Just got this in the post the other day (thank you!!!) — I think it pretty much sums up every one of my days nowadays 🙂

Updates Services / WordPress
OK so for a while I’ve been keeping an eye on who and what and how indexes my blog, trying, like all the other bloggers out there to get a bit more “traction” (I looooove Silicon Valley slang 😉 ) for my blog. Part of this, is not just relying on the standard Google or […]
8,000+ Page Views a Month!
Back in February/2012, I’ve hit 3,000+ page views a month — big milestone for a small blog like this, I’m sure you’ll all agree! It appears traffic has been on the way up though, as my latest look at the Wassup stats reveals over 8,000 page views for the last month! And that is, as […]

In case you haven’t quite figured it out, the above RFC stands for Request For Clarifications in this case — as in, this post is meant to pretty much ask the tinterweb population out there if they know anything about this. (My searches so far have proved unsuccessful — though I am known to be […]

No More Architects and Cowboys, Please!
I’ve read recently Dustin’s post “Software Architects Need Not Apply” (and in fact was very pleasantly pleased to see that JavaWorld has republished it on their site!) and I felt the subject needs a few words from me too (as always! 🙂 ). I think Dustin made a valid point there : “those who can, […]
The Other Side of the Fence
I felt I needed to write this, as we have been interviewing for a bit in Cognitive Match, for various segments of our technical team and we had occasionally bad luck with the candidates who turned up. Having been on both sides of the recruiting fence in my life, I realise that a certain percentage […]
A Lesson in Class a la California :-)
Who said that Californians drive only 4×4’s and above? Check out this big bad boy, as seen in a Safeway car park (for real!):
Out and About in One of the Parks in Cupertino This Weekend
Felt a bit like being in St James’s Park in London — minus the rainy weather 🙂
