I just cast my vote in the JDJ Readers’ Choice Awards. I think of this as superior to the Peoples’ Choice Awards as there is little chance of running into Paris Hilton at the award ceremony. This is for two very good reasons: (1) Paris Hilton isn’t interested in this...

I sorted it out. Last month, I wrote about some work that I was doing with the EBay SDK and Eclipse RCP. I had a few problems getting the integration to work, but I’ve sorted them out. I demoed it to Ian today and even he thought it looks pretty...

A few days ago, I listed some of the books that we’re going to be giving away at JavaPolis. I just learned that we’re also giving away a whole set of the Addison-Wesley Eclipse Series. I’ll just bet you wish you were going to JavaPolis now. Mmmm… free books…
