Finally cancelled my World Of Warcraft account
- back to RL ;)
|
It was a more than 2 years long fun and nice ride, PvP and PvE, and I am still amazed about the energy and the "life" boiling under the world of Warcraft. WoW is an amazing universe but something is missing, and I can't describe the feeling. Playing WoW lately is not the same thing as it used to be; probably it's too easy? It is the time to move on and focus on the things I like more; family and friends, iPhone and Java development, open source, cooking and yoga, and probably helping my wife to build her own business :) |

To all the WarCrafters out there: I salute you, and probably we'll meet again in the years to come! /bow Valahus, Denarian & McVoid of Nazgrel |

jQuery, DWR and RESTLET; JPublish demo web application available
-using jQuery to make REST calls and DWR for accessing server side scripting
For those of you asking for examples of integrating jQuery, DWR and Rest with JPublish, I just uploaded a very simple demo at Google code, in case you're interested. This is a 5.7M file and you can get if from here: http://jpublish.googlecode.com/files/jp-jq-testing.zip
This demo is using the latest version of jQuery, DWR and it is based on the JPublish from trunk. Using RESTLET 1.1.3. All the required libraries are included in the zip file.
Should you have any question about this demo or JPublish in general, please do not hesitate to ask. Have fun!
Awesome future for the java web apps: Stax.net
Elastic Java application platform for EC2
I am using Heroku for my Rails apps and I am loving it, what's not to love about Heroku?! :)
But I am also a Java developer, and like many others I am crying for a decent Java hosting provider. Bright future ahead: Stax.net. Stax will probably become for Java what Heroku is for Rails, which is awesome news.
You can apply for a beta account and start playing with some of the templates available from Stax; basic servlet support, wicket, etc.
For testing purposes, I decided to try creating a JPublish based application and to host it at Stax. 10 minutes later and the app was up and running, you can see it here:
JPublish @ Stax.net (an application based on the JPublish hello app available for download at Google.)
Drop me an email in case you're interested to install your own JPublish app in the cloud at Stax, and make sure you visit their Wiki page for more Stax related details: Stax Wiki
More details to follow :)
