Eclipse goes Server-side: "The Eclipse incubator Equinox has worked it out: it looks like with Eclipse 3.2 and it's underlying OSGi [1] services, you will be able to create plug-ins that deploy to a servlet container.
With this, you can package functionality, like code, but also servlets, JSPs and other http resources in Eclipse-style plug-ins for the server-side. You can deploy ("register") and un-deploy while the container WAR keeps running. The working demo shows this with Tomcat 5.5."
.. interesting .. an indication that big new things are coming .. a service platform for feature Eclipse? ..
JotSpot-Powered Video Clip Sharing Service: "Mandalan Media recently launched the beta of strmz.com (pronounced 'streams'), a JotSpot-powered video clip-sharing destination. Strmz.com features up-to-the minute videos from major media outlets such as NBC, HBO, and Comedy Central, along with popular video blogs and top-rated content from video upload services like Google Video."

.. interesting Video portal .. definitely much nicer UI than Google Video .. have to check if I can integrate the RSS feeds with iTunes ..
A nice list of ERP-type of applications written in Java.
"The ability to collect, store, and manage data is increasing quickly, but our ability to understand it remains constant. In an attempt to gain better understanding of data, fields such as information visualization, data mining and graphic design are employed, each solving an isolated part of the specific problem, but failing in a broader sense: there are too many unsolved problems in the visualization of complex data. As a solution, this dissertation proposes that the individual fields be brought together as part of a singular process titled Computational Information Design. "
.. there is even such a thing as a cool looking dissertation ..
Behind the magic curtain: "Next week Steve Jobs of Apple will grab media attention with another simple-looking stage show. Mike Evangelist tells the insider secrets of his gruelling preparation "

"Travel Web Services enables you to plan your trips, explore destinations, find airfares, get ratings and reviews for hotels, find things to do, and share your plans with others. The Yahoo! Travel web services enable you to build applications that use the trip plan data from the Yahoo! Travel Trip Planner. You can also place a Yahoo! Travel FareChase search form on your web site using our HTML templates."
... again an interesting API from Yahoo .. still have to figure out for what to use it .. think, think ...
Recommended research papers: "I keep getting requests to recommend papers in personalization, recommendations, and information retrieval, mostly from students.
I've been responding to these individually, but that seems inefficient, so I decided to go ahead and post a list of a few of my favorites.
The focus in this list is on breadth, mostly surveys that provide a good introduction, mostly work that used very large data sets. Follow citations on Citeseer if you want to explore in more depth.

.. cool, thanks Greg! ..
