@palewar No one touches commercial PHP code without being *trained* at sanisosft even today in reply to palewar #
@palewar Whoa! That is a negative attitude!! The market is very big and #Nagpur can be a good center for mobile dev with enough for all in reply to palewar #
@Ramblinggeek Don't blame the education scenario for what you could have remedied #Nagpur is no different in reply to Ramblinggeek #

@palewar just lk the fact that thr alrdy R x^n ppl doing iPhone dev in the world & sum alrdy in #Nagpur hasn't deterred us. U can do it 2!!! in reply to palewar #
@sshreyas That is outright abuse of power in reply to sshreyas #

Jenny Aker: Mobile Phones for Development—Hope vs. Hype http://bit.ly/9rEcpN #
+1 RT @adityamooley: @tusharvjoshi IMO, long drive is also not a good option. Driving and listening to her can be dangerous. #
The incredibly iridescent Superb Starling http://is.gd/cC1eA #photography Fav it or comment on it ! #
Excellent resource!! RT @adityamooley: Get to the point -> http://www.amasso.info #iphone #
@sukhi_c Kindle != iPad but if you want to read eBooks outdoors Kindle beats iPad. Also Kindle is much cheaper. Try the kindle app 4 iPad in reply to sukhi_c #
@sukhi_c I do buy a lot of ebooks but I don't like DRM protected books…. What aspect of the ebooks? in reply to sukhi_c #
@sukhi_c I use Kindle on iPad for reading all books bought from Amazon and iBooks for reading other stuff >> in reply to sukhi_c #
@sukhi_c >> the experience is the same…. BTW take a look at Calibre for converting books to epub format. in reply to sukhi_c #
@sukhi_c No Did not hear good things about twitterific for #ipad in reply to sukhi_c #
@louiswu Dude Isn't that twisted logic – the thing to see would be do they validate as HTML 5? If yes then is it safari's fault? in reply to louiswu #
@sukhi_c oh! well then let me try it… in reply to sukhi_c #
@palewar The complexity of bird identification is a scientific minefield. I tried making a web app for http://nagpurbirds.org 2 mch effort in reply to palewar #
@palewar for getting just the 284 birds found in Nagpur correctly identified in reply to palewar #
@fox2mike Yes something like continue with downgraded performance would be perfect BTW try changing the User Agent in FF and see in reply to fox2mike #
@t3rmin4t0r One of the first things I did in reply to t3rmin4t0r #
@louiswu You side track and want to debate on the semantics of *open* ? in reply to louiswu #
@tusharvjoshi Recognsing birds is more difficult an algorithm than recognising faces – at the end of it all faces look alike @palewar #
@palewar app which i wld B more interested – something which records observations on a bird watching trip & submits 2 http://migrantwatch.in in reply to palewar #
@palewar Well the first few apps will probably never have #sanisoft or #fastions – we are developers for developers and thus NDA and blah… in reply to palewar #
@tusharvjoshi @palewar I have the datastructure and algo for something like http://is.gd/cCad6 somewhere – common birds is fine…. #
@sukhi_c trying twitterific on your recommendation – so far so good… in reply to sukhi_c #
@Rohneet even if he is not on Twitter – you have put it on record for all future employers to see. May very well come back and bite you in reply to Rohneet #
@geetanjalid Thankd for the #FF recco #Nagpur in reply to geetanjalid #
@qtfan Nanded? Exam or inspection? in reply to qtfan #
@palewar #fastions is a sister concern of #sanisoft – Every time I start something I hear a grave voice saying "Main samay hoon!!" in reply to palewar #
@palewar The site is for birds of North America… in reply to palewar #
@palewar You can't really have a popular open source #iPhone app with the same development dynamics – thanks to the App store in reply to palewar #
@palewar Heh! #fastions is just a legal entity office not yet functional even the website just has coming soon in reply to palewar #
@palewar Unless I figure out how to go about the OS way for #iPhone I don't want to start a project in reply to palewar #
@qtfan Ah! nice – convey congratulations – he had mentioned… in reply to qtfan #
Yes there are real people like Alan of Two and a half men. #fact #
@AgentAkki The Charlies I would like to meet in reply to AgentAkki #
@sukhi_c Hey I just downloaded Stanza eBook reader, has more features than iBook and can download from free sources too – try it. in reply to sukhi_c #
@indraprabha If I found a Charlie he would be my hero! Too many Alans around in reply to indraprabha #
Blog post: My top 10 #iPad gripes http://is.gd/cDmrY #

Duh! I had forgotten that #flickr can utilise IPTC data for title, description as well as keywords. #
