Crazy Talk

So now, Microsoft goes and bids for Yahoo. The world is crumbling. From what I read, Balmer seemed like a child .. "Google sucks .. because .. they suck .. you know, they think they’re so big .. they suck .. we’re number 1 .. GO TEAM!!"

Wierd.

Things kicked up a notch. Work has begun on the big contract. It’s cool. I’m going to be able to lash out and buy PDF Tools. I’m looking at a really funky support system .. and while building it myself has a big draw .. this thing is already awesome out of the box and costs a few hundred. I couldn’t replicate it’s functionality in ten times that many hours (that fit into it’s price).

The new Robin Hood was on last night (Sunday)!! What’s doing? I heard nothing about it. Caught the tail-end of the episode, and was laughing my head off. I love it that they really are doing the most ridiculous stunts, and yet I find it awesome. Over acting, deus ex machina all over the place (I think I got that right), and a really lame bunch of stories. But they really .. REALLY .. work for me.

Anyway, I have things to do. About four gazillion. No .. four.

Top 10 Google & Technorati “Software Development” Sites–Part 2

February 15, 2006

Disclaimer: In progressing through this article, I came upon this realisation. It’s quite hard to review just a blog. In general. It’s far easier to look at a specific post (or a bunch of them) than the blog itself. To refine my statement, it’s harder to write a lot about a blog, in general. Ha [...]

Are You A Sheep? Cause Google Is The Shepherd

November 17, 2005

I’m a sheep. Baaa Baah. I’m easy to please, and not so smart that I don’t get excited about the "cool new things" that people like Google give to me. So I’m wondering, directly after typing out my last post, about the effects of Google being the Shepherd. What risks are there, if any? And [...]

Why Google Will Be Taught In History

November 9, 2005

Disclaimer :: This has all been said before no doubt … but that’s the beauty of the net. Of the blog. It’s my version. At lunch today with John, one of the Dev Dawn Originals, I freaked myself out with a simple statement about Google. Their genius was not in developing their own product (or [...]

The Battle Lines Are Being Drawn

November 3, 2005

So. Saw this article today, and was excited about the future. Looks like MS is taking up the baton of New&Cool and is trying not to miss the boat. Specifically the AllThingsGoogle boat I think. It should be fun to see what happens in the next year. Whether MS will come good. I guess there’s [...]

Clarion’s Purpose Today

November 1, 2005

As the first article for this site, I thought what better subject than the beginning. In the world of today, with all it’s newfound enthusiasm for desktop-like applications on the web, what purpose does Clarion have? The gap between desktop and web interfaces is closing, and although i’m sure there are inherant differences that mean [...]
