What is the Appeal of Ajax and GWT?

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 12:14:48 GMT

Ajax does have its detractors. Their argument goes as follows: Why reinvent everything that has already been done on the desktop on an inferior platform? I do agree that the attraction of Ajax is subjective (i.e., not based on technological arguments). This is obvious whenever I?m excited about something web-based, show it to non-developer friends and their only reaction is boredom. Then I...

Source Code is a Corporate Asset

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 06:49:50 GMT

The goal of software development is to - SURPRISE! - deliver software. Fancy architecture diagrams, detailed requirements documentation, and comprehensive project plans mean little if we can?t deliver the software that realizes them. The source code is the detailed specification for a software system, and it is the only specification guaranteed to offer an accurate representation of the system....

Eclipse-Databinding 3.5 for GWT

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 07:16:18 GMT

I?m a big fan of GWT but one of the real pain points when developing GWT applications is that there?s no databinding framework available to synchronize your domain objects and UI-Widgets. As many of you know I?m an even bigger fan of Eclipse-Databinding because it is written so that it can be used with ANY Model-Technology you want and even more important ANY UI-Technology you want and in...

FISL 2009: Day 2... The Internet will not listen to reason

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 06:58:16 GMT

Day 2 of FISL was, if anything, even more eclectic than Day 1. Again, wandering around the booth area and browsing through the program, it was driven home to me that this conference is all about free software, i.e., ANY free software, not necessarily programming related at all. Hence, as mentioned below, I attended a session on using video to communicate about open source software.

Present Yourself in a Better Light in a Tougher Job Market

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 10:36:03 GMT

I often see that potential job seekers don't really take the effort to promote themselves more effectively in the "Jobs Wanted" Java forums. Firstly, they post their threads with very ordinary titles like "Java Job Wanted" and "SCJP looking for Java Work". Secondly, if you click on the title half-heartedly, there is no evidence of a link to your resume or a summary...
