Sometimes finding hosting for your well-crafted pieces of code can be more
work than the coding itself. Locating a service that does it free of charge
is a real challenge; however, www.mycgiserver.com is a service that meets
both criteria. The site started life as a CGI server that could run user's
Perl scripts, PHP, and Java servlets, but in November 2000 they made the

A few months ago I wrote an editorial on the touchy subject of proper testing

information from Parasoft and how JTest linked with unit testing; this opened
my eyes!). No one disagreed with me, but somehow I can't see unit-testing
libraries being included with the next update of the software development
kit.

You may be aware of a radio program in the UK called "Desert Island Discs."
Basically, well-known people choose which records they would want if they
were stuck on a desert island (I've yet to hear anyone say they're taking a
CD player). Something of a similar nature is happening to me at the moment,
as I'm working from home (but far from stranded).
Since I didn't have any of my normal de... (more)
