My weekly thoughts on Twitter

  • On my way to #SDC2009 at Papendal, Arnhem do 3 talks. Extension methods, Silverlight & .NET RIA, smart use cases. #
  • Did my talk on extension methods in .NET this morning at #SDC2009. Went well. #
  • Did my talk on code generation for Silverlight, .NET RIA Services, Entity Framework from UML (using Tobago) this afternoon at #SDC2009. #
  • Watched introduction of Windows 7 at #SDC2009. Not sure features shown in keynote will make me want to install it – beside the 14Gb HD space #
  • A novelty! I'm in latest issues of Software Release, .NET Magazine, SDN Magazine and Computable at the same time! + wrote book chapter. #
  • Got ideas around Silverlight, .NET RIA Services and ADF 3.0 frameworks. Should be able to generate / build line-of-business apps in < 10 min #
  • Brainstorming on modeling on Google Wave with @tbroek. #
  • Second day of #SDC2009 was fine. Met a lot of people. Saw Shawn Wildermuth discuss value of .NET RIA Services. Same opinion I had in my talk #
  • Presentation horror. Doing 5 talks at conference, 1 panel discussion, a half-day training, and 3 university lectures in 6 days. Pff. #
  • Preparing domain driven design workshop for our distributed agile (NL-India) software factory team which I'll be doing later today. #
  • Got some very nice feedback through LinkedIn: "Big fan of your work! …" That helps you get through the day! #
  • RT @tbroek: "Travelling by train to finalize story for #soasym09." >> Yep. Me too. #
  • RT @deltalounge: "very lively, enthousiast session on Smart Use Cases by @aahoogendoorn #soasym09" >> Nice. #
  • Testing HelloTxt Email Gateway . again. You never know when it actually works. Highly unreliable piece of junk (eh.. I mean software). #
  • Short and readable (unlike the book) interviews with the authors of Design Patterns, at its 15 years anniversary. http://htxt.it/H2HK #
  • Added a Follow Me (on Twitter) badge to my blog. http://htxt.it/MunX #
  • Also added the IntenseDebate plugin to my blog. It moderates comments. Look nice. See http://htxt.it/ve5B #
  • Just order a Motown logo t-shirt. Yes, and a Star Wars logo t-shirt for my kid as well. #
  • RT @smartusecases. Accelerated Delivery Platform http://bit.ly/3fdiv4 #
  • Preparing three lectures I will do tomorrow at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, on software methodologies, analysis & design, use cases. #
