Web technologies

Posted in Computer at 3:38 am

I am completely enamoured by several web technologies right now…

XML is still on the radar
AJAX is hot lately
Ruby and specifically the Rails framework is also very hot
PHP5 will always be a favorite with me

What are you guys working with? And if you want some book recommendations for the above, let me know.

World Series comments

Wow! What a great WS to watch. Incredible games. Some would argue that a few breaks here and there and the Astros could have swept the White Sox. Hell if it weren’t for Mr. Lidge that really could have happened! What’s going through that dude’s head right about now? I feel sorry for him.

Baseball, I will miss you old friend! So until pitchers and catchers report in February, I bid you adieu.

Now let’s see what kind of deals happen in the off season!!

MLB Playoffs

Posted in Sports at 1:35 pm

The MLB Playoffs are upon us…my thoughts:

– Boston sucks
– Yankees are overpaid, but played well to get in
– Houston : where would they be without Yankee bailers (Clemens, Pettitte)
– Atlanta: amazing accomplishment winning your division yet again…now do something in the playoffs
– San Diego: no chance
– St. Louis: solid from top to bottom
– Chicago White Sox: could be their year
– LA Angels: steady and a scary team to face in the first round.
