Joel Spolsky has

July 24, 2000 by Michael Boyle

a weblog called Joel on Software. He wrote a really good analysis of the Microsoft .NET stuff the other day entitled Microsoft Goes Bonkers. He’s right too – there’s no there there with dotNET. I would only add that the big problem is not a technological one, it’s cultural. That’s why I like Deepleap and sites like it.

In other news, Swallowing Tacks again sports a new look, definitely making the argument that Elise is the most active re-designer of her personal site around. I always like what she does, though, so that’s not a complaint in the least.

Vanessa’s Eleven Seconds seems to be undergoing some radical re-branding.

I’ve been trying to

June 16, 2000 by Michael Boyle

lay off the cross-blog posts a wee bit lately, but Heather has made a good point very eloquently – something to remember. People earn respect, but a certain amount of respect is due everyone just by dint of their humanity. At work, that’s the least one should expect. For my own part, I have to remember how good I have it at my job, no matter that I’m slightly cynical and jaded from time to time.
