Gmail contest winners

Gmail contest winners 06/14/2004 02:18 AM

First off, let me just say I got a ton of response to my gmail photo invites thing and among the entries I got far too many good ones to pick just a few. I actually used gmail's built-in tools to track everything. By labeling all incoming entries, I can see in one click that 118 people sent a photo link in. Of those, I put a star next to 36 I liked on first view. Of those, I narrowed them down to 31. Among those 31, there was something compelling about the colors, lighting, and/or subject matter and any one of ten could have had the top spots. I'm going with my gut reaction on first viewing but here are the three winning entries:

a kite photo, a net photo, & a sunset photo

It was really hard to pick the top three, as any one of these could have also been there. If I had more invites to give out, I would have thrown them all into this list, in no particular order:

§ § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § § §

I learned some things in this experiment. The biggest one is that when I said "send in your best photo" I figured that meant the best composition with the best lighting and most technically superior image. What most people sent was their finest memory captured on film, regardless of photo quality. It was eye-opening to me, and told me a lot about over a hundred strangers. I got to see many, many photos from vacations and untold numbers of sunsets. It's a fantastic way to experience meaningful moments in peoples' lives, by seeing these photos. I've been getting way too far into the technical side of photography for the last year or two and forgot that photography is first and foremost a way to record memories.

Overall, I got to see (and share here) many wonderful photos and memories from those that sent them in. I wish I had more invites to give and thank everyone for participating.

The final winners of the Freestyle Mix, and the Milita Mix contests have been announced on Mixter. The top eleven Freestyle Mix entries have won a spot on the Creative Commons release, The WIRED CD -- Ripped. Sampled. Mashed. Shared. (playing off the original WIRED CD), and free passes to the M3 Music Summit in Miami. The top track of the Militia Mix Contest won a spot on the next Fine Arts Militia Album Featuring Chuck D. Brian Hardgroove of Fine Arts Militia has this to say: "Overall, I would have been proud to put most of those mixes on the new record -- mad props to the producers."

We'd like to offer a huge thanks to all the contestants and judges, and specifically to Victor Stone for building Mixter and moderating the site (more on Mixter later).

swt and swing, cont'd.

swt and swing, cont'd. 01/06/2004 08:01 AM

Yesterday Russ was ranting (his term :)) on how Sun was botching it by not getting behind SWT, because SWT is, in his view, better than Swing. I have written about both a few times before, more recently in this short review of my initial impressions of developing with SWT, and earlier here , here and here among others. Specifically on what Russ is saying I had a couple of things to add. One is that, although I'm obviously partial on this :), I think that clevercactus shows that Swing interfaces need not feel out of place, or be slow, or whatever. And I think it looks better than LimeWire too :). IDEA is also a fine example IMO. However, it's true that all of that is subjective and that for hard-core Windows users there are small differences. For power users in particular the differences might indeed be difficult to accept. The situation is much better in other platforms though.

That aside, there is the other matter that Russ mentions, that of Sun not joining the Eclipse consortium. The main reason given for this is that, for all its platform appeal Eclipse is still, at heart, an IDE toolkit. If you doubt that's true, spend some time perusing the Eclipse APIs, and you'll notice how many times you have to use components from within the IDE package rather than "platform" packages (e.g., "org.eclipse.swt"). Restated, what I mean is that the boundaries between platform and IDE APIs are not clear at all, and I guess that some people would say that's precisely the point, Eclipse is both an IDE and a platform, and that's fine. Fine indeed, but what does that matter? Well, keep in mind that Sun has NetBeans to take care of. With its own community, and plugins, and additional tools, and so on. Were Sun to ditch NetBeans in favor of Eclipse as a platform, they would have to a) port all sorts of plugins and code to the new platform, not to mention "convert" their community, both of open source developers and third party developers, to Eclipse. This is by no means impossible, but it's not easy either.

Then there is the small matter of SWT. If Sun joined Eclipse, SWT would have to be included in the JDK would it not? Sun would have to maintain and release simultaneously three different windowing toolkits for each release: AWT, Swing, and SWT. That doesn't sound good either. And while I like some things of SWT, ditching Swing completely is to me not an option.

Why?

