Camino Released 1.0 alpha
Camino, the macintosh only port of the mozilla browser with a mac os x native front end (think of it as a hybrid of Firefox and Safari) is out.
Seeing as I think camino is probably the best mac os x browser out there (Opera and OmniWeb users, prove me wrong) I would recommend all the OS X users to give it a week.
Plus, I plan on doing bug triage for them in October, so I'll be part of an OS X Open Source project! Yay!

What in the world is going on here???? You are beyond a crackpot my friend...well beyond. I think it is time for a more accurate tagline.
I must say that you often confuse me. In one moment you talk about not just being out for yourself, but that is pretty much all that you ever talk about...your cool self.
Also with so much nonsense on this blog it seems that you have far to much time on your hands. All this time spent babbling on and on could have propelled you much farther ahead with your new found passion in moonlight software development. I wonder if you could even effectively code an MS Access application? I am inclined to say highly unlikely and therefor by your own standards put you at a sub middle school level.
So, please just chill...to the next episode.
Oh yeah and when you delete this comment just remember that you are defeating the whole purpose of having a comment feature. After all what type of comments would you expect??

Captain Shiner, (or should I say Gaybo, as that's the website you put in as your homepage)
This is MY blog, so naturally, what do you think its going to be (as the canadians say) aboot?
Do you think I would be so rude as to intrude on other people's privacy just because I know them?
Don't answer. I don't really care.
I mentioned names a couple of time on this blog, Gaybo, and some of the times, I regret it. One of those doors of friendship is just barely opening now, after I wrote a hall of fame hissy about what was a trival, trivial thing.
So yeah, MY blog, about my THOUGHTs is mostly going to be about MY PERSPECTIVE.
And seeing as I'm getting about 1000 hits/month, it seems like people are a little interested in what I have to say.
But thank you for acknowledging my coolness. I find I get along better with people when they recognize my "cool self". I pride myself on being able to laugh at myself, and also appreciate my accomplishments. People just seem easier to deal that way.
It sure beats fumbling over your ego, and trying to size everyone up as a potential competitor for the meaningless attaboys used by some to measure their worth. That just makes you look like a fool in front of everyone.
Doesn't it?
And as to not being out for myself, I am proud that I was able to get friends of mine jobs shortly after they graduated. I know they're grateful, they have student loans they're going to need to pay off. I'm even feeling a little sorry that I never reconciled with my psycho ex-roommate. His powerbook would mean I would have one more alpha/beta tester. And it would be one more person I could hook up with interviews. I feel that helping people that way is a form of networking. Maybe someday down the line, they'll help me out. Maybe they already have.
But I'm not really going to mention who I've helped by name. Some of them might be trying to leave hostile work environments. Some might be trying to leave a job discreetly. And in some cases, the person I helped might just be a very private person, who's feelings could be summed up as "blogging about me is NOT for you."
And as to my software development skills, this isn't the time or the place, but I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that unless you're working someplace that ends in "oogle", you're really not one to judge. I do know that I'm participating in a peer-review process with my development team, helping identify common processes that can be automated/enhanced with software tools, and implementing a requirements-based unit test system for our database backend. All of these things help make my successes repeatable. All of them increase our scoring on the CMU's CMM score for Software Engineering.
Something tells me you're still writing code that isn't properly reusable, isn't unit tested, or even black-box tested by a team of dedicated testers. I doubt you've read any books on software engineering in small teams. I bet you don't even know what the Agile Manifest is, much less have read it. And I feel confident in betting this, because you're mature enough to leave comments here wondering what I can or can't do, after complaining that MY blog is too "all about me".
I bet people regularly treat you as a child. And your response is to throw a tantrum about how people condescend to you. How's that working out for you, gaybo?
Don't answer. I don't really care.
