Life in a Hexagon
Somebody running the Gilbane conference had fun with Photoshop. :-) Yes, that's the same as my Orkut photo. -m
Microsoft Innovation
OK, knock off the jokes about oxymorons. Today, on my daughter's 1998-vintage computer, I installed Windows 98. I had completely forgotten the pain involved with that particular task. IBM hardware, as ordinary off-the-shelf as it could be, and the install doesn't recognize the onboard video card. No Internet, and hardly any other machines in the house have a floppy. Ungh. Several hours later, I'm finished.

Today, we basically take it for granted that you just pop in an OS CD and install away. Not terribly long ago, care and feeding of a computer was an intensely geeky proposition. Only recently has it become mainstream. For Desktop Linux, the bar has been raised much, much higher. This is a good thing. -m
Then Again..
On the other hand, if your day job deadlines leave you completely exhausted at the end of the day, electronic notes or not, you'll tend to blog less (or at least blog in the morning, when you're still semi-conscious). -m
Seeing XForms Inside Out
At the O'Reilly Open Source Convention in Portland, come see my presentation Seeing XForms Inside Out:: Inside an XForms Validator (Thurs July 29). Whether you're just learning about XForms, or been working with it already, you will find some interesting insights by looking at XForms from the perspective of a validation tool.

If you can make it for the full week, I also have a half-day tutorial on Monday (July 26). Check it out! -m
Puna man sought for questioning

Big Island police are asking the public's help locating a 22-year-old Puna man wanted for questioning in connection with an October shooting in Puna.

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
DreamHost
Cool, an Orkut community for DreamHost. A great, SCO-free Linux Debian host, if I do say so. -m
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
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
Teen reported missing

Stephanie Parsons is described as Caucasian, 5 feet 9 inches tall, and weighing 170 pounds, according to the Hawaii Police Department.

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.

Newsflash
I've been nominated for an InfoWorld Innovators Award. More details here later. The results will be announced here on May 24. -m
Unipain
Interestingly, Jon Udell's latest column at InfoWorld has the following title: "InfoWorld: E-mail’s many hats: April 23, 2004: By Jon Udell : APPLICATIONS". (because this will likely get mangled further in the publishing stream, that's a-circumflex, then two of what looks like an A-in-a-box instead of the apostrophe in "E-mail's".

Unicode is hard. Even if your content is fine, chances are good that your content management or publishing system will come in and muck things up. Actually, Unicode isn't what's hard--if the whole world used it exclusively we'd be sailing smooth--what's hard is transitions between encodings. Throw in a few unhelpful substitutions by Microsoft Office's aggravating, so-called "smart quotes" features, and you've got a mess on your hands.

A straight-quotes-are-your-friends production. -m

Update: More related discussion. But not directly related. The web page is still titled oddly, as above. Also, interestingly, RSS readers and Atom readers see the above differently. Which just goes to show...
