ESUG 2011 in Edinburgh
Each year I try to attend at least one developer conference. Earlier OOPSLA was a given but it lost its appeal quite a few years back and now it is not even called OOPSLA anymore. As a die hard Smalltalker I instead attended the ESUG conference in Brest 2009 and it was easily the most rewarding conference I ever have attended! Missed last year in Barcelona but this year I am going to Edinburgh for a week of Smalltalking.

WebOS 3.0 is coming - with Enyo!
A few weeks ago I joined the Early Access program that HP/Palm has been offering for a while and I have been toying with the new WebOS 3.0 (SDK with emulator) that appeared in public on the 1st of july when the HP Touchpads hit the stores in the US. Since a week I also have a Palm Pre 2 phone running WebOS 2.1, hopefully to be upgraded later to 3.0.

Node.js vs Nginx/Squeak, part 1
