Google today launched the Google Apps Referral Program in the US and Canada. The referral program lets you share Google Apps with other businesses, and pocket a $15 bonus for each new user that signs up. "What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?"

Quote: By the way, they're charging money for this API!
What mistakes does this API make, then?
1. Passwords are stored in plain text.
2. The app can see all users it has registered, without any clear reason.
3. The key is sent over the network.
4. The API can return plain text passwords, for no clear reason.
5. The data is all sent in plain text.
6. There is no concept of auth/deauth for the app - it always has access to users it registered.
Oh and they were warned about the problem back in 2010.

Microsoft's work continues unabated on a new Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler to replace what is currently in use with the .NET Framework. The compiler's (codenamed RyuJIT) latest CTP demonstrates significant improvement over both the first preview release and the current JIT compiler (JIT64) that is in production use. "I still don't have what it takes. I must train harder."

I thought it was named for the character in Street Fighter, but I suppose acronym is possible.

A Team of US researchers at UC Berkeley conducted a study on the HTTPS traffic analysis of ten widely used HTTPS-secured Web sites with surprising results. The 'S' is for 'Sort of secure'

Following reports that Britain’s GCHQ had intercepted data being transmitted between Google datacenters, Schmidt said that the company’s resulting security upgrade had left him “Pretty sure that information within Google is now safe from any government’s prying eyes.” And I'm "pretty sure" he wouldn't know one way or the other

Speaking today at the SXSW conference, Google's SVP of Android and Chrome Sundar Pichai said that in two weeks, Google will be releasing a developer SDK that will make it easier for companies to create wearable devices that run on Android. "You are fully functional, aren't you?"

Finally? They've been out in front of the wearable device thing for awhile with Glass.

Of course what they're not saying is that the reason dingleberry users never need to top off their battery midday is that there aren't any 3rd party apps available that could use battery charge up in the first place.

An interactive map of the developer journey, helping developers make the
right tool choices to reduce costs, increase revenue and capture new markets. "Far to the east, over ranges and rivers, beyond woodlands and wastelands, lies a single solitary peak."

I found it useless - more like a categorized list of tools that are in...
It also lacks any connection between different areas of development, in reality you can't choose one tool without examining its connection to others...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

This category is, itself, divided into two major camps: native tools and those that favor cross-platform development. For the most part, the former tools generate apps that look completely native, while the latter provide a good experience, but lack the ability to use the exact native look-and-feel and frequently cannot access all the device features available to native apps. However, cross-platform tools have the distinct advantage of portability: one code base, multiple app platforms. Great tools phone it in
