vzaar has announced the release of a new Objective-C Framework, which allows iPhone, iPad, and Mac OS X developers to quickly add video capabilities to their applications. The company's API, which has recently been used by Budweiser and MTV for online video competitions, also includes Ruby, Java, .NET, and PHP libraries. The new Objective-C library was designed by Daniel Kennet of Kennettnet, who claims that the framework has been created in a way that fits in with standard Cocoa design patterns. According to Stephen McCluskey, CEO of vzaar, “This is an exciting release for us at vzaar and credit to the vzaar development team whose idea it was to build this framework. We have a number of clients already using this library in development and we are eagerly awaiting the release of their applications.”

Professor of Innovation?
Why would she be at a University instead of in the trenches making it happen? In my experience, most professors of business or anything where they have a job in academic confines have no REAL world experiences the way real innovators struggle to make things happen.
They tell you stories about what OTHERS have done.
Still, I would guess it "might" be better than nothing. Often the "dreamers" and "doers" drop out.
