Video: Ben and Dion Present at Stanford 6

by Robert Werlinger Tue, 27 Apr 2010 12:39 pm EDT

 

Since joining Palm back in September, Ben Galbraith and Dion Almaer have really been accomplishing a lot (dare I say kicking ass?) in roles as Directors of Developer Relations.  In addition to the Developer Day (where at, of course, and will be keeping you up to date on the latest happenings) and the on-going podcast series, the two have been giving a 10 week crash course on the future of the web and mobile at a little college in Palo Alto called Stanford University.  The school, along with Palm, are making the videos available online for your learning pleasure.  Currently on week two class, the first class gives a higher-level overview of mobile and the mobile Web, and the latest video covers some HTML/CSS/JavaScript fundementals (you know, the technologies you need to build applications using Palm's SDK.)

So while you're kicking yourself for not heading to Sunnyvale this past weekend, cue up the Stanford videos (which are about 50 minutes in length) and get your learn on.

This doesn't make sense. Do you mean we're at?

This is great. Forget the economic climate of the company, and keep on reaching out again and again. I love Palm's take on mobile computing.

So, you know, we love webOS on the east coast also!

I say palm hire about 150 developers to exclusively make apps for their catalog! In house!! Honor app ideas from the app idea box application and some suggested on precentral. Get this ball really rollin. Like seriously! Because it's been almost a year and we have not even reached 5,000 apps. Or 1,000 GREAT apps. There's about maybe 850 great apps. Won't name none but you can fill in the xyz's
