| 11-15-11 / 01:32 AM : AdSense : review and alternatives (cjed) |
| As Google closes AdSense accounts without prior message and blocks all gains in case of incorrects clicks detected (also gains before these), and that claim request does not lead to account restore in most cases (and do not provide any hints, see here), some are reporting doubts on this service (see here), as it happened for accounts that were close to the payment treeshold (that is also higher than initially). Moreover we can't open a new account once a previous one has been closed. We can however find many alternatives (see also here and there). There is also to note that Google provides free Ad Words gifts, however the user then agrees to pay for additional amount in case of many clicks (above the provided amount). |

| 11-10-11 / 12:44 AM : End of Flash and Silverlight, CSS shaders (cjed) |
| As supposed since 2009, Adobe announced the end of Flash (at least the mobile version for now) and Microsoft may release the last version of Silverlight, as both are now focusing to HTML5. Adobe indeed submitted CSS shaders proposal to W3C FX task force. These would allow to apply vertex shaders and fragment shaders to any HTML element of a page, instead being limited to the WebGL's Canvas container element (its content). |

| 11-10-11 / 12:16 AM : Facebook acquired Strobe (cjed) |
| Following its buyout of Sofa, creator of Aristo theme for Cappuccino (and EnStore solution), Facebook acquired Strobe, the company founded by the creator of SproutCore since he left Apple. With skills now in HTML5 frameworks besides design, it shouldn't be difficult to do better than Google Plus. |
