Einer der vielen positiven Nebeneffekte Brandl'scher Reisetätigkeit sind die grandiosen Photos, die sich nach einigen ~~Jahren~~ ~~Monaten~~ Wochen zumeist auf floritz.at einfinden.

Jon Udell: "BEA's Alchemy relies on a server component for the same reason that Macromedia's Flex does: ~~both companies want to sell servers~~." — The perils of having ~~to sell ads~~ an editor.

Having a rich, general information editor is one of the greatest things in the world, as I will demonstrate shortly :) (hopefully this summer, knock, knock, knock).

more general than vim :) ?

vim is very specialized: the only thing it can edit is a list of lists of symbols.

my editor is based on typed links, and typed links only (for example, when something is clicked with the mouse, the sys:mouse node is connected to the clicked thing with a sys:click link. this can then for example react by setting its sys:color property to sys:color/red). every graphic object is a molecule of nodes held together by typed links.

i think the next unix will be based on typed links instead of plain text. text is messy (scribble in the margins) and this messiness is needed. information wants to be smeared.

the opendocs failed because they r too clean (and too coarse grained). typed links are messy enough to be good a medium.

typed links everywhere! sounds interesting, auf alle faelle. so i'm looking forward to this - knock knock - summer ;)
