    Introduction to Bug Tracking tools

    At Gioorgi.com we will start a series of articles about bug tracking. As usual, our posts will be short, tight focused and open to comments and improvement.

    A software will be full of bugs at some point of its life, and every good developer/project manager must be ready to address these issue. Let’s see how to fix them….

    Hibernate Speedest introduction

    In this article I will introduce you to Hibernate 3 persistence framework. This article is worth to read, because give you a very fast track to Hibernate; I have used this tool for the past six years, when only the good 2.x series was out of there. Then I have the lucky of training two teams on two different and big projects, with a “zero time” to teach them hibernate. So I decided to put here my advices, hints, tips and tricks, for the rest of the guys around the World.

    Network computer: revisited

    The Network Computer was a bad idea born in the middle of the ‘90, and ended up to be completly wrong. Anyway, the current software tecnologhy (like AJAX, Google Gears, the psedo-new-ms-windows os called midori) can be helpuful to sketch a new idea of operating system.

    The network computer fails because it pretends to store all information (program, user data) on the server. Worst, it pretends a fee for application usage. But users preferred a buy-one model, because they didn’t like the renting model

    In the NC world the Software company will also hold all you private documents,  a very security concerns.

    And the software company must guarantee also nobody will look your important market strategy stored on a corel draw excel. This things costs too much.

    Even Apple is trying to remove DRM from Apple Store, selling some titles without it. The reason is simple: apple needs to upgrade its copy protection scheme, for avoiding some hacker will be able to crak it. But this costs too much!

    Let’s see what we can think now, after 10 years, a bunch of iPhone/EEPC out of there and Open Source full of life…

    Designing Interfaces with Balsamiq

    In the last seven months I have the need of sketching a bunch of interfaces, but I cannot find a valid tool. I was a Software Architect of a big huge project, busy also on other smaller projects as project manager.

    I need a rapid way to sketch use cases, to pass them to a very young team.

    Web interfaces are not easy to design, and we was in a very weird situation: the team was forced to use DAOs, with no O/R mapping tool. So I need also to map some interfaces to a database model, to help them building the model and the view classes

    After some search, I ended up with MS Visio.

    MS Visio is great, but too difficult to use, doing training is hard and so I must discourage its use. Worst, Visio costs a lot, and it is not included with the standard MS-Office Tools.

    Visio offers only WinXP look&Feel, which is not the best for designing agnostic web interfaces.

    Thank you to a friend of mine, I have the discovered the BalsamIQ Mockup project. Let’s see why it is a so good solution.
