Ballmer goes baloney And I always thought that the big execs in M$FT were smart!!! If they do make hardware for $100, no one will pay $200 ~ $300 for the OS on it. If that $100 pc comes up, instead of seeing M$ST $$$ go up, it will definetly go down. Why ? Cos people would use Linux by then ;) or maybe even a GBrowser based services.

Smoky Mountains and Blue Ridge Parkway This weekend I drove down to Smoky Mountains and saw some fall colors. Fall colors are amazing when you experience it first time. But an overdose can kill some enthusiasm. Smoky and Blue Ridge Parkway have amazing roads to drive through and great over look spots. I drove about 1000 miles over the weekend, and enjoyed a lot.

No I have not stopped bloggin ;) Some other ppl I know have..Is it that it just gets on too much to put so much out? Maybe !! I have not blogged for few days (more than a mnth) cos I was not well for few days and just didnt sit down and blog. (Am almost recovered now ..from what ever I had...) So I am thinking I need to put in new links on the sidebar here. Btw are you on Orkut ? Its good. I know there are at least a dozen more sites like this. And wasnt Six Degrees the first of such almost 4-5 yrs back ?

Rule Engines and Declarative Programming Come to Java [Aug. 19, 2004] In the past one year a lot of attention has been given to rules engine and declarative programming. Having worked for 4 yrs on Rules driven enterprise projects, this kind of attention to this field seems pretty exciting. At Selectica I was involved in implementing business solutions using Selectica technology, and it gave me a good insight on this world. But I learnt more about the technology when I came out. Almost all Rules engines pretty much implement the famous Rete Alog, and all claim to do bunch of things. I really wanted to design rules engine which can be used to drive "agent software". I believe that rules driven agent software could prove to be a 'disruptive' technology.
