[javazone] [Day 2] I like it here

It is a week after the JavaZone conference however I decided to fill up the story with blog post about the last day of the conference.
I saw only a few presentation this time. Because I spent most of the time in the speakers room preparing for the presentation on Wednesday. And we were supposed to leave Oslo on Thursday afternoon. What a short trip.
We visited guys from mBricks at their booth. We had a discussion with them after our BOF yesterday. And I hope that the discussions with Karol will help them and NetBeans to enhance our portfolio. Their solution for Java ME development makes the live of Java ME developer easier. You don't have to care about the device fragmentation anymore. However it requires lot of testing and fixes on the mBricks side.
I have to say that I liked the Oslo and the JavaZone. The conference was really nice and well organized. I haven't seen too much from the city but I can imagine that I could stay here for a while. And all the companies at the booths were hiring. Maybe it is time to move to north  Sometimes the partners area looks more as gathering of headhunters than a conference...

I'm new to PHP and recently setup my local machine with PHP and MySQL for doing development. I was sort of stuck when I needed to post my work for the user to test and review. After looking around a bit I found a site that hosts PHP and MySQL apps. I was surprised that it was free - it seems they're offering the service at no cost until 2012. At that point they'll change over to a fee-based service. However, in the meantime, it's a great place to do anything from demo and sandbox right up to posting sites for real.
Their pitch is as follows:
"This is absolutely free, there is no catch. You get 350 MB of disk space and 100 GB bandwidth. They also have cPanel control panel which is amazing and easy to use website builder. Moreover, there is no any kind of advertising on your pages."
Check it out using this link:

Important: There's one catch in that you must make sure you visit the account every 14 days - otherwise the account is marked 'Inactive' and the files are deleted!!!
Thanks and good luck!
