DBPL - Information Systems
A special edition of the journal Information Systems has just been released. It contains a selection of papers from DBPL'05. This edition was edited by myself and Christoph Koch.
It's been a long time in coming - but enjoy! There are some great papers.
Visited Countries
Visited Countries is a cute little web app where you select the countries you've visited and it generates a map - just like my one above.

New look live
http://www.live.com/ has changed its front page style. I think it's an improvement - what do you think? (I posted a while ago someone's thoughts on redesigning another well-known search engine's front page.)

HTC Touch Diamond
Readers of this blog will recall that I'm a happy user of an HTC Touch Windows Mobile Phone.
Nick pointed me to this page with a teaser video for the new HTC Touch Diamond. Wow! In the absence of an iPhone with Active Sync, this looks like a really nice phone. These guys know how to tweak the Windows UI!
OOPSLA 08
Great news: Two papers by friends have just been accepted for publication at OOPSLA'08, which this year will be in Nashville, Tennessee.
- Matthew and Dino's paper on JStar, which is their separation logic based tool for verifying Java programs.
- Claudio's paper on his implementation of joins in the production Visual Basic Compiler.
Well done guys!
