<p>It seems that a new <em>war</em> started out there. Google launched the <a href="http://code.google.com/appengine/">Google AppEngine</a> platform, supporting <a href="http://www.python.org">Python</a> and <a href="http://www.djangoproject.com/">Django</a> out of the box.</p> <p>On they <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/list">Google project</a> page, people started to &#8220;vote&#8221; for the next language to be implemented. It seems that the more &#8220;stars&#8221; a language has, the more attention it will get from Google.</p> <p>So pick your favorite programming language, and &#8220;star&#8221; it on the issue list!</p> <p>(oh and if you don&#8217;t have a favorite language, pick Ruby :-))</p> 97 google-appengine-next-move-perl-ruby-java-or-php 2008-04-10T10:28:00-07:00 <p>I recently developed a website that has a real <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security">SSL</a> area protected by a real valid <span class="caps">SSL</span> certificate.</p> <p>However, I was getting complaints that, under <span class="caps">SSL</span>, browsers croaked about some parts being sent over an insecure connection.</p> <p>I dug on the situation and found that because I was using <a href="http://www.google.com/analytics/">Google Analytics</a>, the <code>&lt;script&gt;</code> URL is <code>HTTP</code> under the <span class="caps">SSL</span> area. To get it working under <span class="caps">SSL</span> areas just change the <span class="caps">URL</span>:</p> <p><strong>Under <span class="caps">SSL</span></strong>: <code>&lt;script src="https://ssl.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" ...</code></p> <p><strong>Out of <span class="caps">SSL</span></strong>: <code>&lt;script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" ...</code></p> <p>solved :-)</p> 79 google-analytics-and-ssl-site 2007-12-18T04:14:18-08:00 <form mt:asset-id="30" class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image"><img alt="logo_android.gif" src="http://blog.0x82.com/logo_android.gif" width="153" height="55" class="mt-image-left" style="float: left; margin: 0 20px 20px 0;"/></form> <p>Mark this day on your calendar! Google finally <a href="http://code.google.com/android/">launched the Android <span class="caps">SDK</span></a>. I was impressed with the feature set: Linux Kernel 2.6, FreeType, SQLite, OpenGL, WebKit and a optimized Java byte code interpreter!! Opensource geeks, rejoice! :-)</p> <p>There is an excellent <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=Mm6Ju0xhUW8">video</a> where the <span class="caps">API</span> is explained in good details. Maybe my Internet connectivity is having problems, but I had a hard time just to download the movie (I didn&#8217;t even try to watch it in real time).</p> <p>I&#8217;m curious about the modifications made by Google to the standard Linux Kernel, for instance, how do they optimize it for mobile (and possible real time) usage. At the same time, Google announced <a href="http://code.google.com/android/adc.html">big quantities of money</a> for the best applications for the Android! Kudos for Google! Can&#8217;t wait for a phone with Android&#8230;</p> 70 android-sdk-on-the-wild 2007-11-12T14:10:30-08:00 <p>... yeahhhhhh :-D &#8230;.</p> 65 imap-on-gmail-finally 2007-11-02T03:52:37-07:00 <p>As it is <a href="http://digg.com/software/Gmail_gets_IMAP">well known</a>, Google started to offer free <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imap">IMAP</a> access to their excellent <a href="http://www.gmail.com">GMail</a> service. Of course they say that it take a while to roll out the new feature to every account, but I am (impatiently) waiting for more than a week now, and no signs of <span class="caps">IMAP</span> on my account.</p> <p>Guess I&#8217;ll have to just wait&#8230;</p> 63 no-gmail-imap-yet 2007-10-29T12:34:30-07:00
