Hi,

If anyone is near San Jose, California this month, I will be speaking at InsideMobile Conference organized by O'Reilly and 360 Conferences.

My session will be Mobile Widget Development and it will cover WRT Widgets for Symbian, migration from/to other platforms and OVI Store publication.

"Today is possible to create mobile offline (and installed) applications using web-related technologies (XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, AJAX, Flash) and additional APIs. WRT for Nokia-Symbian, WebUI for Motorola, WebOS for Palm Pre, online/offline Webapps for iPhone 3.0, widgets for BlackBerry, and other mobile widget platforms. There is also a new hybrid paradigm using the best of the web technologies and a native development, like the PhoneGap project.

What can we do using this technology? what are the differences between platforms? Can we distribute them in the Application Stores? What compatibility do we have with web standards? What kind of applications are best-suited for this platforms? How to access location, contacts, accelerometer, SMS, home screen and Internet for each platform? What about security and privacy of my code?"

To see full schedule, other sessions information and registration details look at the official sites:

Hope to see some of you there. Drop me a line if you are near! I will be arriving to USA on July, 24th.
