Two posts lost between yesterday and today. The first because I've closed the window without submitting, and the second because of a crash of windows 2000 caused by Java 1.4.1.

Starting to play...

... with this new toy. Until I found Anthony Eden free weblog, I was poking around trying to choose what to install (PHP preferred) to do my weblog. This is an endless trip when you have no strong goal. Every implementation has its pros and cons, and eventually, there is no clear cut winner. I've […]
Another wasted day...
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
... but with some fun nonetheless. I went to a local store and bought the 3 last albums of Sakamoto Ryuichi, and it's really expensive. I still can't realize that I've spent so much money for those three plastic discs. Another part of the day was spent trying to find out some standard software […]
Spaces are back
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
Ugo Cei mentionned Spaces today, it can be found here. Obviously, he's not satisfied with the news aggregrator he tried, neither do I. Why has nobody coded a simple, effective and free news aggregator ?
.Net new release, I can't help, I'm angry
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
Why do advertisements rule the world? Why .net has got that momentum? Is it revolutionnary? No. Is it free? No. Just because it's marketed by the first software company, not known for its innovations, we have to endure all this advertising, FUD campaign, books, public proofs of love, and soon […]
Useless rant
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
Today a cousin caught a virus on her PC. What more needs to be said? The PC runs Windows 98, the mail client is Outlook Express, period. Thanks M$, you did a great job for all the virii developpers on this small planet. Thanks for providing so much funds for the antivirii companies. Even if they try […]
PostNuke, Xaraya, yet another fork
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
I don't know why, today I checked PostNuke's status. Some things amazed me: the number of developers on sourceforge went from more than 100 to 13 I did recognize only 2 names on the developpers list the most active developers have vanished public CVS browsing has been removed To be true, it's not a […]
Building the infosphere, portals should revive
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
A thing I always loved in Dan Simmons' Hyperion, is the accessibility of information in the infosphere. A space where the information you need is there and accessible. Currently, the web is far from being that, but it's changing, slowly. I would like to be able to track those changes, and I'd like […]
Fed up with Feedreader
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Tout venant
It crashes more and more often, and its a memory hog. But I've other things to code before I try to do a news aggregator.
"JSR-14 blows and .NET rocks"
mercredi 27 novembre 2002. Cyberpunk
Today on Andy Oliver weblog, JSR-14 blows and .NET rocks, Windows Still blows and other happy thoughts : Engage a feverant Java zealot in a discussion about the short comings of EJBs and they'll tout the advantages of Appservers. Correct them: "I'm not talking about the concept of app servers […]

Is one life enough ?
samedi 9 novembre 2002. Regional news
When one day is not enough, why should one life be sufficient ? Even after reading Procrastination: Why you do it. What to do about it. I'm not that much advanced. Looking fot its reference on amazon.com brought back so many references to procrastination, it's amazing! Is procrastination the problem […]

fp ! Joking by the way...
mercredi 6 novembre 2002. Regional news
Feedreader 2.3 is really crappy. The user is unable to say what this software is doing in the background, whether there is some network problem, or website problem, but most of the time this software is the problem. Every time I use it, I feel like I should write my own, and I think it's going to […]
