he thinks Ireland should be investing in technology. I’m not convinced
Mark Zuckerberg talks about Facebook as a platform – Robert Scoble interviews Mark Zuckerberg on his new Building 43 site.
Hemlock – This is an XMPP-based framwork, replacing AJAX for real time updates. Very interesting.
MySQL Meetup Dublin – Echolibre are hosting a MySQL meetup, I signed up but (un)fortunately will be in France at the time, so my space should be up for grabs soon.
