Off topic - are any of the Disciples going to be in San Francisco for the GDC in March? I'll be doing a couple of interviews and talks there for Intel, so it would be great to hook up.

How's your app coming along mr I hanlon? Love to see it

[Peter O'Hanlon]

The competition started yesterday, so I've just started writing it. I've hooked in voice recognition and basic gesture tracking, but there's a lot more I want to do on that one. I've currently got the cursor tracking the center of mass of the hand, and it's reading node data including finger tips, so I will be representing them over the next week, and hopefully getting basic mouse down style functionality in there. I have to say, this is kind of cool.

For those who don't know, I'm one of the competitors in the new Ultimate Coder competition from Intel. I'm writing an app that uses a perceptual approach to do the type of things you see in Kinect games, and so on. 

[Daniel Vaughan]

Pretty darn awesome mate. We're rooting for you.

Speaking of cool my work colleague just wrote this simple game prototype in js and used HTML 5 canvas:

Even without looking, I'm going to guess it's from Frederik. He really is the shizzle.

[Sacha's Gmail]

It is. Boy knows his math. In fact he has made me angry I recall sfa from that age and I gave just hired a maths/physics teacher to reach me

-trig

-physics

-moving bodies

Etc etc

Dude has phd so think he is going to be ok. Lessons start this weekend

Check out Fredrik black hole in that thing it's way funny. And aliens suck out your energy (you shrink) by blasting you with lazers from their eyes. Tres cool indeed

Nice work Daniel. I hope all the hard work pays off. The 'unleashed' series has some fantastic titles.

I've just received my new WP8 HTC 8X yesterday - very happy with it.

Just realised I am the polar opposite of Sacha right now, I am a Windows Phone owner who pends most of his time developing for iOS, whereas Sacha is an iPhone owner who spends most of his time on the MS stack!

Sacha, are you not tempted by iOS development yet? ;-)

Regards,
Colin E.

[Sacha's Gmail]

Not yet. Start new job today lots of rx. That's crazy when you get into it

[Colin Eberhardt]

Cool, what do you use it for? The rx demos for ui event handling looked clever, but added little value, (other than cool value) in my opinion. Id love to see this stuff used for more than just a fancy drag and drop implementation!

Thanks mate!

Speaking of iOS, I've been having a little dabble with XNA and MonoGame in a effort to hook into to that cross platform goodness. I've been able to deploy to WP8 so far. Yet to try android, iphone, but it looks promising.

[Sacha's Gmail]

I heard xna is dead. This release is last one

Sent from my iPhone

[Peter O'Hanlon]

That is official XNA. This is the Mono version. It's available for use on other platforms.

Ah fair enough. Shame I thought xna made directx barrier to entry easier...heck even I got what's sprite batch was

DirectX itself is also being killed off.

[Peter O'Hanlon]

I wasn't aware of that. Do you have sources?

Sorry, re-checked the stories from earlier in February and it was corrected.

That is incorrect. There was a rumor due to a badly worded article from MSFT but this has been corrected since.

Right.  I try to refer to “Direct3D” vs “DirectX” as DX covered several distinct technologies, some of which can be forgotten.  D3D is a huge dependency throughout most MS products and even more so in Win8.
