The latter is more and […]
Yesterday at 15.04h on the 21st October Marty McFly went Back To The Future to save his kids. We were at the Back To The Future event yesterday in the BBH offices London – an event that covered the future face of tech, with leading tech personalities. Very interesting.

The main objective was to then monitor the movement of the real prayer wheel and to visualize the movements by spinning a virtual prayer wheel in dizmoViewer accordingly. […]
In the first part of our tutorial series we built a basic to-do dizmo, using the dizmoElements library. Now, as promised, we will build a to-do dizmo using the Backbone.js library. The Backbone.js project is useful for keeping the JavaScript Code of your dizmos well organized, so it’s easier to further develop and maintain. You can […]
A few weeks ago the Swiss Newspaper Tagesanzeiger published a fascinating interview with Evernote CEO Phil Libin in which he talked about the future of computers and how we will deal with it.
