Mobtest won Best Developer Tool at iPhone Dev Camp 3 yesterday. I’m really excited about Mobtest and we have tons of ideas of how to make it an awesome service.

I’m one of the organizers of the Mobile Widget Camp on May 2. The free event is taking place at Pakhuis de Zwijger, Amsterdam. Daniel Appelquist (Vodafone Betavine), Peter-Paul Koch (Quirksmode), and Elliot Kember (Carsonified) are among the speakers in the morning, so you’re guaranteed to get a great introduction to Vodafone/Opera widgets. Beside these speakers there will be hands-on workshops and time to code your own mobile widgets. Anyone with basic HTML, CSS and Javascript knowledge can make a mobile widget, so make sure to come and help will be available from experts to help you coding. Read more about Mobile Widget Camp on the website.

This Friday sees Lunch 2.0 visiting Utrecht for the first time, where will be hosted by iDiDiD. On August 22 we have a Lunch 2.0 at Sogeti in Diemen. Finally at the end of the month, I am hosting an iPhone Dev Camp on August 30 at my office. We’ve had a huge response to the Dev Camp idea, so if anyone has any routers, tables, chairs, projectors or other gear they’d be willing to lend me for the day, it’d be much appreciated!

Finally, keep November 22 open in your calendars. Together with Joris Machielse, I am organizing a BarCamp-style event around creating startups. More information to come in early September, but if you have any people you’d like to meet or things you wished you knew before you started your business, please leave a comment below or email me at peter@bubblefoundry.com.