First, Swing does run on every single platform that the full JDK runs on. For example, some users today are running clevercactus on OS/2. That would be impossible if cc were written in SWT.

Second, Swing is, for all its complexity (or perhaps because of it) and incredibly rich and flexible toolkit. Much more so than SWT. Surely this will change as SWT evolves, but that's the reality at the moment. With SWT you are forced to write custom components more often than with Swing, as I discovered when I worked for about a week replicating the clevercactus UI using SWT.

And, finally (although this is a small matter compared to the two above), SWT still requires release of resources "by hand". I find this a horrible step back. Moreover, debugging becomes more difficult. Something might fail not just on your java code, not just on the SWT-to-Native code (say, if you're running it on Windows), but something might also fail at the Native component level. Suddenly bugs have to be tracked on three levels. SWT will be buggy for a while, particularly on non-Win32 platforms (Win32 support is pretty good). And Native errors are very difficult to pin down.

Please note, these are not reasons why "Swing is better than SWT" but reasons why I think Swing can't be discarded at the moment and for some time to come. And that puts Sun in a difficult position.

Ideally, yes, Sun would join Eclipse, ditch AWT in favor of SWT keeping the latter as an alternative to Swing, plus using something like the SWTSwing project to bridge between both worlds. But for the moment, staying out of Eclipse might have been a good choice by Sun to avoid creating even more confusion.

XAML and... Swing

XAML and... Swing 12/30/2003 01:17 AM

Let's see. There's this new language+API. It is, in theory platform independent. It's pretty high level. Below the high-level description, it runs on top of a virtual machine. It's verbose. Some people say it will never work.

Gotta be Swing, right?

How about XAML?

On Saturday Sam commented on a XAML example. He makes a number of good points. Which jump-started earlier XAML-related musings.

XAML will be Windows-only, so in that sense the comparison is stretched. But this is a matter of practice, in theory an XML-based language could be made portable (when there's a will there's a way). XAML was compared a lot to Mozilla's XUL, and rightly so, but I think there are some parallels between it and Swing as well.

One big difference that XAML will have, for sure, is that it will have a nice UI designer, something that Swing still lacks. On the other hand, I think that whatever code an automated designer generates will be horribly bloated. And who will be able to write XAML by hand? And: the problem of "bytecode protection" in Java comes back with XAML, but with a vengeance. How will the code be protected? Obfuscation of XML code? Really? How would it be validated then? And why hasn't anyone talked about this.

And another thing: Sun has shown in the past few years that they've taken a liking to countering Microsoft announcements with some of their own. ie., MS comes out with Web services, they come out with web services. MS does X, Sun does it too, but in Java. One wish: that Sun would ignore XAML and just continue improving Swing, and create a simple, good UI designer for Swing. Supposedly Project Rave will do this... but here's hoping there won't be any course corrections simply to show up Microsoft. Please, pretty please, Sun.

On a related note, Robert says this regarding XAML:

[...] you will see some business build two sites: one in HTML and one in XAML. Why? Because they'll be able to offer their customers experiences that are impossible to deliver in HTML.

Come on, Robert, these days, when everyone's resources are stretched to the limit, when CIOs want to squeeze every possible drop of code from their people, when everyone works 60-hour weeks as a matter of common practice, are you seriously saying that companies will have two teams to develop a single website? Is this Microsoft's selling point? "Here, just retrain all of your people, and double the size and expense of your development team, and you'll be fine."

Of course not. Most companies will have one team, not two. Hence, logically, either people will use it or won't, without a lot of middle ground in between. That leaves two possibilities: 1) XAML will be niche and never really used a lot (think ActiveX, or, hey, even Java Applets!) or 2) XAML will kill HTML.

Which one do you think Microsoft is betting on?

This is a pretty cool successor to the Dean Meetups as a social way to be politically active: you can sign up to go to a swing state and recruit Democrat voters.

Swing State Summer Break is a 100% volunteer-operated program for progressives of all ages and their allies, who volunteer to do grassroots, electoral work during the months leading up to the election.

We make it ultra-convenient, easy, and fun to get involved in the nationwide effort to defeat Bush this November. Just tell us which states you're interested in, and when you have time to do it, and we'll take care of the rest.
