One of the many reasons why I develop in Java

Research finds Java code most secure

From www.itweek.co.uk :

New research from software security specialist Fortify reveals that bugs are far less common in Java compared with commercial C/C++ code
Dave Bailey, IT Week, 05 Mar 2007
Application code security specialist Fortify Software will today unveil research from its Java Open Review (JOR) showing that there are "significantly fewer bugs in open-source Java components than in commercial C/C++ programs". Fortify founder Roger Thornton said that the difference was "an order of magnitude fewer".

This is in fact one of the main reasons, I switched from using C/C++ (used it for more than 10 years) in 1995 to Java.

Having to think about memory management, dangling pointers, uninitialized variables distracts you from what you try to achieve.

Also one of the nice things in Java was that everything is what it seems (no preprocessor).

It's not easy to write website content.

Yesterday, I started to think about the content on my website.

I am a good software writer, but writing copy for a website is not my strong point. (especially when it is not in my native language).

So what kind of keywords would I use ?

www.wordtracker.com to the rescue.

It seems that all the keywords I was thinking about are not what people search for and the keywords that they are searching for have to much competition.

It seems I will have to be very creative with this.

Anyway, I would urge anybody who is serious about his website, to try wordtracker. It really can give you valuable information.

What is BrainStreamer? You Ask.

BrainStreamer is my view of how a Personal Information Manager should be.

I have tried numerous PIM software but they all don’t work for me.

This is something strange, considering how much PIM software exists out there.
