Lately, I've been working on various projects over this entire year, but I haven't forgot about the predictions from last year.

December 20th, 2010 at 7:00am — Comments: (0) — By: Jonathan Danylko — Tags: General

It's that time of year again when everyone tries to figure out the direction of technology. Which way are we going?

But before we get to the 2011 predictions, we need to look back over the past year in technology for the results.

This has definitely been a great year for technology and it seems every year keeps hitting a bigger stride in the technology industry. Tablets, Cloud computing, and mobile operating systems were the latest trend this year.

If you've been developing web sites for a while and keep up with the web, you may have noticed a recent upheaval with the IT industry regarding updating browsers...specifically Internet Explorer 6 (IE6).

Heck, I thought Microsoft had this taken care of with their updating process through Windows.

You will be missed, Randy Pausch

Randy Pausch passed away recently (Oct. 23, 1960 - July 25, 2008)

July 29th, 2008 at 9:00am — Comments: (0) — By: Jonathan Danylko — Tags: General

For those who haven't heard of this fantastic speaker, Randy Pausch was a Carnegie Mellon Professor and was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. His doctor said that he was expected to live around 3-6 months.

When he gave his "Last Lecture" on September 18, 2007, he focused on Achieving your Childhood Dreams instead of talking about his cancer.

His lecture is nothing short of monumental and is something everyone should watch and absorb. If you take his perspective on life, I guarantee you will be successful.

Since I've been working at my full-time job (with overtime), working on two products, four websites, and continuing to work with my existing 15 clients, I've been trying to make time for DCS Media.

Unfortunately, there is only so much time in a day.

I will be taking a short hiatus from blogging. This includes Fireday as well.

What's the difference between an RSS feed and an EMail?

February 13th, 2008 at 7:00am — Comments: (0) — By: Jonathan Danylko — Tags: General

I've recently received an email from an individual asking me why I'd use an RSS feed as opposed to a regular email?

I've been using RSS since I've started my Micro ISV blog, but for those who don't know what an RSS feed is, I'll refer you to my Beginner's Guide To RSS.

Using a blog system, whether it's WordPress, TypePad, or Blogger, when a new article or post is published, the system automatically generates an RSS feed of your latest posts to an XML file. Your audience uses their Feed Reader to read that file and translate the format into something readable.
