FullContact Person API Images Get an Upgrade
feeds.fullcontact.com
on 05/15/2013
Excerpt: Recently, many of our API users have asked for FullContact to ensure that social profile image links returned via the Person API are always accessible. And you’ve also asked that we provide secure access to those images. We heard you. FullContact is pleased to announce that we now cache all Person API contact photos along with the rest of a contact’s information. When querying the Person API, you no longer need to worry about links to photos expiring or being unavailable due to 3rd party website outages, or using insecure links to access contact photos. How do these changes benefit API Users? Because FullContact now caches contact images, as a developer, you’ll see a change in the image URLs returned in Person API responses.... read the full post.

Using JavaScript with Force.com
blogs.developerforce.com
on 03/25/2013
Excerpt: I’ve written previously about how modern web app development increasingly favors client-side (i. e. in the browser) processing over server-side logic. In this “fat-client” architecture, the server is mostly responsible for providing an API that exposes backend data and the client is responsible for invoking the API, processing/massaging the data and rendering the appropriate view. This architecture is especially applicable to mobile web applications built using HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. For obvious reasons, JavaScript plays a critical and ever-growing role in this type of architecture. Modern MV* JavaScript frameworks like Backbone, Angular, Ember etc.... read the full post.
