Pues lo seria. Los posts de Miguel son unos rollazos. Aunque tambien pense yo mismo traducir su blog. La verdad pienso que no tendria mas que un ciento de lectores. El esfuerzo no parece valer la pena.

Habria que hacer una encuesta al respecto en varios Blogs en espanol (teclado gringo) para saber si hay suficiente demanda.

If i were insulting Miguel, why he would approve the comment?. The comment is a parody of the RMS statement about him, C# and Open Source. Now you have just ruined my funny comment making me explain it.

;)

Miguel was right. I guess is hard to do a joke these days.. -_-

La verdad es que Miki es un traidor a Mexico y su Mexicanidad Chilanga desde que se fue a vivir a Boston. Debido a eso, Le hemos prohibido exponerse como tal. Tememos por la inclusion de nuestro bello lenguaje en sus truculentas conspiraciones mientras desarrolla software en el gabacho.

(Tal vez sea demasiado pronto para esta broma... :P )

I stand corrected. However maybe Opera 10 will probably will if they follow what they did in Windows where they at least reworked how they interact with browser plugins installed in the machine. So maybe it will indeed work well after all.

Chrome plugin is a some sort of point in between Firefox XPI's and Firefox Jetpack..that is why i guess that it should be the easiest to support post Firefox for Moonlight.

tried it out. it is quite better than the last preview but it must be half as fast and twice as heavy than Silverlight 3. At least that is how it feels. I guess you are about to begin optimizing it.

Just as a educated guess: Not very soon since it is not as easy to do or there is as much incentive for them to do so. But you can bet on support for Chrome/Iron 3-4 sooner than later as it gets extension and these get mature. I read somewhere that even in Linux Iron/Chrome was already as used as Opera. Surprising considering it is not even finished.

i guess he forgot to add EnableFrameSetCounter and a display for it....but yeah it should be on the sample. i can only guess that i am getting like 50fps when seeing the sample in IE8.

Really?, that is you final answer?. Then how exactly you are supposed to use the SSB concept (built into Chrome from the start) and Google Gadgets without windowing?.

Unless you are being sarcastic. then just carry on.

Horrible. but it does work.

Re: Microsoft Sells Razorfish for a Whopping $500+ Million

AvatarX — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 17:36:29 -0000

Not true. Razorfish was sold for 1.25 its annual revenue of 400 million dollars at only 500 million when its true sale value was 1billion for a 2.5 of its annual revenue. The reason they sold it to Publicis is because of the agreements:

Publicis agreed to spent 500 million dollars in Bing, Windows Live, MSN during 5 years
Microsoft agreed to spent a undisclosed about in publicis during 5 years too.

If they turned down dentsu is because its has shares on publicis (15%) and Publicis got a more global positioning for global campaigns since the agreement call for Microsoft to spend money and it will be better to be able to spend it easily. dentsu is for when you want to have the best Ad campaigns for the Asian markets.

Yeah, It is like the criticism for Moonlight. But i think that Moonlight alone gave more exposure to Mono that even MonoDevelop gave to it. Without getting to the details of all the parallel development it has (Moonshine, Desklets, etc) and those it can have.

I also figured that you grow your own teams from active contributors that turn into staff or paid contributors right?. That is another example you could give.

P.S:

From your ideas the one i like is that one about revamping Gnome with Moonlight-Mono. If you ever do so. Please call it "Monome" :D

Oh sure, of course i understand where they are coming from but saying that Miguel and Co is spreading thin is overly dramatic. MonoTouch in the end also helps to fund the main Mono Project and it also helps with Moonlight development and growth, etc.
