Hello everybody,
welcome to my blog. Until a few months ago I never thought about putting up a web log on my own. The reason was that while I can surely define myself as sort of gadget freak, there were (and actually are) far too many blogs concerning the latest and greatest and fastest gadgets on earth so why starting another one? And why getting trapped in the spiral of rush to publish the latest pix obtained by selling ‘your soul’ to somebody, eventually get upset because somebody else stole or linked directly to them sucking bandwidth and so on?
I want to be more relaxed about my blog, I hope I can post things that can be nice, cool and why not sometimes useful too. My background is programming, I’ve been doing this since I was 14yo and many moons have passed since then. I spend most of my time maintaining a graphical application platform called eyeGT and licensed by my company.
This platform allows us to create some unusually easy to use, pervasive and sophisticate looking interface for any kind of computing device that has some memory, a decently sized CPU (56 Mhz….. yes megahertz) and an LCD screen with a bunch of colored pixels.
We actually use it to power our application and port them to a variety of hardware and embedded platforms, irrespective of the OS and graphical capabilities they have.
This blog will concern about applications, demos, libraries and so on written using eyeGT and running in possibly all platforms we currently support. Don’t worry; it is going to be fun…..
Since all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, I will feel free to post anything else beside programming as well, whether this include special achievements (like homebrew beer) or the new high percentage caffeine chocolate block just launched on the market.
Hope you will like it and never mind to post your comments to anything you see here.
Cheers,
Emanuele Cipolloni aka Blinky
