Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months. This is when many of us take a hard look at what worked and what did not, complete performance reviews, and formulate plans for the coming year. For me, it is all of those things plus a time when I u...

Apple Approves First Official Porn Star App for iPhone
Former Penthouse Pet, Aria Giovanni, is one of the world's most well recognized nude centerfold models

GrindHouse Mobile Inc., the premier technical provider for adult mobile application development, including iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Symbian OS, Palm, Windows Mobile and others, has just launched "Version 1.0" of the first and only official pornstar iPhone® application for Sunny Leone and the official application for adult nude super star Aria Giovanni. Both of these brand new sexy apps are available now in the Apple iTunes® store.

Adult super star Sunny Leone's first app, the free "lite version" that offers exclusive pictures, a blog and video clips, is now available. Version 2.0, a premium version with more features, photo sets and videos is currently awaiting approval. Version 2.0 is packed with all new interactive features, games, blogs and ways to contact Sunny right from your phone, plus tons of additional high quality exclusive content. When asked about her new App, Sunny Leone commented: "I'm so excited about the future of my iPhone® App. This provides an entire new way for me to communicate with my fans and give them a new and unique content experience!"

Former Penthouse Pet, Aria Giovanni, is one of the world's most well recognized nude centerfold models. Her official iPhone® app is the second adult application developed by Grindhouse and approved by Apple®. It is currently available in the App Store. Version 2.0 is pending approval and will include several new features, more content and a few surprises for her fans. "I'm thrilled with my new App and can't wait for Version 2.0 to hit the App store. It's going to blow my fans away. Thank you Apple for approving my App and giving my fans another way to follow my life and modeling career," said Aria.

While developing the first two adult themed iPhone® Apps and getting them approved by Apple®, Grindhouse closely followed Apple's strict guidelines. The first version of Sunny Leone's App was declined due to the explicit nature of the content. "It was just a little too 'hot' for Apple's compliance department," said a representative from Grindhouse. "We worked closely with Apple to meet all of their guidelines while developing an offering that is compelling and user friendly."

These two stars are the first of many entertainment related mobile applications to be released by Grindhouse, including some of the largest brand names and adult superstars in the adult industry. The next major release will include "The girls of Erotica.com." Coming to your mobile phone soon...
