Software engineer wanted. If you're graduating this year, check it out. I can definitely recommend these people as bosses for your first job.

Nice feature in Swing: Dynamic layout.

About this: quote from last week's episode of Het Geslacht De Pauw:

- Which internet are you using?
- Google

Not nearly as funny as in the program, but proving my point nevertheless :)

That-new-user-interface-experience-that-Google-uses-in-Gmail-and-Google-Suggest-etcetera-technology now has a shorter name: ajax. It gives me a clean feeling.

Just noticed this: go to Google Suggest, and type "ww". Be amazed by the first result on your list ...

Some years ago, we tried to gather some former employees of the notorious The E-Corporation in an Orkut group. The effort failed miserably: you can't get people to subscribe and post random stuff on such a site.

Lately, however, more and more collegues are spotted in the blogging world. Blogging seems to be a much more interesting way to keep in touch with people you want to keep in touch with, but which you can't phone every week.

Just to inspire not-yet-blogging collegues, here's an overview of the ecorp blogs I spotted (risking the rise of a Planet E-corp). (Mail me if you want on/off this list.) Only urls and blog titles, finding out who the actual people are is considered an exercise for home.

Stole some inspiration from Michel:

... as you can read at Michel's weblog (Dutch). Since our little country doesn't host such rich people every day, this event even got the evening news. At one point, a face came in the picture, and I was thinking "I know that guy. Hmm. Ah right, that's Microsoft's spokesman for Belgium." And then, his name appeared on screen: "Peter Vanvelthoven, Secretary of the State for Informatisation." These are scary times...
