    News, Veera Prateepchaikul, Published on 29/10/2012

    » If in any way red-shirt firebrand Jatuporn Promphan is lucky in love, he is certainly not lucky in politics. For the third time in a row, he has been left out in the cold after his name did not appear in the latest cabinet lineup, unlike his red shirt partner, Nattawut Saikuar, whose political path seems to be littered with rose petals.

    News, Published on 08/11/2012

    » Re: "In defence of Danes", (PostBag Nov 7). I stand corrected by GMT. Apologies to all Danes _ absolutely no slur intended. Still, my point had nothing to do with nationality but with the need for justice to be done.

    Keeping pace with the tech

    Life, James Hein, Published on 14/11/2012

    » With the continued rush to bring out new applications and new technology the rate of change is leaving more and more people behind. The youngest are growing up using their parents' tablets and smartphones to play games instead of going outside to play. Those a couple of years older are already on child-orientated chat rooms, developing more advanced online skills. The under-20s are fluent in thumb-typing, chat abbreviations, emoticons, creating avatars and pretending to be someone they aren't. Those aged below 30 are more likely to be accessing the internet with a mobile device and may not even have a fixed phone line at home.

    Paid applications market growing at healthy rate

    Life, James Hein, Published on 12/12/2012

    » Your app store needs more developers. According to the analysis firm Canalys about half of the money paid out is to about 25 developers both in the Apple and Google worlds. Given that there are over 700,000 apps to choose from this means that most people miss out. Most of the top earners are game developers like Rovio, Electronic Arts and the like. The stand out non-game developer was Pandora selling the obviously popular Pandora radio app that supports the personalised music experience. So as usual it is the developers with the brand name behind them that get the money and it is difficult for a new player to break into the market. Not unexpected from the survey is that the demand and associated market for paid apps is growing at a very healthy rate so give it a go, you have a chance of making something for yourself in the future.
