Based on a thread on slashdot, I started looking up some on Design Patterns. Found some more books relating to Design Patterns. Desing Patterns Java Companion by James Cooper is a nice one as well as the Thinking in Patterns by Bruce Eckel's with some additional books available as well.

Recently received an email (this is not the first time) regarding an addition I made to the Morten's JavaScript Tree Menu product which you can still access here. I did this when I worked at ARL on the ABCSI project that I use to work for. I would include an web address for the project, but it no longer exists at ARL. I figure I need to remember this site for future reference, and my blog is a perfect place to remind myself of the PHP work which I have done.

Found an interesting blog item called UML and Process Definition for Java - JSR 207 over at Java.net which seems kind of interesting.

Also found another useful source of technical weblogs at O'Reilly.

It seems more and more that this is a good source of research and a means of publishing this material. With commenting and discussions available, it allows for a truely valuable collaborative, knowledge base methodoligy.

While on Slashdot I found reference to an interesting site called Computer Science Papers NEC Research Institute CiteSeer Publications ResearchIndex. This could be a good source of possible ideas for implementing products based on scientific ideas.

I just love my daily supply of GROKLAW. This is an interesting example of how open source style of legal services could exist. This one focuses on the Intellictual Property (IP) disagreement between IBM and SCO over supposed IP property that IBM allegidly placed into the Linux kernel. All of this seems to be an attempted by SCO to bring some financial viability to its company.

While reading a weekly edition of LWN: Kernel development, I think the article relating to the future of file system is quite interesting and may warrent looking into one of the related project. Still not completely sure of the benefits completely, but I believe it is to allow for better file interaction. I think the concept is basically adding an additional layer of meta data linked with each file. This almost seems like the idea of resource forks found in Mac file system, or to a degree the ideas brought forth in the Amiga DE interpretation of a new idea instead of working with files. I'll have to find that reference at some point.

Started to use the blogger functionality via Google, based on the Google Toolbar. It supposedly gives me the ability to place the blog information on my web page. I will see if this is worth wild. It's a start at any rate.
