The Web Scrivener Is a very fun toy. I think you should check it out.

Later.

A great reference for OO design etc:

Here's a couple great references for looking up java class/package infomation.

There's a poster you can get too (and a more interactive and complete view of all the Java classes) at:

Found a cool way to figure out which program has locked a file in Linux. LSOF then just pipe that to a grep for the file that is locked and, the process that are associated with it (and their PID's) will be right there!

Struggling to figure out how to get the time format to quit throwing exceptions I ran across this little morsel.

Good info on postgresql timestamp in this digest

Apparently postgresql retruns timestamp information in it's own special way. Setting the pgdatestyle="iso" env variable seems to fix it. Still throwing the exception! but good to know.

Going back through my old e-mail I found a great tidbit in a wireless news list from theStandard.com. In the 2000 recap e-mail:

WAP VS. JAVA? Speaking at Symposium/ITxpo this week, Nick Jones, research director for the Gartner Group, speculated that Java will be one of the technologies that supersedes WAP. According to Jones, Java provides the superior usability needed for wireless functions like maps, device independence and gaming. Jones did say that WAP will remain the dominant technology in many European countries until 2003.

This is sure interesting, especially when you consider the initial response from Sun when WAP was hitting big press this past spring and summer.

First entry, Welcome.

Just a quick note to welcome you to my personnal web log.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Thanks!
