Yahoo Mobile Developer Award 2009

Yesterday, I attended Yahoo Developer Network Kopi Darat (gathering) at Ritz-Carlton Jakarta. That gathering is aim to introduce Yahoo Developer Network in Indonesia also to launch Yahoo Mobile Developer Award 2009 (YMDA 2009).

YMDA 2009 use new mobile platform from Yahoo called Blueprint. Blueprint can be used to build new kind mobile application. Blueprint itself is use XML as its language. No scripting, just maskup. Probably, if need a kind of logic, we could use several language that is supported by blueprint such as php, java, coldfussion, etc. By launching this platform, Yahoo have some concern about new trend of internet use in future, Mobile internet.

The prize of contest is really interesting. 10,000 USD. Like usual, I must submit application. Whatever if later I will pass or reject, I don't care. Participation and trial is main thing. From there we can learn many things.
