    Intel Atom Developer ‘Submit Early. Win Big” contest results are in

    Intel just posted the results on it's Submit Early. Win Big contest which is a contest they used to kick off it's developer program for the Intel Atom family of processors. More winners will be revealed on March 9th, as well as details on the next Intel Atom Developer Challenge. So if you're a developer and haven't heard of this program (where have you been) you can download the SDK here.
    Idea: I want to see a lightweight video editing application that can accept various file formats like those specifically used by Flash HD mini camcorders (i.e. Flip)

    Winners:

    The first place winner was an application called "DeskSpace" which was created by Otaku Software. The image to above is an example of what it looks like while running on your netbook.

    DeskSpace is a 3D virtual desktop that gives you more space for your windows and icons. You can eliminate desktop clutter by arranging your windows and icons across up to six desktops, all easily accessible via a revolutionary 3D desktop cube.

    I could see myself using one side for casual browsing, another side for games and another side for work / blogging.

    The rest of the winners can be seen here: Results Page

    If you haven't downloaded the AppUp center for your netbook you should download it here. With the AppUp center you can download both free and paid apps specifically designed for use on your netbook.

      that desktop cube program isn’t revolutionary at all, it’s just a port from Linux. They shouldn’t be able to charge for something they just stole from another OS lol

    2. Oh, that’s kind of funny lol. I didn’t know it came from Linux which makes me wonder if the folks judging the contest knew that or not either…
