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!

Glendale woman attacked by pit bull released from hospital

The Glendale woman attacked by a pit bull was released from the hospital on Tuesday, one week after the incident.

NeoOffice/J
NeoOffice/J 0.8.2 is highly recommended if you're on OS X. It has tons of scary this-is-beta-and-might-not-even-work warnings, but it does. It seems snappier, looks somehow better (is it the font smoothing?), the command/ctrl keys work like you'd expect (not reversed, as with the X11 version), and it works better for drag-n-drop opening files. -m
SCO Humor

Somewhere on the path to Mordor....

"We hates them, the nasty Linuxies!", hissed Darllum. "They STOLE the precious from us. Evil Linuxies! We hates them!"
"But Linuxies helps us!", he wimpered. "They gives us nice IPO...they gives us Kernel Personality. SAMBA is our friend!"
"We don't have any friends!", he spat, eyes glowing with hatred and fury. "Evil, tricksie Linuxies! They STOLE it! We HATES them!"

"OK, Sam", sighed Frodo, "I've changed my mind. You can kill him now."

Search
I've been particularly inspired lately by the problem of Search. Between the new employer, and reports of one-man search companies and reports of completely new technologies, this is getting to be quite an interesting space.

Which happens to mesh with my gradual project the last few months--converting all my stored information into good old UTF-8 plain text. The nexus of all these things is David Mertz's book Text Processing in Python, which references his excellent public domain text indexer code.

It wouldn't take much to convert my whole blog over to this system. Hmm. -m

That's 'away from country'.

Minimal updates for a while: One week in Southern France, for a W3C meeting. Yes, work can be pretty demanding sometimes. -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."

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?
