Yahoo! announced the early preview of its Mobile Developer Platform, a one-stop solution for developers to create mobile-optimized applications that are easy to build, quick to deploy, and run across a wide selection of devices, thus making it much easier for Internet content and services to “go mobile.” By providing developers with tools to write code once and efficiently publish their content instantly across hundreds of devices – accessible by hundreds of millions of users - Yahoo!’s Mobile Developer Platform is expected to usher in a dramatic acceleration in the adoption of mobile services by creating an explosion of new choices for the consumer.
These powerful and graphically rich mobile applications – called Yahoo! Mobile Widgets - enable consumers to design their own ideal Internet experiences, by letting users choose which of their favorite Internet content and services to put on their phone – whether from Yahoo! or any other provider. Consumers will choose Mobile Widgets from a growing selection available via the Yahoo!
Widget Gallery – accessible from Yahoo!’s new mobile home page, Yahoo! Go 3.0, and Yahoo! oneSearch, consumers can add and delete mobile widgets anytime to make sure their phone reflects their own unique needs & personality.
This week, consumers will be able to access the first third-party widgets built on this new platform, from launch partners including eBay, MySpace and MTV. Yahoo! ultimately expects thousands of new mobile widgets to be added as developers begin writing to this new platform.
“Yahoo! is leading and enabling the mobile ecosystem by partnering with some of the most recognized consumer brands, including eBay, MySpace and MTV further extending their mobile presence and providing mobile consumers with the content they desire,” said Marco Boerries, executive vice president, Connected Life, Yahoo!. “By providing all developers access to our Mobile Widget Platform and giving them the necessary tools to create, we are setting the stage for dramatic growth in the number of third party widgets and creating an innovative new experience that we believe will ultimately drive further adoption of mobile services.”
Yahoo! Mobile Widgets run on devices that support the new Yahoo! Go 3.0 client or the new Yahoo! mobile home page (visit mobile.yahoo.com/newsroom for announcements). Over the coming months, the number of compatible devices is expected to expand substantially and begin to roll out internationally.
Leading mobile device manufacturers including LG Electronics and Motorola are collaborating to make Yahoo! Mobile Widgets widely available on multiple devices. ACCESS, a global provider of advanced mobile software technologies, is also in early discussions to support Yahoo!'s Mobile Widget platform. The combined efforts of Yahoo! and these partners is expected to continue to drive the mobile industry forward by making compelling content from the greater Internet more accessible to consumers worldwide.
More details on the Yahoo! Mobile Widget Platform, including first-generation specifications for creating Yahoo! Mobile Widgets can be found at mobile.yahoo.com/developers.
Over the coming weeks, Yahoo! plans to introduce a full-featured software development kit for developers, offering guidelines and tools for creating, testing and submitting widgets.

Recent acquisition, still have to develop the first roll of film I put through it. I want to develop it myself so it's taking awhile to verify the camera is in working condition. Stay tuned!

Beginning in 1932, a new series of Morgan three-wheelers began with the F-4. The F-4, and its later siblings the F-2 and the F-Super, used a pressed-steel chassis and the four-cylinder Ford Sidevalve engine that was used in the Model Y. Production of the Ford-engined three-wheelers continued until 1952.

My cute little headphone amplifier. Two OPA134 op-amps, a split rail mains PSU, laser engraved perspex panels in a Hammond extruded aluminium enclosure.
Here you can see the D40x sensor with its IR blocking filter removed. Without this filter, and without an IR passing filter, the D40x now records both IR and Visible light.
My OM-2 with the Zuiko 16mm f3.5 Fisheye. I hope to get some good results with this camera, I just got the mirror unstuck (it had been sitting in disuse for a long time). Added some new batteries and it appears to function perfectly well, going to put some film through it and see how it performs!

Why is it naked you ask? Well, tonight when I went to shoot some shots of the delicious dessert, none of the back buttons worked. Thankfully taking it apart and putting it back together seemed to fix it. So the camera isn't broken after all. Yay! :)

This camera even with the 80 MM lens takes some effort to hold. Looks like the tripod will get some face time

This Camera was in the lost &found in the Orderly Room when I was in the service. No one ever claimed it so when I went on one of my first trips, I took it with me. I never did learn what the settings meant so often took a few shots. Most everything came out okay and think I wound up with a good selection of slides. Even had a leather carrying case. When I left for home, decided to bring it with me as no had yet claimed it.
