Denver JUG End of Year Party Tomorrow's Denver JUG meeting should be a lot of fun.
Our DJUG meeting this Wednesday, December 12th will be our annual end of year get together. It will start at 5:30 PM and we'll be meeting at the Wynkoop Brewery and Restaurant located at 18th and Wynkoop in the upstairs area where the pool tables and dart boards are.
No presentations, free pool and beer. What's not to like? I'll be there with bells on.
Next Thursday, the Denver Open Source User Group is having a party as well. It's at 6:00 at Darcy's Irish Pub. Cheers! Posted in Java at Dec 11 2007, 12:24:46 PM MST 4 Comments
Life with a 30" Monitor Back in August, I asked if it was better to have one 30" monitor or two 23" monitors? After many comments, I concluded:
After reading The Large Display Paradox, it seems like I should either find something like WinSplit Revolution for the Mac, or get 2 monitors. I agree with everything that Jeff Atwood says about maximizing windows, that's why I originally thought two 23" monitors might be better.
For some reason, I threw this conclusion out the window in September and bought myself a 30" monitor. Within minutes, I concluded He who says 30" monitors are no good has never owned one. It's simply one of the coolest computing devices I've ever purchased. It makes developing in my home office simply awesome.
Below is a picture of my home office. The fireplace and "AirTunes to Bose System" make it one of my favorite offices ever.

Big Changes for Joe and DWR I'm thrilled to see DWR join the Dojo Foundation and Joe Walker join SitePen. This couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I first met Joe at the Ajax Experience in San Francisco 2 years ago. Great guy, awesome open source project. Well done Joe! Posted in Java at Dec 11 2007, 10:07:55 AM MST 1 Comment
