Whenever I feel down and need inspiration, your speech at Handford(2005) always never fails to reenergize my spirit and continue to what I am doing.
We have truly lost a visionary. Rest In Peace Mr. Jobs.

I got an old Wacom graphire2 that I haven’t been utilizing that much since I seldom do graphic work anymore. But I’ve recently been teaching my daughter on how to use Adobe Illustrator. Saw this new product from Wacom, amazing technology jump on how to interact with drawings to be vector images which makes me want to fall in love with drawing again.
This week one of the requirements for our client was to have a force.com application communicate with an external web service running on PHP to generate a barcode sequence. I’ll teach how I was able to setup the web service using NuSOAP and a document/literal as rcp/encoded is not supported by force.com. My goal was to make the task easier on php side so from force.com it would make a request by passing a string delimited by an asterisk and pipe. We process the string and return it back as url for the barcode image. I wont be covering barcode creation though in this tutorial but only the web service and sample client.

Technology is really moving fast, saw this in my mailing list and is truly amazing. Its a 3D Augmented reality field solution that works on smartphones.
AR Jewelry – Platform for demonstration of products (jewelry, toys etc) using the 3D Augmented Reality technology.
The list of products in this application is downloaded from Internet allowing to add dynamically new products to the server and demonstrate them to users.
Ready to licence it(as white label) to third parties(advertising agencies, jewelry/toys etc producers etc) etc.

I have this personal web application that was built from scratch last year and has already been considerably indexed by google. I used some Apache mod rewrite to make the urls friendly. Last week I decided it would be faster/easier to jumpstart the project again if I just focus on my application and just use a framework to handle other intracacies like abstractions, security and etc. I was aiming for CodeIgniter but got a glimpse on BuddyPress for WordPress(not a framework) which has most of the features I want for my app. So long story short I ended up porting my application to be a plugin for WordPress.
