Crazy for the Palm Pre

Palm’s fearless Developer Relations leaders Ben Galbraith and Dion Almaer hosted a little shindig Wednesday night along with Appcelerator CEO Jeff Haynie. (Appcelerator is the creator of Titanium, a cross-platform development environment that uses JavaScript to write native code for multiple devices—can you guess why we like them so much?) The DevRel team met lots of developers who wanted to know more about porting to webOS, did some tutorials, gave away prizes, and generally partied ourselves silly. We were also excited to celebrate the announcement of Palm’s new Hot Apps program , dedicated exclusively to PDK applications, and resident PDK expert Ben Combee was on the scene to talk about just how easy it is to port OpenGL iPhone applications to webOS .
