We almost had a fight at work, some people think she is rotating counterclockwise. I can see her rotating both ways, mostly clockwise. This is weird…

Interview at Google

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

A really detailed description of the Google hiring procedures, a great post:

A few months ago I received an e-mail from a recruiter at Google asking for an opportunity to talk to me about available development positions. Needless to say, I was pretty excited. I’m fairly happy in my current job, but–it’s GOOGLE. You don’t say no to an interview opportunity at Google.

3D Mailbox - WTF?

RIA’s war

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

RIA warIsn’t this me-too RIA buzz a little bit naive? A long time ago Java “invented” applets - a great idea for RIA that has gracefully failed. Flash has taken the seat. MS’s silverlight is not getting developers anywhere for too many reasons. JavaFX requires the latest Java JVM installed on the user’s computer. I believe in the power of the Sun, but the UI is not their strongest side. Flex is the only way to go if you want to have a good-looking RIA application. Almost everybody has it installed and it is a really quick download if you don’t have it. Great look, nice cooperation with J2EE technology.
