Bill Withers - Lean On Me

2010-06-26T15:18:00.002+02:00

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Google Chrome Frame

2009-09-26T09:51:00.006+02:00

I denne uge frigav Google en tidlig version af Google Chrome Frame.

Kort fortalt er det en plug-in til Internet Explorer som erstatter IE's layout engine (Trident) med Google's. Effekten er at man får bedre JavaScript performance og flere af de nye standard features fra HTML 5 med.

Alt dette sker angiveligt i forberedelse til lanceringen af Google Wave. I stedet for at optimere Wave til at køre inde i Internet Explorer, vil IE-brugeren blive bedt om at installere Google Chrome Frame eller skifte til Chrome, Safari eller Firefox.

Back in March the QCON London 2008 conference was held in London. It also contained a track on Banking: Complex high volume / low latency architectures. Slides from the presentations are available on their web site. This stuff looks really, really interesting. I wish I'd been there.

Editing Video

2008-04-19T22:08:00.001+02:00

Recently I bought a copy of Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum Edition for editing our vacation videos from our trip to the US last year. This was a great addition to my new PC, and so much more powerful than Windows Movie Maker. Finally, I would get these videos done.

But with great power comes ... a lot of extra work. There are many more settings to tweak than in WMM, and it just takes a lot time. I certainly hope the results in the end really are better and worth the extra effort.

The good thing about Sony Vegas is that it is much more stable than any other video editing program, I have used. (Windows Movie Maker and Ulead Video Studio.) Stability is so important in an editor.

Right now, I am on day 11 of 21 days. Half-way there, I have learned so many more things about editing movies, and I also see regular movies in another light now. Kind of an eye-opener to me as a consumer of entertainment.

Quote of the Day

"It's like taking the two guys who finished second and third in a 100-yard dash and tying their legs together and asking for a rematch, believing that now they'll run faster."

- Steve Ballmer (although he probably wasn't talking about the Microsoft-Yahoo merger/takeover)

An interesting concept: Stephan Strittmatter did a small implementation of log4net/log4j in JavaScript called log4js. The framework has different appenders, including an AjaxAppender for logging on the Web server.
