Alfresco Developer Guide

imageMy friend Jeff Potts announced today that his book, “Alfresco Developer Guide”, has been released.   Jeff’s been working on the book for quite a while, and it looks to be packed with great examples and information about the ins and outs of the Alfresco content management system.

I’ve ordered my copy.

The Weekly Squeak: ‘Smalltalk is cool again’, says Gartner

Via: The Weekly Squeak: ‘Smalltalk is cool again’, says Gartner

There is an article from a Gartner analyst talking about a renewed interest in Smalltalk.  Speaking for myself, I’ve come around to Smalltalk over the last couple of years and I’m very glad that I did.  It’s one of the coolest languages/platforms I’ve ever laid my hands on.

In fact, in case you were wondering, I’ve temporarily put Erlang aside to go back and visit Smalltalk land.  It’s just much more productive when you have limited time available.
