I was in that University of Houston class this past semester… best decision ever to take that course to finish off my CS degree.. I had tons of fun developing “UH Guide”, an iPhone app for the University.

It looks like we’re going to be interviewed on CW39 on Tuesday to talk about the app, so I’ll be sure to give more exposure to this growing perception of Houston being the next Mobile development hub.

I can’t wait for the iPhoneDevCampHouston meet-up.. the attendee list looks huge already.

Wow, Houston has a very active developer community! That’s awesome, I am sure they would all benefit from getting a chance to take Titanium Mobile for a test drive.

Titanium allows for the rapid development of cross platform iPhone/Android apps with full native functionality, its open source and free! no Objective-C, no Java, no pain. Check it out!

While mobile is certainly the hot growth area currently, I would encourage everyone to consider a slight shift in the paradigm and consider application design for the “anywhere-anytime” app user. I see some fundamental shifts going on in the industry which will soon be demanding attention.

Perhaps broadening the category of mobile to devices which are considered untethered. The mobile category has typically been reserved for cell phone tech. With the recent releases at CES of tablet platforms we will be seeing new uses for mobile touch based computing.

In the realm of handheld gaming I have been astounded that a device such as the iTouch has been successful at displacing some of the Nintendo DS devices.

I’m looking forward to the collective thoughts surrounding this rapidly growing opportunity.
