Re: Mark - Happy Birthday

Hi Mark - Awesome to hear from you. The coolest thing I'm doing these
days is monitoring the latest ideas ("memes") on the web via
http://del.icio.us/popular/ . It consumes an hour each night, and it
is my favourite hour of the day. Man, who woulda thought the web would
be what it is today? RSS, GMail, Bloglines, del.icio.us, podcasting,
blogging. I really dig this stuff.

Dang, I'm dumping my Linksys router

After almost a year of use, it's preventing me from accessing del.icio.us for some reason. Well we can't have that, can we? So farewell to the BEFW11S4.

Dang, I'm getting this error message with the SDE Java API:

I'll admit it: as great as Java is there are times I long for the features and system access of native programming. Well we don't have to wait any longer."

It is compatible with any language that uses the Java backend, and is based on the Java Virtual Machine Profiler Interface (JVMPI). Unlike Sun's hprof tool, which generates statistical information, it logs every single method invocation and can be used to trace the execution of small parts of Java programs and display it in hierarchical trees with some elements hidden or highlighted."

Right now I am educating my ears by listening io some CDs from a music appreciation course. We've got it on shuffle, which I think helps to show the cotrasts between the various styles, and adds some variety that is welcome especially if you're not fluent in classical music (like me).

test post from GMail

Welcome to JonAquino2

This is the inaugural post of JonAquino2, which is going to be my personal blog. I have another blog, Jon Aquino's Mental Garden, which started out as a personal blog but has of late been focusing more on new technology (specifically the "personal information cloud") and has started to garnish a modest readership of a few dozen (or hundred when I post a really good idea).

Anyway, I needed an outlet for sporadic ramblings, and I did not want to bore my dear JAMG readers; hence, this new blog.
