Congrats!
Are they just tinkering around with it, or do you think they might actually build something shareable?

It's pretty comprehensive. It looks like they really will be offering something shareable.

Yes, my son and I just started playing with it too - great fun.

You can get beta keys from JoinProjectSpark.com[^] - the designer requires Windows 8.1 and is currently quite restricted....but the "brain designer" AI writing tool is actually quite a lot of fun.

Mobile strategy and solutions company Mokriya is trying to help by launching MobileInsights, a series of free guides aimed at streamlining the way businesses recruit mobile development firms. Almost as good as selling an app? Writing guides about how to sell an app.

Microsoft's Windows team may share its high-level plans for its next-generation Windows "Threshold" release at its upcoming Build developers show, according to a new sourced report. Hopefully not on the first
|

"Threshold will include updates to all three Windows OS platforms (Xbox One, Windows, and Windows Phone) that will advance them in a way to share even more common elements"
Why the elephant do they continue to think that that's a good thing and that the users want it? Did no one teach them "use the right tool for the right job"?

The analyst believes Elop as CEO and Nadella as CTO would be the best combination for Microsoft's future.

The startup's recruitment failed because the Google programmer was already making $3 million with restricted stock.
How do you work for Google, again?

Playing him or paying him? There's a big difference.

Whoops...that should say "paying him." My bad guys.

I wish I had that kind of problem.

I wonder what this guy does that no one else can do, because $3 million is an insane salery for a programmer. Even programmers who've written AAA game engines don't earn anywhere near that.

When it comes to gadgets, the Consumer Electronics Show is generally about showing off. There are of course exceptions, but most of the tech seen at CES is too gimmicky to sell to a broad set of consumers. This year, as usual, a few companies stood out for all the wrong reasons. The new stuff isn't all iPhones and VCRs
