How HTML5 and Google Gears are Changing The Web presented by Dimitri Glaskov
Just a year ago, it was unheard of. Now, it’s a reality: a SQL server instance, running inside of your browser. Threading and isolation
model. Cross-origin XMLHttpRequest. Finally, the browser is becoming the user agent for building first-class applications. Join us in
exploring the new HTML5 specification with some freshly baked code and trying to glean the future of Web.

After the candidate nominations meeting, the secretary will send the list of candidates to members via e-mail. Members may write in other candidates for office on this ballot. Ballots not returned within 15 days will indicate a vote in favor of the slate as submitted by the nominating committee. A simple majority of returned and non-returned ballots are required for approval of the officers.
Disclaimer: I am the current Membership board member who is shamelessly asking you to join us.
We have attractive people and we give stuff away to members. What’s not to like?

You’ve heard me mention the social bookmarking tool
Delicious aka “Del.icio.us” for a long time now but I’ve failed to mention
another tool called Ma.gnolia. Magnolia is a web-based place for you to save all of
your web page favorites or bookmarks. Not only that, but you can see what
others are saving that may pique your interest enough to link or go there
yourself. Choose a topic such as “Linux Ubuntu” and discover links you never
knew existed. Warning: this is addictive and allows you to web surf in a much more
overwhelming way!
Got a favorite hobby or search item? Join a group dedicated
to just that. In there you can have others suggest bookmarks/websites that they
feel are relevant to you and realize more there as well.
Magnolia gives you the tools to import and export your
favorites from your browser automagically and even import from Delicious.
So why not use Ma.gnolia when it is prettier than Delicious?
Choice. Preference. Right now I use Magnolia as a backup and may go back on
occasion just to see improvements but this is a real fine web application for
anyone who wants to get their bookmarks organized and find out what is hot.
On Mondays here at Techno Mojo, I want to highlight mobile applications that have good “mobile mojo”. I’m looking for mobile apps that are not handset specific such as third party iPhone apps or only works on the Nokia 65 series phones. They must be somewhat universal. I’m also looking for interaction with others via text or MMS.
Add your suggestions to the comments and let’s see what you can come up with!
Today, I want to showcase a few social media wallpapers provided by lirontocker. Download them free to your phone from Flickr.
