Two more articles on Pim Fortuyn that give more insight in what is happening at this moment in Rotterdam and the Neherlands. National Review Online: Murder in Holland  Adam Curry: The big lie

Tuesday, May 07, 2002

Just been to the house of Pim Fortuyn, it's 500 meters from our offices. It was a very impressive silent display of disbelief, grief and devistated hope. Adam curry's weblog is constant source of news and gives a balanced view on who Pim Fortuyn was.

I'm very shocked on the murder on the Rotterdam politician Pim Fortuyn, yesterday was a black day for the Netherlands and it's democracy.

Tim has added a cool feature to our CADviewer for Groove 2.0. A new tab is automatically generated for each saved view in the CADdrawing.  Autocads Paperspace, Modelspace and Xrefs and are now supported. The really nice thing of the CADviewer in Groove is the collaborative viewing feature. Multiple spacemembers can zoom and pan together through all the drawings in the space showing the same details in realtime. All files are stored locally so collaborative viewing is very fast.

easy tutorial how to make OS-X aqua buttons in photoshop.

Tim is back from London and picked up his weblog.

Gave my weblog a fresh look based on the Beowulf theme by Michael Jardeen

A wonderful read: An Indian physicist puts a PC with a high speed internet connection in a wall in the slums and watches what happens.

first Groove 2.0 review by infoworld

Tuesday, April 16, 2002

Some amazing news from the BBC:   Ant supercolony dominates Europe "A species of Argentine ant introduced into Europe about 80 years ago has developed the largest supercolony ever recorded.  It stretches 6,000 kilometres - from northern Italy, through the south of France to the Atlantic coast of Spain - with billions of related ants occupying millions of nests. While ants from rival nests normally fight each other to the death, ants from the supercolony have the ability to recognise each other and co-operate - even if they come from nests at opposite ends of the colony's range. "

Suite75 is getting some nice publicity being mentioned in one of the offiicial press releases for Groove 2.0. :-) Beverly, MA - April 15, 2002 - Independent software developers and solution providers are rapidly converting their Groove® applications to take advantage of the latest capabilities unveiled today in Groove version 2.0, and many will be available within 60 days, the developers say. These applications will provide collaboration solutions for specific vertical business processes, such as architectural design and medical practice management, and for horizontal business processes, such as customer relationship management and request-for-proposal (RFP) processing. and Suite 75 is an IT firm that develops and supports smart IT solutions for the AEC (architecture/engineering/construction) industry. The company plans to port four of its core products - Archtect0r, the CADViewer, DrawingShare, and VRMLViewer - to the Groove platform, dramatically enhancing the capabilities of geographically dispersed teams to collaborate effectively on design projects. For more information visit http://www.suite75.com

Ofcourse Hugh Pyle has the answers on some questions about Groove from Radio inventor Dave Winer regarding the support of SOAP, XML-RPC and RSS within Groove 2.0.

Did receive some critical user feedback on the Architect0r tool for Groove. Hugo stopped by today to discuss some things regarding the Groove Rotterdam Conference of the end of this month. I was showing him the latest release of the Architect0r tool and his 3,5 year old son, Koen, was watching too. Seeing the colorful blocks flying around on the screen Koen ofcourse wanted to try it himself. The fact that his hands were almost 2x as small as the mouse didn't stop him at all. Within 5 minutes he was drawing objects  and rotating the views all by himself and seemed to enjoy it a lot. Getting him of the computer was more difficult than teaching him the tool. , thnx for testing Koen :-)

Tim and i have been very busy this week to wrap up the Architect0r tool for the upcoming Groove release. Seems like our tool will be the first 3rd party tool for Groove 2.0 available through Groove's official website. :-) Although there are still some install issues to be resolved, the tool seems to be working quite fine. Today i have been busy cleaning up our website because traffic is rising dramatically since friday.

Google dug up this discussion on the Magi forum with a lot of interesting comments directly from Ray Ozzie about Groove's architecture and possibilities, lots and lots of interesting stuff. A must read for any Groove developer.

Lots of excitement in the radio community  last week about the new directions Google is taking. With their new Web API's service it's now possible to develop custom applications using Google's searchengine . Really powerfull stuff.
