Say No to license software

In a IT market that is defined by today’s tight IT budgets, saving on software licenses can mean the difference between financial failure and success for a software development project. While our customer have capital for investment on commercial-grade application servers, sometimes we find hard that our company don't have capital or funds for developer licenses of these application servers. Out of necessity, our company developing and implementing a process that allows for development on top of an open source stack, while production delivery relies on a commercial application server. Initial concerns that implementation differences and the different runtime environments would lead to issue-prone deployments turned out to be unjustified. While different application servers do indeed show incompatibilities, we found that we were able to avoid common pitfalls through preparation and disciplined coding. As the result. Our company has been change to use Eclipse Development Package compare paying a sum of money on windows development tools kits. meanwhile, Windows Web Hosting has been change to linux web hosting. From here. Costing on license software has been decrease to minimum. On Next article, i will describe some information abt linux web hosting and eclipse

New Open Source Flash Player

Free Software Flash player called GNU Gnash is now in active development. The development is apparently occurring without the help or support of Adobe in any way. Flash player has always been free, but not in the Free and Open Source Software sense, as it is a proprietary application licensed under a closed source license. GNU Gnash is licensed under the GNU GPL. "Gnash is GPL2'd, and the Free Software Foundation has the copyright," GNU Gnash maintainer Rob Savoye told internetnews.com. "So the standalone player can be used by anyone, but the Flash player code can only be used by other free software projects under the terms of the GPL." The FSF, which is currently undertaking a review of the GPL has actually listed the development of Gnash as one of its top six high-priority projects.

Introduction of Ajax

Ajax terms is Asynchronous Javascript + XML; Ajax enables a Web page to be changed in the browser without refresh or refer back to the original server to reload entire content of the web pages. This leads to far faster response times , and a save a lot of bandwith resources; GoogleMap is perhaps the most famous example. Essentially it turns the browsers into a lightweight platform able to drag and display Map smoothly on the browser. The Ajax method is using a combination of: * XHTML and CSS for marking up and styling information. * DOM (Document Object Model) accessed with a client-side scripting language like JavaScript and JScript, to dynamically display and interact with the information display * XMLHttpRequest object that able exchange data asynchronously with web server with some of Ajax frameworks.. * XML is standard format as transfering data by facilitate the sharing of data across different systems, particularly systems connected via the Internet.. There are a lot of Ajax Framework on the internet like XAJAX, SAJAX and etc. perhaps you can explore yourself on ajaxworld. meanwhile, There is a lot AJAX IDE will be developed soon. so, web programmer will be saving a lot of time on debugging. But, currently i available to get AJAX IDE is myeclipse.

Hard to find nice and bug free open source

OpenSource's problem on sourceforge is there are too many projects. Myself also getting confuse to determine which one should he/she give a try. me sometimes also got difficultly to try a new open source application that have very good feature but in fact, These programs are good in new experimental features but always come with bad interface and bugs needed to fixed. I hope there would be a website that post productive OpenSource application. So the open source hardcore users can insert their reviews and give less times try to find a program that satisfied user.
