Long time without much action.....

I'm sorry that there has been for the most part nothing doing here in months. I'm sorry for leaving a blog open, taking up space, and having it not do anything, which wasn't the point of the blog. There have been several problems with needed immediate attention, and are in the process of being handled, however, time was of the essence.

That leads me to my next point, which what was the point of this blog? What were we going to write about. Then I decided on everything.

A whenever, whatever, "No Political Correctness" zone for those late night after-party shows from one of the more "professional" shows, and then everyone comes here and gets wasted.

"Effort is the Cure to Cancer, Motivation is the Vaccine"

I think that cancer can be beaten, and as I have recently said...

"Effort is the cure to cancer
Motivation is the vaccine"

Unfortunately scientists in laboratories can put all the effort into research, but it's those of us who are personally touched, who have the personal motivation and drive, to be able to actually eradicate one of the worst plagues on human emotions ever to exist.

Perhaps we can all buck up, and handle dealing with cancer our self, dealing with the chemo, and dealing with dying. Perhaps in our own minds we are prepared to overcome that, and so be that, there is nothing wrong with that. However, the family members of those who suffer with such afflictions are not often so brave.

I strive to live in a world where no child will lose their parent, because their parent lost a battle with their own body! No family member, no friend, no person, should ever have to face the devastating consequences of knowing someone with such a disease.

Unfortunately death is the easy part...

"An App-Centric Internet; Facebook's Huge App-Tab Blunder"

Facebook unfortunately made a huge mistake with the removal of app tabs, and boxes.

Facebook was once the bleeding edge of the internet, however, it's now falling far behind. Regardless of if one thinks this is the right way to go, the internet is going in the way of web 2.0 and cloud based app's.

Google chrome has the ability to create a desktop app, and Mozilla has the equivalent in their prism application, allowing users to turn distinct web pages into "apps" such as YouTube, or facebook. Both Mac OS, and Android Platform phones run on the premise of apps, and Ubuntu Linux is planning to have unity replace gnome.

Microsoft is on-board with the "app" design layout, and the Window's 7 tool bar, which is what the Ubuntu Unity interface will look like, has the ability to "pin" applications to the bar. Thus allowing users to quickly access specific programs for compartmentalised needs.

Microsoft, Google, Apple, Mozilla, and Canonical...five massive names in the world of computing, technology, and the internet. All five of these companies have seen the potential and ergonomics of these "apps", or single purpose web applications, either natively or cloud based.

The browser is slowly fading away, be it for better or worse, regardless, it is. There seems to be a day, in the not too distant future, where there will be very little, or no need for an internet browser. The browser itself may turn into an app, the internet collectively could potentially, arguably, be an app itself.

With the way technology is moving, and the growing shift towards "apps" facebook is missing out on an golden opportunity.

A smart company would notice the trend, and make it's own "app" designed to take the apps of its users, and share them, a social network of app's. People want to know what their friends like, what their friends are doing, and are already migrating towards an app-centric internet experience.

There's no need for a company to make such a model, however, as Facebook was that model. With a massive user base and the implementation of app tabs, it was far ahead of the curve, and in a prime position to become even more of an internet powerhouse, due to it's already massive user base.

This leaves me questioning? Why has a site that focused on relating information to others unwilling to relate the "apps" of others, when clearly "apps" are going to become the new dominant internet experience - again - potentially eliminating the browser all together, including facebook.com

Xieon Thoughts - Blog Goal

I'd like to go into a bit of detail of what I'd like to accomplish, and use this blog for. Although, I don't currently have a great definition of just what the scope will be.

I, however, did not want my other blog "Xieon Politics" to succumb to the pitfall of straying from topic, so I created a new blog.

I will update this entry soon with what I plan on blogging and writing articles about, and I apologize for the delay and inconvenience from the blogs templates being adjusted.
