I’ve spent way more time than I should have the last couple weeks working to help migrate a website built against Jive Forums to run against a Clearspace X instance. As part of the migration, one of the things I did was to move all the data syndication that had been done with RSS and [...]
This morning I spent some time playing with WSE, .NET and Java. I knew Fiddler could listen in on conversations between IE and the world, but I never was able to get it to listen to conversations between me and well, me (ie: localhost). Turns out, according to the well named help page, that

I got a great email from Tamás in response to my last post who pointed out that the straight copy of deploy.wsdd to server-config.wsdd doesn’t cut it. More importantly, he mentioned that there is a utility that ships with Axis that allows you to generate server-config.wsdd from your deploy.wsdd (or from multiple deploy.wsdd if you [...]

The fun with dates didn’t stop at the last post. This one took longer to track down but I learned alot more from it. I’m working on both sides of an Apache Axis SOAP implementation where the server side system persists events and client applications can query to find events and CRUD events [...]
My latest project at work launched a couple weeks ago, unfortunately there isn’t much to look at, but it’s not like I’m a Flash developer, so unless I start writing Windows apps, no one will ever be able to see my work anyway. Alas, a major portion of the project involved consolidating some business [...]
A couple weeks ago I attended the Boston .NET User Group to hear Jeffrey McManus give a talk on how ebay is using web services. I took a bunch of notes during his presentation, which I’m putting up here semi-edited. The first part of the talk was mainly about ebay the company; how much [...]
The February Amazon Web Services Newsletter had some pretty cool applications:
Blogfuel: “Use blogfuel to create a link to an individual item at amazon (using ASIN Search) to illustrate your book review. Or place the code in the sidebar of your blog as a “What I am currently reading feature”. You have control over the width, [...]
Amazon’s latest Web Services Newletter includes a couple items of note:
· Amazon Web Services Watch — the “… the cream of the crop from the Amazon Developer’s Forum”
