Keeping up with the latest technologies, Part 2

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

In case you missed the news, we’ve recently begun releasing a set of presentations that are handy resources for keeping up with new (and some old) web technologies. Today, the set includes a breakdown of a few programming languages.  Learn things like: where they came from, what they look like, what they are used for and who uses them.  Be sure to check out last week’s release that includes Rich Internet Apps- Air, Flex, Silverlight, Swing/Java, and Javascript.

Keeping up with the latest technologies

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

As we all know, technology is critical and unavoidable in any modern lifestyle- everything from ATM machines to cellphones to vending machines are changing rapidly. Here at Momentum, we know that not everyone has the time to sit down and research the latest web technologies so we’ve done it for you! We’ve put together a nice sized set of presentations that will give you the lowdown on what’s out there.  The first set includes a sampling of RIA technologies and Runtimes. We’ll be releasing them slowly over the next few weeks so be sure to check back.
