Wow! Just opened a 1099 tax document for 2011 from Apress. People must still be buying my old books on eMbedded Visual Basic, the .NET Compact Framework 2.0, and SQL Server Compact 2.0. The Pocket PC and Windows Mobile live on!
A separate 1099 for Hood Canal Press tells me that my SQL Server Merge Replication books are still killing it! Our world of disconnected devices require efficient data sync now more than ever. Despite a variety of sync technologies out there, Merge is still the best!
Since 90% of the world’s population has mobile network coverage, lets take a look at how they’re using it, where they’re using it, and what we should expect from the future…
Interesting stuff!
