Probably as one of the last really cool things for the year 2011, our company Job and Esther Technologies was awarded as a winner in the Red Herring Global Top 100 competition earlier this month. Red Herring claims a good track record of spotting the best upcoming great companies, having successfully spotted Google, Facebook, Skype and the likes in the past, before they became big and well-known. While having won the award obviously is no certain sign of great success, it is nevertheless a great honor to be recognized in this manner.

This morning, as I was reading the news, I was refreshed to notice that as big a company as HP has adopted a vision that seems to be following in the same direction that we have been charting. As published on linuxdevices.com, the HP CEO Leo Apotheker was quoted as putting forward the following strategy for HP devices ..

Yesterday I read a blog post of Fabrizio Capobianco where he stated that your tablet will never be a laptop. While I sincerely do agree with this, and since it is of course very clearly true (tablet is not a laptop, obviously), I think there should still be more to this topic than meets the eye.

I am Finnish, and I am professionally involved in the mobile software industry. That gives me a doubled interest in following the recent activities surrounding Nokia's top management. As the latest development, as was announced yesterday, Mr. Ari Jaaksi has now resigned from Nokia (the original news in Finnish). In my outsider perspective and perception, I always identified Jaaksi with Maemo (turned Meego) and all other Nokia's open source activities. He was always the open source speaker in conferences and the prominent visible open source person coming out of Nokia.

I used to be subscribed to Gervase Markham's blog "Hacking for Christ" for quite a long time. Gerv is actually one of the prominent developers of the Mozilla project and seems to focus much on web technologies and specifically Mozilla development. Now, truth be told, I personally don't actually have much of any interest in the details of Mozilla development. But I stayed subscribed to the blog because of its name. I just found it very appealing that he is indeed "Hacking for Christ".
