Have ‘puter, WhilBlog
Whil’s blogging, albeit without tools yet. Whil Hentzen, famed
publisher of the Hentzenwerke Publishing Group, author, FoxTalk journal
editor, speaker, Microsoft “Most Valuable Professional,” first “FoxPro
Lifetime Acheivement Award” winner, and host of the Great Lakes Great Database Workshop, has started a blog on the rightmost column of the homepage of Hentzenwerke Publishing.
A web log in the true definition of the term, with HTML markup in his
web site tool of choice, and no ability for subscriptions, permalinks
or comments. Yet. Still, a good first step. Perhaps he’ll attend my
session on “Simple Internet Subscriptions with VFP and XML” for some pointers on developing his own RSS feed.
A disclaimer for the few of you who might not know: Hentzenwerke has
published my last several books, and I’ve worked with them as author,
tech editor and PDF-tweaker.

MSDN Magazine does Blogging
MSDN Magazine arrived today, with a cover story of “Blogging:
Design Your Own Weblog Application from Scratch Using ASP.NET, JavaScript, and OLE DB” by
Marco Bellinaso. Now, why would you want to design
your own. It’s in “preview” form on the web now, but it looks like they
should be posting the entire article here.

Last day of the Hopkinton State Fair
Fifty-two and rainy this morning when I walked the dogs, with a drippy
little drizzle. It won’t be a good day for vendors today, but perhaps
for bargain hunters. I very much want to see the fair succeed, as a
social event as much as a financial one.
Step-daughter Belynda was up yesterday with friends old and young and
they all had fun on what turned out to be a sunny and warm day.
Hope your Labor Day is a pleasant one, too.
