Predicting 2010: Wisdom of Sheep or Silence of the Crowds?
“The wisdom of crowds” is a phrase that often evokes lofty thoughts of how collective wisdom and collaborative effort can be harnessed to achieve truly remarkable outcomes. However, like most things, there is a fine line between hype and reality, especially when it comes to online content and social networking.
Goodbye to Digital Decade
A day more and first decade of this century will be over. And what a decade it has been, marked with blistering pace of digital revolution which has left everything in sight singed. Such has been impact that decade is being called a digital decade. In span of 10 years we have seen massive changes thanks to advances in digital technology, explosion of internet and unleashing of waves of innovations. Come to think about it, …
Avatar, reuse and model driven software development
Last week my daughter Sam (13), her friend Joey and I went to see the movie Avatar in 3D at the IMAX theatre in Rotterdam. Following up on the hype and reading reviews I just got curious. Especially after reading an interview with director James Cameron, who previously directed Aliens and Titanic.

2010: Bazaar or still the Cathedral?
This period of year is the time to look back and especially look ahead. Therefore I challenge you to think about 2010: Will it be the year of the cathedral or the bazaar?

Merry Xmas, I’ve Just Hacked Your Kindle!
And all it took was just eight days and a challenge on an Internet forum for two hackers to do just that. I wonder what’s next. Are we likely to witness the rise of mainstream hacking contests, perhaps a “Hack Idol” type reality show hosted by characters like DVD Jon?
Questions on smart use cases. Part III – Stereotypes and minimal use case specifications
Smart use cases have become a fairly straightforward requirements technique that we have introduced in many different types of projects, such as Java, .NET, BI, SOA, SAP projects. Often I receive questions on how to apply smart use cases in projects, this time from Ron Kersic (Capgemini). Ron: If you apply smart use cases and the associated stereotypes, do smart use case specifications become unnecessary? If so, this is a massive unique selling point, and …
Testing the Cloud, a thought on the fogginess.
The cloud is (or will be) next big thing in IT, so this will also affects testing. More so because the doubts organizations seem to have on this concept, involve the quality characteristics typically adressed by testing. This blog is a thought on the fogginess of the cloud.
In 2010, Twitter will be the pulse of the planet
It’s the end of year, a time of looking back, and ahead. A fun time to make predictions, and look back at predictions made earlier – although that usually is much less fun I predict that: everyone will have a Twitter account in 2010 Every company will also have one, and use it too There will be Twitter boards in public places, public ones as well as private ones, some of which will be censored …
