I’ve had a go recently at looking at Spring Boot OAuth2 and how easy it is implementing a sign in with Microsoft using OAUTH2. My findings were surprising and justified I think this blog post. More importantly I think it explains why Microsoft has such little “pull” with developers nowadays. (Sure they are trying to […]

API World Conference 2018
I’ve tweeted enough about this during the conference itself so you would have seen all of these images before, but if you want a “no subtitles” image-only version here it is — going through the images they actually do tell a story themselves to be fair!

Product Idea — Uber in Hotels?
I stumbled upon this potential idea recently, when one of my friends from Romania was over here for a conference. His company was paying for his trip expenses and they put him up in a hotel in Redwood City as it turns out. As you do when you travel, you try and connect with old […]

The beauty of using Evernote is that the storage is already structured for you in […]
Evernote API — Small Maven Problem
So I started looking a bit closer these days at the Evernote API — another platform alongside Twitter which I like a lot, which is to say it’s basically another platform I find myself writing all sorts of tiny apps around 🙂 From the beginning I find out right away a small problem in their […]
Small App for Linking Twitter and HowAboutWe
OK so I know it’s geeky as you like, and to a certain degree pointless… however, for the sake of being a geek and using Twitter too much perhaps, I decided to give this a go, and it turned out into an app that I rather enjoyed playing with (as well as writing it of […]
