So enjoy this 25 minute AppUp slice of CES 2012

I’m developing a test application that is helping me to understand much better the new possibilities of HTML5. I have been using maps, queries and quite a lot of CSS to make it more pleasant. I will write about them later, but for now I would like to focus on one issue I found myself dealing with, and may be other developers with the same issue.

In this show Bob Duffy talks with Vipul Chopra and reveals a new program level change to help developers more easily get apps into AppUp. Bob also chats with Daniel Holmlund to get a sneak peak at HTML5 playground

 

OK, I have to say it, I’m way impressed with some of what I’m seeing and some of what I’m hearing at CES regarding Intel technologies.  It’s a lot for me to take in but I’ll do my best to give you guys a highlight of Intel at CES 2012.

Intel Booth

There’s a lot happening at the Intel booth from augmented reality with Legos, to In Vehicle artificial intelligence, but the real hit of the booth is the Ultrabook^TM

The Intel AppUp show for developers "Show 14": in this segment of SkypeUp, Host Bob Duffy interviews Technical Marketing Engineer, Raghav Darisi about a new In-App Purchasing API called In-App Unlocking API, which allows developers the capability of selling items to their customers within their app. Raghav walks Bob through an app that he created which utilizes this new feature.

I'm excited to announce that the Intel AppUp(SM) developer program has officially relaxed our requirement of integrating our SDK for Windows apps submitting to AppUp. While this SDK requirement had been optional for MeeGo apps, we had until now required all Windows apps use the AppUP SDK.   As of now that is no longer the case.  You can now freely submit applications to AppUp without integrating the AppUp SDK, as long as you still do the following:

Interested in developing games or have an existing game you want to monetize?  We're having a discussion that you'll be interested in joining!

The holiday season is always full of cheer and giving, and in that spirit the Intel AppUpSM developer program has a few presents under the tree for our developers.  The following items have officially launched to enhance and aid app development for the AppUp developer program.

Apps, as it turns out, need stuff, and stuff, as it ALSO turns out, costs money. Your time is yours and only costs you in opportunities and your great ideas (if you are so fortunate) may well be limitless, but lots of real (important) stuff comes with real hard costs and isn’t limitless for any of us.

On last AppUp Elements at Seattle i heard a lot about new incomming features in AppUp SDK. Some of those features is a very excited for, as for developer and I'm going to share my thoughts about new features with you in this post.

In-App Purchase

From my point of view this is not just features, this is a great way to monitize your application, to develop new monetization models. Using this feature you can sell anything from your application.

I can’t believe it’s already been over a month since Elements. I woke up mid-October with the vestiges of some kind of terrible and wonderful dream. Well, really I assumed it was a dream because it involved taking on a minor role in a circus performance, and that just didn’t sound right. However I’ve now been reassured that no, in fact it *wasn’t* a dream. I performed (a very minor role) in a circus, talked about our ramp to 6M users, and promised you that we’d be more transparent about Intel AppUp center moving forward.

I had the opportunity to participate at Linuxcon Europe 2011, which happened in Prague during October 26 to 28(pictures here, here and here).

You have put in hard work to develop and submit your app for validation to get your app listed in the Intel AppUp (SM) center. You are eager to know detailed validation results. You get all the details from Validation Reports accessible from “My Dashboard”. The report is now richer and provides developers with more information required to troubleshoot the application. Let me provide you detailed directions for:
