The Self-Directed Learner

Intel has launched a new service that delivers applications for Netbooks in a way similar to Apple’s store for iPhone and iPad apps. I don’t know how successful this service, known as AppUp will be. It’s offerings seem limited and overpriced, but a generic service targeted at NetBooks could take off eventually. Maybe using a platform like Adobe AIR would be a better approach, as a single app could be written once and played on a multitude of applications.
