Now for a few weeks I’ve been talking about “innojagd” and I’ve posted about it and others have as well but what really is it all about? Thorsten captured a little bit about it on video at the Frankfurt SAPPHIRE NOW event but I thought I should dust off the old “Starship Enterprisey” lens and gear and put this little video together with my thoughts specifically for all of you egHeads out there.
Will the battle of HTML5 vs. Browser Plug-Ins be like this:
Or More Like This:
This week we welcome guest co-host Dan McWeeney filling in for Ed. Ed is out of the office because his wife just gave birth to their first child. Since Dan works for Adobe and works in the Adobe Flash/Flex world, we thought it would be the perfect podcast to dive into the hot topic of HTML5 verses Browser Plug-Ins (like Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight).
There has been a lot of debate lately (sparked largely by Apple and their refusal to have the Adobe Flash Plug-in on the iPhone/iPad) about exactly what the future role of Browser Plug-Ins will be given the advances that the next version of the HTML specification promises to bring. In this podcast both Dan and I provide our thoughts on the topic.
Dearest eGheads, we need your show ideas. If you have questions, suggestions, or topic ideas for future episodes, give us a shout here. Enjoy!
24:00 NetWeaver Business Client and Windows-Only Support
26:45 Platform Testing
28:00 – Apple and their 40 Billion Cash On Hand – Who Will They Buy? (at the time of the podcast recording I forgot that through Pixar, Steve Jobs picked up quite a bit of control at Disney/ABC/Marvel. Perhaps Apple already indirectly has the control in Hollywood I thought they were looking for).
Two more interviews I got to do in Phoenix focused around innovation at SAP the first was with Denis Browne from the SAP Imagineering group (where Ed and Dan did a fellowship) and we got to talk about the possible future of the Enterprise and how we interact with our traditional ERP systems (video here) and the second was with Claus von Riegen from SAP in Germany around Open Innovation, Open Source and technology standards (video here)
This year the SAP TechEd decided to create something new called “Live from SAP TechEd” which was a series of live broadcasts which took place during the event in Phoenix and then again Vienna. Yours truly was one of the people doing those interviews and I wanted to share some of those with all of you eGheads out there!
To catch me and Thomas talking Next Generation ABAP in Phoenix just follow the link…
I’ve been a bit slack on posting this and it’s partially because I didn’t want to actually share with the world the awesomeness that has been the RIA Hacker Night 2009 so far! But I guess I better at least give everyone a taste of what they missed out so far.
Many of you probably know this already but the Enterprise Geeks decided to reach deep and sponsor the event this year together with some others…
So we were in great company and of course had a great time with so many great eGheads while in Phoenix and Vienna – Bangalore is next!
Due to technical issues with the service I was using in Phoenix I was not able to save the live stream however Vienna was a different issue and the above is about 3 hours of Hacker Night goodness!
