kevinSharp | 03 April, 2012 21:03

Nokia Developer Champion Alessandro Pace (biskero to his friends) is a mobile architect and entrepreneur with over 5 million downloads in Nokia Store to his company’s credit. Working out of his home base of Firenze, Italy, he is a world-renowned expert on Flash Mobile development, a WURFL contributor for Flash Lite, co-founder of Mobile Monday Boston, and architect of the Kero Mobile AppStore.

His success in Nokia Store comes from offering a variety of content and business models. As Biskero LLC, he offers Nokia store consumers 78 titles in total: some free, some paid, and some supported by ad revenue. One of his top titles is Tic Tac Toe Blue, available in an ad-supported and paid version. Kero Mobile is another top download for his publishing company.

In addition to his skill as a developer and his success as a publisher, Alessandro is great fun to have a conversation with over your favorite beverage. Take the conversation technical, discuss business, or get him to tell you the legend of Biskero. It’s a conversation you won’t forget.

Maps API for Java MEOver the last few days we have been at Where Camp 2012 announcing the latest developments in our portfolio of location based APIs.
 
Among the changes we announced is a new version of our Maps API (version 2.2) which combines the functionality previously provided by the separate Maps API for Javascript and Places API for Javascript. 
 
In addition, we  also introduced two RESTful web services: RESTful Maps and the new RESTful Places API, which is currently in beta. 
 
For Series 40 developers we have the new Maps API for Java ME 1.0, which introduces KML support as well as high performance mapping, search and routing capabilities.
 
Lastly, we also provided a sneak peek at our updated Mobile HTML5 framework,
which provides mapping and voice navigation functionality in an easy-to-use HTML5 library.
 
For more information on these new APIs, you can start exploring them now at http://developer.nokia.com/maps
