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
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?

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

Congrats to Eric Meyer
On the forthcoming CSS book, 2nd edition. Another thing for the reading queue. -m
Puna man charged in Sunday shooting

Big Island police have charged a 72-year-old Puna man in connection with a shooting Sunday evening at a home in Panaewa.

Sharing vs. Sales
Record Industry Execs: File sharers are a bunch of freeloaders. Sharing hurts sales.
Geeks, etc.: File sharers are samplers. Sharing helps sales.
Ed Felten: Yes.

This seems dead on. The same dynamics apply to books available under an open content license as well as for sale. -m
Come learn XForms
So, you've been hanging around on the edges of XForms--why don't you take the plunge and learn it from the inside out?

Come see me at the O'Reilly Open Source conference in Portland, for a half-day tutorial, on the afternoon of Monday, July 26. There's also a shorter 45-minute session on Thursday the 29th. -m
Is enterprise search heating up?
Uh, yes. Link: John Batelle's searchblog

"It made me think, and I realized that in fact, enterprise search will probably rise again, and end up being one of the coolest things in search in the next few years. Why? Because it sucks so badly now, fixing it will be the kind of 10X revelation we had when we moved from Yahoo to Google in 1998-99."

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
Reviewers needed
I'm writing a chapter for an upcoming book, _XML Hacks_. If you're interested in reviewing a whirlwind tour of XForms, mail me.

The objectives here are:
(1) introduce the concepts clearly
(2) demonstrate it in a way the the reader can easily duplicate
(3) reference all resources
(4) do it in roughly 2 to 5 printed pages.

Thanks ^ 4
Of the 7 regular readers around here, four generous souls (none of whom I'd met previously) offered to volunteer to review my Hack that will be in _XML Hacks_.

In no particular order:

Stephen had great comments on the overall flow and structure. Lots of markers where stuff was good too, not just the bad.

Patrick had too had good comments, especially on the ever-important opening lines. Lots of detailed suggestions and great advice.

Eric helped me see my blind spots, where I was skipping over material too fast.

Daniel had lots of detailed comments, almost copyeditor class. Exactly what I needed.

Good job and thanks to all!

Errata the Night Away
All the formerly scattered errata for _XForms Essentials_ are now collected at the official publisher's page. If you spot more report away! -m
