• Reading is delightful on the iPad – The iPad Review – Quick Analysis - A great "read only" device, but a bit expensive since you probably already have a phone and laptop.
  
• GrandCentral founder: How to get over an App Store rejection - Wondering about the roots of Google Voice and what else Google is doing with collaborative audio/video?
  
• 10 Google hacks to make life easier - A bunch I knew and use, some I didn't.  Very informative.
• Elastic Load Balancing with Sticky Sessions - A nice alternative to having to understand and configure application server clustering.
  
• New iPhone Developer Agreement Bans the Use of Adobe’s Flash-to-iPhone Compiler - Apple continues to be very closed.  Why should it matter if code generation or cross compilers are used?
