No Rails, Some Seaside

I have not been doing any Seaside work for a number of months owing to the fact that my little project with the Lotto Pool fell through and I was trying to get something else going but that didn't happen either. So, I was just doing offline stuff which was not really helping me get ahead at all but it did give me some distance from the things that I was trying to do but not succeeding. This may or may not have been good at all but I did get some research done on virtualization.

Anyway, here's Cagayan de Oro City with another one: Cagayan de Oro City. My Cebu City site has made pr1, surprise, surprise. Dumaguete is still in the boondocks as far as Google goes but Dumaguete has made some headway. Check out: Jai Alexander.

Web Stuff

No one can say that the Internet is boring or that trying to make sense of Internet Programming is tedious. If one is interested in Web Programming, one can have one's pick of different platforms to use. Depending on one's temperament and one's level of expertise, one can usually find a framework that will suit one's temperament. For my part, I researched first before committing to a particular flavor of programming tools. Most of these tools share common properties and capabilities and I do believe that underneath the differences there are legitimate facilities that will justify one's commitment to these tools whatever they may be.

ballet, banking, basketball, baskets, beatles, bipolar-disorder, blogging, bolivia, boracay, buddhism, building, bukidnon, bulldogs, burma, business-finance, business-jets, butterfly, cagayandeoro, camera-phone, cancer-treatment, cars-trucks,cats, cebucity, celebration, cell-phones, censorship, cherry, china, chingsweb, chocolate, cholera, christ, christianity, coffee, communication, computer-programming, condos, cooperatives, cosmetic-surgery, country-music, credit-cards,

For my part, I chose Smalltalk after having read up and tasted the flavors of different object-oriented languages. Smalltalk comes with the benefit of the depth and insight of Alan Kay and the scientists of PARC who made possible these tools that make programming not only fun but cool as well.

Come into these sites: Squeak Smalltalk Adventure, The Ordinary Life, Politics: Divine Right of Kings and Presidents, Creation, Life, Consciousness.

Reading about the early days of Smalltalk helps to bring home the sense of how things were in those days and the bold vision of what ought to be, the vision that has now made simple and ordinary the different tools like visual widgets and objects that model the real world.

Our favorites are: Ching's World, Green Tea, Dumaguete, Cebu City, Cagayan de Oro City, Papoy, Moira Trinity Cagayan de Oro, Dumaguete, Cebu are all in the Philippines in the world of Ching.

Seaside and Ching's World

Ching's World. Essentially, an experiment, a test balloon, a toy website which had very modest ambitions. Doing static html for a while gets one tired and eyes red from having to check where tags should go and checking if everything lines up correctly.

Ching's World was an attempt to learn Seaside. Learning is easier and accomplished faster if done hands-on style. Merely theorizing and imagining what might be a nice page does not help one to learn web programming. Simple things like rendering an image was a challenge when working on Ching's World.

Cebu City cries out for content. There is much to be done and one can get overwhelmed very easily by the idea of capturing Cebu City on a web page. How is it to be done? What aspect of the city needs to be highlighted?

Dumaguete sees the world with gentle eyes and this is how she likes it. Cagayan de Oro City is more in-your-face. The Night Cafe is one such thing. It bites your ass when you try to navigate Divisoria on weekends. While Dumaguete lulls you with the gentle slapping of the waves on the seawall of the Boulevard, Dumaguete challenges your tolerance when metal vie against metal in making progress an inch at a time. Cagayan de Oro is less forgiving to the pedestrian and motorist alike on weekends.
