The Java Module System with the new module keyword support in the Java language will be ready to integrate to the OpenJDK Modules project in a week or two. This blog hopes to provide a simple tutorial to help you get started developing, building and
A prototype of the OSGi repository for supporting OSGi bundles in the Java Module System is now available in the OpenJDK Modules project. Looking for feedback and contribution from the community.
Meet you at the JavaOne Modularity session and BOF on Wednesday (May 7th) to share more about the Java Module System and OSGi support. We will show some simple demos of the Java Module System and how a Java module imports an OSGi bundle.
A draft specification for supporting OSGi bundles in the Java Module System is made available to the JSR 277 Expert Group to continue the OSGi interoperability discussion.
One of the significant features in the new Java SE 6u5 release is the ability to register the JDK installations through Sun Connection. You will learn more about this new JDK registration feature in this blog.
This blog introduces you a Sun Service Tags Technology enabling automatic discovery of the tagged systems, software, and services. JDK and JRE 6 update 4 will become discoverable when installed on Solaris and Linux service tag enabled systems.
Just posted a book report for Yes! for my buddies at American Express. This is the best business book I've read this year. Please check out my posting here. One of the co-authors is Robert Cialdini; he is The Man when it comes to persuasion and influence. Every entrepreneur, sales, and marketing person should read this book.
Yahoo’s Search Blog has posted a list of some of the most promising new web apps being built using its BOSS search platform. BOSS is a radically open API that launched last month that allows developers to utilize much of Yahoo’s core search data without the restrictions seen on most other search APIs.

Jose Antonio Vargas at the Washington Post wonders how we could make the upcoming presidential debates interactive, given that the teaming with MySpace is disappointing.
If given a choice between having more YouTube snowmen asking questions or hearing McCain and Obama talk with one another for an hour with no moderator and no questions, I would completely go for the YouTubeless version.
But, since that’s not going to happen except in “West Wing” reruns, I think the best we can
I've got about one and a half weeks before I start the roadtrip to Denver, and in that time I want to do some prep, if there's interest, with other bloggers who will be there, or people who are covering the convention remotely, or are just interested in what's happening there.
I have a great toolkit, code that can connect all the blogging and micro-blogging environments, Twitter, Identi.ca, FriendFeed and RSS of course, and probably most other kinds of connections you can think of.

What are your biggest issues, bugs and annoyances with Adobe AIR? I am specifically looking for input on both developers bugs, and end user bugs. I am not looking for input on features you would like added (Ill do that in another post).
We already have a pretty good idea of the main issues (based on the forums, bug reports, blogs, testing and twitter), but your comments here will be another useful data point.
As usual, you can always submit the issues directly to the AIR team here.
So, post your
So I finally got my hands on an iPhone 3G but am currently still favouring my iPhone 2.5G - why ? - The signal seems better- 3G signal is patchy at best and forget receiving calls when you have 3G on - horrible...- The battery life is **much** better on the original iPhone than on the 3G iPhone- All my accessories such as Power Monkey fit the original iPhone but not the new 3g iPhone as Apple in their wisdom changed the connector.- GPS is slow and actually I find that the triangulation usin
Michael Wesch is one of my personal heroes. Beginning with “The Machine Is Us/Ing Us,” he’s brought a fresh, thoughtful perspective to the social media that are (re)shaping our lives. His “A Vision of Students Today” is the strongest critique of the educational system you’ll ever see in under 5 minutes.
I had the fortune of meeting Michael when he spoke at IDEA 2007. He’s a warm, smart, passionate guy, and was readily able to contribute to the discussion
Forrester's Carey Schwaber recently wrote a nice post on the typical obstacles that application developers face, The "If Onlies" of App Dev. For example, if only “requirements were complete” or “there were enough time to test at the end of the life cycle" or "we weren’t constrained by legacy" among others. Using a transportation metaphor, Carey then suggests that changing the vehicle through approaches such as SOA and Agile processes can negate the problems
Well here’s an interesting post from someone at PWC consulting.

The way he’s presenting it, he appears to have seen to beginnings of an IT nirvana by linking business intelligence, rules and process management together to create a whole new “intelligent business process platform”, although it takes a “heroic effort” - no doubt through extensive services.
He also says that “enterpri

Earlier this week on Javalobby, I posted an extract from our monthly newsletter regarding our analysis of the ‘missing braces in If Statement’ rule firing and the potential bug involved.
If you omit braces and use Static Analysis tools it is a problem actually finding these bugs. Why? Because you probably have the rule turned off!
Having any tool tell you of violations in your code purely due to a stylistic preference will result in thousands of false positives and eventually demotivate the
Breaking News: The NASA Phoenix lander reported via Twitter that they have a confirmed find of water on Mars. A soil sample containing ice was heated up in the internal TEGA oven and H2O vapors were confirmed. Newsmedia are starting to cover the find as we speak. More social media mentions can be found via TechMeme.
The new iPhone 3G and the iPhone 2.0 software update can best be described as the most successful failure I can remember. Apple has sold an astounding number of phones and applications, and yet is failing in so many different ways:
MobileMe: A terribly bungled deployment that is still suffering through issues of data integrity and push between the desktop and the iPhone is not what users expect.
Lines and availability: Lines are long every day that phones are available, as a result of the terr
