Site News
Our Virtual Tech Summits have been very popular with members so we're happy to say that today we have released the first of many archives of previous Tech Summits for viewing at your leisure.
Our Mobile Development Summit was last November and focussed on iPhone, Windows Phone 7 and Android. The videos for each can be viewed on the Summit archive page as an article in itself, meaning you can rate, comment, bookmark each video. For the archives we are currently only supporting devices that support flash (sorry iPhone users) but will be adding other formats to the archives soon.
Our next Tech summit will be on HTML5 / CSS3 development on May 25. We limit space to ensure the quality of the videos is as high as possible so register early.
cheers,
Chris Maunder
