And what’s also cool is most of these are either designed for, or play well on a netbook.
It also seems AppUp has become a hot spot for retro style games, so I could not resist providing my list of my 12 favorite retro style games available on Intel’s AppUp Center store. Many of these can be owned for the price a few hours at the arcade. And if you want to play the classics, I also list a few of my classic arcade favorites available in the store. Download the AppUp Center client to get access to these cool games

If you heard much of the news from Computex or IDF this year you know that MeeGo is the new kid on the block with a lot of expectation on what kinds of devices we will see running MeeGo as well as how Intel will support MeeGo with AppUp.

Lots of cool stuff to see here at AdobeMAX. The first day was focused on how you get apps to work across multiple screens and devices. We saw some amazing tools and techniques from Adobe to intelligently adjust templates and apps to use the same c… Read more
If you want to get started developing MeeGo applications your best bet is probably to get up to speed with Qt. To get the full scoop and resources on Qt visit Nokia’s Qt site and participate in the QT community.
