Let's Build the Web We Want
I use Dreamweaver. I have since version 1.0.
I’m a fan.
That said, as you would imagine, I very rarely use the WYSIWYG features. I mostly use the text editor and the site management features (including Subweaver, a handy SVN inetgration.)

We launched a new version of Cramer’s web site last week and I’m pretty happy with it. Continue reading “I’m Happy That This One is Live”
This being a technology blog, with plenty of code samples being posted on a regular basis, it’s no surprise I give soem thought as to how that code is displayed. Personally I’ve gone for the old school, green on black text (using the excellent code font Consolas, where possible.) I like the way it looks.

I’m very pleased to announce that effective today we are wrapping up the webOS early access program. We are doing this because today we opened up the program to everyone and released our new public developer portal at http://developer.palm.com. This is the culmination of a lot of hard work by a lot of people here at Palm, and I want to be the first to thank them for making this happen.
This is one more step in delivering webOS to all developers and providing the tools they need to build great applications for Palm phones.
Please go register and join us on the new server. For a change this significant, I’m sure there are going to be some rough edges and broken links. If you run into one, please let us know by posting on the new forums. If you have trouble registering or can’t access the forums for some reason then please email me at pdn@palm.com and I’ll work with you to resolve it.
Head on over to the Developer portal to download it. I’ll be hacking away at every spare moment, and will be posting my findings here. Fun times.

My presentation went well, I think. It started a little later than I would have liked, and I didn’t have any water (insane? yes.) but overall it was a lot of fun. People seemed interested, which is the important part.
The really interesting news is that the presentation was recorded, so I should be able to post a version to Youtube at some point in the future.
Thanks to the folks over at the The Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University for hosting me and working with Jason to get the camera equipment set up.
