-    Dec 31, 2008: `Building Documentation <E20081231181703.html>`_



    I like to document.  It's a way of thinking things through, as well as a way to memorialize design decisions.  But I hate using big, clunky desktop editors.

-    Nov 24, 2008: `Open Source In The News <E20081124102444.html>`_



    Check the InformationWeek analysis of enterprise adoption of open source software. 

-    Oct 10, 2007: `My Bias is Showing <E20071010062326.html>`_



     Why Python?  Is it just because I know Python better than Java?

-    Aug 25, 2007: `Something Else I Invented <E20070825075843.html>`_



    I've invented some pretty cool stuff.  However, I never seem to "finish" it, or package it for distribution.  And, mine don't have a high degree of "completeness of vision", they mostly did one thing pretty well.

-    Jul 04, 2007: `What I love about Python == what I hate about the word of open source <E20070704103749.html>`_



    I thought my quick and dirty HTML scraper was cool.  However, `Beautiful Soup <http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/>`__  is certainly more complete, and might be easy-enough to extend.

-    Jul 03, 2007: `What I love about Python == What I hate about the HTML mixed-content model <E20070702200105.html>`_



    In a few hours, one can knock out a piece of software that manages to derive normalized data from pretty random HTML.  Here's how.

-    Jun 22, 2007: `Django Project, Application and Database Naming <E20070622152523.html>`_



    When you start building something in Django, it's hard to pick a name that has the right level of evolvability.  I think I'm getting the hang of it, but maybe someone has a better suggestion.

-    Feb 26, 2007: `PyCon 2007 (Revised) <E20070226153515.html>`_

    Wow!



-    Nov 16, 2003: `My open source projects <E1310288551.html>`_

    `ZOPE.ORG <http://old.zope.org>`__   has a place for some my Python projects
