Jan 25: Bits and Pieces

Having finally finished work for the day, I have some bits and pieces before I get back to the Hotsos tests.

Mike Scott
I mentioned that Mike Scott has been been really helpful with preparing test environments and offering intelligent argument. Mike's a Unix System Administrator and has some really interesting articles on his web site that he produced for Sys Admin magazine. He's also decided to start a blog and I said I'd give it a mention here. To be honest, I'm just jealous of his template ;-)

I'm always on the look-out for good Unix and hardware information, so feel free to suggest any good sites you know of.

Technical Links
To help people navigate the blog, I've added links in the side-bar to some previous technical postings (leaving out the moaning, soft animals and opinionated non-Oracle rubbish). What a disappointing number of technical blogs! Must try harder ...

Howard's Wiki
(That sounds quite rude!) After all of the recent discussion about OraQA, Howard Rogers has decided to host an Oracle Wiki as an experiment. The standard of articles so far is tremendous and I can only hope it continues in that vein.

Hottest Blog of the Week
I've really enjoyed Eddie's 'pronunciation blog' and there are two of them ;-) That subject used to really pre-occupy me, because I was self-taught at home and so I made a monumental fool of myself when I first started work in offices and mis-pronounced everything! Teaching people soon fixed that, though - my way or ridicule! (I promise that's a joke)

I predict a riot ...
Ah, that Andy C .... Uncontroversial, as always! Let's hope Niall doesn't see it! (He's the only Liverpool supporter I know of in the community, but I can't see him putting up much of an argument ...). To be honest, Andy's always got something funny and interesting to say .... (That's just a tired, end-of-day pick - it's all good stuff)

Links in Comments

It's a minor source of frustration to me that you can't just paste a Hypertext link into the comments form here but, should you ever want to include a link, all you need to do is use the BBCode format, as mentioned below the comment form.

Here is a link to the relevant part of the document that explains how.

For the avoidance of any doubt, all views expressed here are my own and not those of past or current employers, clients, friends, Oracle Corporation, my Mum or, indeed, Flatcat. If you want to sue someone, I suggest you pick on Tigger, but I hope you have a good lawyer. Frankly, I doubt any of the former agree with my views or would want to be associated with them in any way.
