And this is Clarence Thomas sleeping at said Inaugural: http://img.skitch.com/20090127-jr8uwqqb5dqyu81u6u81egxt2m.jp...

I'm curious about the consistency of applications written for WebOS. Just to name a few:

  * Is there a standard set of controls?
  * Will an app built as a "local app" work on the web?
  * Do you have to use HTML 5 to build mobile sites for WebOS?
  * Does WebOS's browser support meta viewport width/height and will it generally be compatible with MobileSafari?
  * Does everyone have to write a home brewed drag and drop or are these gestures included for free?
  * No Accelerometer.

I personally don't see the Apple App store hurting for submissions because you have to know Objective-C. I would also rather spend my time using Objective-c controls than writing JavaScript controls to use.

I did the crappy logo for the #1 hosting company on that site when I was a young Padawan. Think I'm going to go take a shower now.

The Prototype this example won't work unless this is bound to the anonymous function, otherwise this is the window object.

  $A(this.columns).each(function(item) {
    this.buildHeader(item);
  }.bind(this));
