TargetProcess
TargetProcess is a nice lightweight (and free) agile project management tool running on ASP.NET 1.1 / SQL 2000. We're running our current project (building a content plugin framework) with this tool. With the exception of our IDE (VS.NET 2003) and defect tracking system () all of our tools for building, testing, documenting, integrating, collaborating, and reporting are open-source. The revolution has arrived.

Hotmail Finally Upgrades My Account
Hotmail finally made good on its promise to upgrade my Inbox to 250 MB. Better late than never! I've been using Gmail pretty extensively for the past few months, but I'm just not willing to let Hotmail go. Gmail's interface is better, but my passport integrates with Messenger and MSDN. If only there were a way to tie everything together...

Joined the ACM
I just joined the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) as a student member for the astonishingly low price of $42.00. The ACM portal contains all the ACM publications in online (PDF) format as well as over 395 online books and 450 online courses. If only all my investments were this good.

JSimpleUnit - JavaScript Unit Testing Framework
This week I had to write some JavaScript and I've gotten so used to that I ached for a unit testing framework. Google search revealed JsUnit, which seems pretty slick (haven't tried it), but also required a shitload of subclassing etc. I wanted something simple - different design goals - something you could walk up to and get running in seconds. So here it is JSimpleUnit - a simple unit testing framework for JavaScript. If you need something more mature, by all means go with JsUnit, but if you just want to write a few quick tests and see red/green download JSimpleUnit now.

Rory Blyth Brings a Tear to My Eye
I really wish I could have been at the XML DevCon. Thankfully, lots of bloggers are summarizing some of the goings on at this year's conference. Among the funniest of these is Rory Blyth who is so freaking funny that reading his posts literally leaves me crying from the laughter. Check out some of his "illustrations" below. The first two are his impressions of Don Box and Tim Ewald.
