Useful Feeds
How many blog posts start with the words "Sorry I've not been blogging much recently, but I resolve to post more often from now". Such a post may be followed by some actual substance, before the silence re-starts.
This is not one of those posts.
Getahead used to be the only place I blogged, but I've infected a few other feeds. I generally don't spend ages linking from one blog to another - I figure you can subscribe to the others if you want that content, however you can't do that if you don't know they exist.
I'm not closing this blog down, however I expect to blog less here. The good news, however, is that I hope that means that the subject-to-noise ratio will go up and not down. Stay tuned.
Both of these blogs are multi-author, 'professional' blogs. By professional, I mean peer-reviewed posts and no cat pictures - you can get those elsewhere.
CometDaily is written by the people that have spent the most time working on Comet. I've been busy this week so:...
On-board vs. Off-board Comet is about 2 architectural styles around how to deploy comet. DWR typifies one style. It's taken (in part) from the Comet BOF that Alex and I did at JavaOne.
Comet and Cross-Site Scripting is about how comet could supercharge a web worm so it becomes more virulent than a Warhol Worm. Samy took MySpace down with a web worm in 23 hours. I think it might be possible to reduce this time to about 6 seconds.
I work for SitePen along with a long list of similar techies. Our blog generally one post per day, about Ajax, Dojo, DWR and Comet.
Servlet Spec, Comet and Java is about how to work around Java's servlet spec to avoid needlessly chewing up threads. It looks at the options provided by Jetty, Grizzy, Tomcat and the new Servlet Spec.
And clearly, like everyone else, I tweet from time to time. In between tweeting, like everyone else, I mostly complain about how I can't tweet because Twitter is so unreliable.
Still no cat pictures, but I don't get peer reviews on my tweets.
