Sobees Tackles LinkedIn In Powerful New Clients, Android App To Launch Soon	The evolution of Twitter clients have been speeding along. While Twitter is the fundamental platform that formed a base for many applications, such as TweetDeck, Seesmic, PeopleBrowsr and Sobees, these platforms soon looked to other social networks such as Facebook, MySpace and FriendFeed for additional integration. And many have conquered all mediums, with desktop, web and mobile apps. In fact, the Twitter client race has gradually become a competition to be the first to launch useful and powe...

appendTo Aims To Commercialize jQuery Javascript Library	jQuery is a Javascript library that is used in a large number of web applications and is popular amongst web application developers. It was launched in 2006 by John Resig, and immediately gained a large following due to its lightweight nature and design philosophy. jQuery allows developers to build Javascript web applications easily by abstracting many of the complexities and difficulties.

Seesmic’s founder and CEO Loic Le Meur made the announcement today at Microsoft’s Professional Developer Conference in Los Angeles.

Yahoo Loses Yet Another Senior Executive	I corrected the headline for one of the articles I published earlier today about an investment made by Bassel Ojjeh in ArabCrunch.NET. Turns out Ojjeh is actually no longer senior vice president and head of Yahoo!’s strategic data solutions group. The man apparently left the company a few weeks ago but hadn’t yet found the time to change his LinkedIn profile. Bassel Ojjeh started his career in the software business as developer and later senior manager of Fox Software, which merged with...	November 10, 2009

Sobees Latest Horse To Enter The Twitter / Facebook Desktop Client Race	For a while now, we’ve been tracking a number of companies who are hard at work trying to build the ultimate social networking desktop app. We’ve talked about TweetDeck, Twhirl / Seesmic Desktop, AlertThingy, and there are many more especially if you also include the ones that focus only on Twitter (Tweetie, Nambu, Twitterific, etc.). Another horse in this race that barely gets a mention is Sobees, probably in big part because of the fact it’s only available for Windows users ...	May 09, 2009
Microsoft Shows Off The Power Of Facebook’s New APIs	Earlier this week Facebook made the landmark (and long-awaited) announcement that it was going to enable the “Open Stream“, granting developers far more access and flexibility to Facebook data than they had before. To commemorate the event, Facebook held a special Technology Tasting at its Palo Alto office, where it gave everyone an idea of exactly what developers could do with the new data. We saw some impressive demos, including an example from Plaxo of how social sites could sym...	May 01, 2009
April Fools: YouTube Flails, Amazon Cloud Computing In A Blimp, 3D Chrome Browsing, Google Masters A.I.	Wow. April Fools Is In full swing. The Guardian goes all Twitter, ditching the printed version and the website. “Experts say any story can be told in 140 characters.” Amazon launches a brand new cloud computing service called Floating Amazon Cloud Environment, or FACE. “The FACE uses durable, unmanned helium-filled blimps with a capacity of 65,536 small EC2 instances, or a proportionate number of larger instances. The top of each blimp is coated in polycrystalline solar cells ...	April 01, 2009
Microsoft Research: A Look At The Intriguing Social Desktop Prototype	Late last week, Microsoft Research shared a couple of things about Social Desktop, a prototype of which they are debuting at TechFest 2009 in a couple of days (along with dozens of other things). From the looks of it, this will be a much talked about product even if it stays in proof-of-concept phase for now. And if they decide to open it up even just a little, this could be a major breakthrough in tearing down the virtual wall between the desktop and the web, a trend we’ve been noticing ...
