Oh yeah, and, just noticed this upon arriving at work. In the past 6 months, forgotten mounted shares and the subsequent filesystem-related lockups and beach-ball-spinnings in Jaguar have been my sole reason for reboot.
As it would happen, I forgot to disconnect from shares on my home LAN again, and awoke my PowerBook on the [...]

I know I’m late to the blogosphere release party for Panther, but I just got it last night and, biting the bullet, installed it with only minimal effort toward backing things up. I intend to eventually wipe this PowerBook completely and install fresh, but I couldn’t wait. :)

After playing with an N-Gage, I think sidetalkin.com is freakin’ hillarious. One thought on this sidetalking thing, though:
At least it keeps the screen from getting all schmutzed. My Treo 300 screen gets absolutely filthy, due to me pressing the slab up against my head to talk. Also, there seems to be a [...]

personal research and learning. I’ve been seeking out tools and
technologies which are as different as possible from those with which
I already have experience. I want to break up some prejudices and

In response to the opposition to RSS-Data,
Marc asks,
“Where are the Reviews, Resumes, Recipes, Topics and other cool new
forms of micro-content?”
Well, I did a bit of Googling this morning, and this is what I found:
On the subject of reviews, A.M. Kuchling
has provided an
RDF namespace
for embedding book review metadata within XHTML documents.
For resumes,
Uldis Bojars
has been working on [...]

I’ll be at the Enterprise Architect Summit in Palm Springs next week,
on a couple of panels. One’s entitled Schemas in the wild: XML takes
on the vertical industries, and the panelists are Jon Bosak and Jean
Paoli. The single most important question I’d like to ask these guys
is: how do we strike the proper balance between freedom [...]

Dare Obasanjo has provided some initial bullet points of what a vocabulary gets from having an XML Schema :
* Usually provides a terse and concise description of
the vocabulary [relative to the prose of the spec]
* Enables software to validate that XML documents
being received from clients or servers actually
conform to the vocabulary. [...]
