Congrats to Eric Meyer
On the forthcoming CSS book, 2nd edition. Another thing for the reading queue. -m
Write IE extensions in XForms
The indefatigable Mark Birbeck pointed me to this-- a toolkit to write IE sidebars in pure XForms. Included are Amazon and Google search. This is a sign of changes to come in the development of Internet Apps. -m
Newsflash

DreamHost
Cool, an Orkut community for DreamHost. A great, SCO-free Linux Debian host, if I do say so. -m
Why Pick XForms?
This is essentially a snapshot of today's talk at the Gilbane conference.

So why should you pick XForms vs. some non-XForms system?

1) The uninstaller argument
If you had two functionally similar pieces of software, one with a great uninstaller, and one with a tedious/manual uninstall, which would you install first on your own system? I thought so. Ironically, having a great uninstaller gives users peace of mind, making them *less* likely to actually uninstall the program. Open standards, with the associated non-lock-in, have the same effect.

2) Cost of change
Another way to look at the lock-in situation: even a mid-sized organization can have 1000 forms around. If each has a design/production/review cycle of 8hrs, that's an investment of 4 Man-years. Does it make more sense to invest that much in a single-source solution, or something that could be reused/shopped around? If you have a dozen forms, go ahead and try anything. For serious amounts of, use standards.

3) Metadata needs standards too
Forms are metadata. It doesn't seem obvious at first, but it's true. Forms provide a context and interpretation for a core piece of data. Metadata needs to be standardized as much as regular data, maybe more.

4) Choosing your point on the continuum
It's not like you can draw a black and white diagram of "standards-based" and "non-standards-based" software. It's all shades of gray. The flipside of this is that useful standards support isn't a checklist feature. Lots of forms systems have long lists of individual standards supported, but still use a proprietary layer that effectively negates many of the usual benefits of open standards. You have to pick the point on the continuum at which you are comfortable. -m
Chocolate Fest comes to thundering end

The Chocolate Thunder Motorcycle Run, the annual capstone to the festival, brings about 150 riders from all over the north state to the Chico Eagles Hall at Wesr 20th and Mulberry streets to raise money for youth organizations in Paradise.

Posting Frequency
Notice I've been posting more lately? I have. At the day job, I've switched to an online note format (plain text + jEdit is an amazing combination).

It's probably not a coincidence that getting into the habit of posting your thoughts online carries over to the off hours. -m

'In Lavender Fields' to benefit Helping Hands group

"In the Lavender Fields," an event held at Bayliss Ranch, will take place June 2 put on by FOCUS: Hands Helping Children.

Off to L.A.
I'm on the way to the Gilbane Conference on Content Management. I'm part of the double-length session _ Electronic Forms & Content Management_, moderated by Bill Trippe and additionally featuring speakers from Microsoft and Adobe.

This will be my first speaking assignment for my new employer, Verity. In preparation, I have updated the UBL+XForms example to work much better with formsPlayer. Check it out. -m
X-CP
Here's an interesting new Internet specification. Actually, I haven't looked at it in the slightest, but it has an 'X' in the name, so it must be good. -m
Hard drive corruption on OS X?
For the 2nd time in two months, my hard drive has been corrupted beyond what fsck/Disk Utility/DiskWarrior can repair. Even the TechTool software that comes with the AppleCare package reported "Surface Scan Failed" and "Volume Structure Failed". If anyone else has seen this, please send me mail.

Specifically, 1) is this a sign of an impending catastrophic hard drive failure? 2) Are there any utilities that can provide a definitive report that the Apple technicians will take as a "replace that hard drive now" situation? Or am I being overly-paranoid again?

The friendly Apple guys reformatted my hard drive, which made the errors go away (for the time being). So, what's up?
