Viagra Soft?

So, apparently I sent spam to myself.

I'm not so sure about the product I'm selling though, somehow I don't see Soft being something to associate with a product like Viagra.

Well, at least it's 70% off all January. Until the next spam at least.

”Design patterns are killing creativity”

Mandatory disclaimer: I don't have anything against design patterns in general, I just like discovering things by myself. Even if it's mostly by accident.

The great class battles of DOM

AJAX window managers that enable the "real application feel" inside the web browser have become all the rage in the last few years. I've written several windowing systems on top of Javascript/DOM myself, with mixed results. Usually they've worked well enough for my own use in some particular project, but I've never had the time to build anything more refined, modular and reusable. I've also tried to use the existing UI libraries but nothing's ever been quite suitable to my needs for one simple reason: they seem to be too trusting in the environment they reside in.

So, is this like proper blogging then?

When I started to think about blogging, again, I realized I've lost count how many different blogging solutions I've done from scratch during the years, probably something like 10 or so. I know I had three blogs earlier, all had some special niche or "thing" I just had to have to try and separate them from the bland masses. I wanted to be special, probably wanted to prove something too. Having access to multiple servers with all the necessary bits and pieces, databases and enough bandwidth to last a lifetime made me forget what it's all about. Not this time, I hope.
