30 Non-Flash Sites That Changed FWA In 2011
2011 - The Year Everything Changed at FWA It all started in 2007 Up until February 2007, FWA had almost entirely been awarding Flash websites. For 7 years, every day, a new Site Of The Day (SOTD) was being announced and it was always, almost completely, Flash deployed.

This site still stands shoulder to shoulder with the best non-Flash sites of 2011 and will always stand out as the seed of change at FWA.

Editor’s Note : Guest contributor and early TechCrunch writer Steve Poland ( @popo ) is exploring a fund to join the “overcrowded” early stage investment market. His last contribution was “Will It End Very Badly?” Probably Not . If you’re asking which startup to build, not whether to build, you probably have several half-baked ideas and don’t know which one to devote yourself to.
What Startup To Build?

In case you’ve been living under a rock this year, AppHarbor is one of the hottest things to hit .NET since, well, just about ever.

It then adds a comprehensive collection of add-ons to do everything from persisting data (MS SQL, MySQL, MongoDB) to caching services (Memcacher) to load testing (blitz). And the best bit?In the past, most developers’ approach to code is that you should write it once and hopefully never have to debug or revisit it again. This stems from the traditional waterfall approach of software development where we were trying to completely describe the entire system up front perfectly. Change was bad and bugs were not accounted for and left for the end. The Agile movement ushered in the first change to this mentality. Agile introduced the concept of refactoring , or writing your software once and then revisiting it (often if needed) and restructuring its internals for improvement (without changing its external outputs).
