Editor's Notes
- [twitter]I’m giving an Ignite-style talk this very moment about web opportunities for the iPad at SXSW. http://bit.ly/c1pscW[/twitter]
- [twitter]For more info on the script I’m using to tweet while presenting, see http://bit.ly/bP72H8 [/twitter]
- [twitter]So what if there are no new browser bells and whistles for the iPad browser, at least we won’t spend years asking for png support. ;-)[/twitter]
- [twitter]iPad specs 9.7 screen. 1024 by 768 pixel resolution at 132 pixels per inch. Web sites designed for 1024 should look fine at both orientations. [/twitter]
- [twitter]Changewave says people most interested in buying the low end WiFi and high-end machines. http://bit.ly/9mBLnG[/twitter]
- [twitter]My theory: form factor means more Wi-Fi usage than the iPhone. ATT CEO says iPad Wi-Fi driven http://bit.ly/a1FnTv[/twitter]
- [twitter]Camera, Compass, GPS are less important on iPad than iPhone because iPhone is always with you and well, there is no camera.[/twitter]
- [twitter]More on hybrid apps check out PhoneGap http://bit.ly/caE1OL, Titanium http://bit.ly/ac5JSJ, RhoMobile http://bit.ly/c90uJ9, and book http://bit.ly/b1fz2F [/twitter]
- [twitter]The big change from iPhone to iPad isn’t size. It is the promise of content creation instead of merely media consumption.[/twitter]
- [twitter]Ok, so it isn’t an iPad dashboard, but it is amazing, cool and built with webkit http://bit.ly/bMkxfQ [/twitter]
- [twitter]Highly-recommend article from Craig Mod on Books in the Age of the iPad http://bit.ly/d7Ee9H [/twitter]
- [twitter]Will more people read vs scan on the iPad? If someone is reading, does vertical scrolling provide the best reading exp?[/twitter]
- [twitter]Device detection http://bit.ly/bkwBFv YSlow http://bit.ly/aQGYkG HTML5 Forms http://bit.ly/95UCgR http://bit.ly/56zmKK [/twitter] [twitter]Is it safe to assume that if someone can write a word doc on an iPad that they can complete a shopping cart purchase? If so, why pay Apple 30%?[/twitter]
- [twitter]That’s my four minutes. Thanks for listening. And for those not at the session, sorry for the deluge of tweets. :-)[/twitter]
