Find Me at Collaborate

If you’re not into acronyms, that’s Oracle Applications Users Group and International Oracle Users Group. Oh, and Quest is the international users group for [...]

How-To: Install Chrome Extensions Manually, the New Way
Peter (@peterreiser) alerted me to a new feature of Google Chrome. Starting in Chrome 21, the browser will no longer allow installation of extensions via the .crx file.

So, this is a happy coincidence. Remember how Noel (@noelportugal) built Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots controlled by phone, specifically using Twilio (@twilio)?

I love this stuff.
