I didn't go outside. The girlfriend had covered our chairs with plastic to cover them from an unusually hard rain a couple of nights ago and I couldn't be bothered to remove them and put them back on. The sun was about to go down soon enough anyway :)

Instead, I surfed the web. Surprised? I didn't think so either. My surfing revealed a few interesting sources of information and entertainment:

• First of all, there's a software company out there that sounds way better than my current employer...
• Second, John Davies (from C24) has finally written up something regarding the huge JavaSpaces project he's been working on for ages
• Third, Sun and MS are about to start a soap opera of their own, streamed live via the Web. Or maybe not.
• Finally, I have to wonder how can a Java-to-XML serializer not include a sample of the output?

• Tim Bacon posted a link to a nice collection of organisational patterns
• Dale Emery has created a "tool" for measuring activities' value
• I love HP for supporting linux on laptops (for more, see linux-laptop.net)

Does anyone else think that today's Dilbert reminds a bit too much about plan-driven project management?

I'm sure many have seen it already, but...
