A little earlier today I found myself explaining Aggregate Roots and Anemic Domain Models to a couple of developers hre, and I wished I had my copy of Domain Driven Design to hand to show them what I was explaining ... then I remembered that InfoQ published an *excellent* online book called "Domain Driven Design Quickly" - free to download, or you can buy the printed version. This book is a perfect introduction to DDD, ...

The recent OTN Forums update has been heavily blogged/Twittered/posted about already, so I’m not even going to touch that one. However, one thing that a few people have focused on (pardon the pun) is that the update has changed the way that viewed threads are displayed in a very light grey colour, making them a bit hard to read, as shown in this screenshot. One option is obviously to petition the folks at OTN to ...

I have been tasked with presenting on the topic of converting the character set for our Banner system databases. We have been through the exercise several times, which has been quite an eye-opening experience in itself (The DataPump Index work-around, dbms_pclxutil.build_part_index, creating tablespaces). Essentially, the vendor has decided in all its god-like wisdom to force all customers to start using a multibyte Unicode character set that will support international characters (AL32UTF8) when they upgrade to ...

It’s a box that lets you ask different questions and get answers. It’s sort of like search. But far more powerful. It’s not for non-passionate Internet users. They won’t get it.

I used to use mind maps while I was still at school in the early 90’s, yeah last century. I found them useful then, but I seem to have really fallen out of the habit of using them. I do think they can be useful in gaining an overall picture of a subject or topic. I [...]

Lesley reminds us of Hertzberg's work on hygiene. It's not just theory, it's a vitally important marketing concept. It's easy to believe that joy lives on a simple curve. If you give me more of what I want, you give me more joy. If one baseball game is good, season tickets are better. If $300 an hour for consulting is good, $400 is better. Improved = more. It turns out, though, that there isn't just ...

This is my personal blog. I don’t run my draft posts by Google’s PR or legal team, other than maybe 2-3 times when I thought a post might have legal implications. But I have learned a few hard-won lessons. So, when someone recently asked me for tips about talking to the public, I couldn’t resist. Whether you blog for the company officially or unofficially, here are my top three rules of thumb: Don’t make hard ...

Deeter said:
Matt's advice may seem simple but it isn't, primarily because it goes against the grain of "blogging". A blogger quickly learns that he/she has to be REAL. This means saying more than the reader expects, opening the golden doors of your inner sanctum (office) and sharing things as if they were a trusted friend. But, as Matt said, that is dangerous if your rep is linked to a corporation. In my opinion, that is one of the reasons why most "company blogs" fall flat and become, as Doug Karr once put it... "clogs".

Very good advice from Matt. When I was actively blogging while at Microsoft this captures my thinking at the time.

The other day, our data warehouse database was effectively down. The database was up and running; but all connection attempts to the database would just hang. Since connections just failed, the DBA couldn’t even get in to see if the sessions connected were running normally or not. The ETL team reported that the processing slowed down to a crawl. The DBA, as instructed, went on to check the wait events; but since she couldn’t even ...

"I never click on ads." It's almost a badge of honor to say that. The subtext is, "I'm too smart/busy to waste my time doing that," or perhaps, "I don't want someone to sell my attention." But the real effect is that you're starving great content. I can say this because there are no ads here but, If you like what you're reading, click an ad to say thanks. Pretty simple, but not an accepted ...

exactaBob said:

-
Riaz said:
not convinced by this - both that it will happen and that it happening is a good thing. For it to be good, people would have to click through and pay attention to the website they arrive at so that conversions increase. Otherwise, marketers will still pay the same amount to the publisher for the higher click throughs.
-
Lorraine said:
Interesting concept, but is it fair to the advertiser if I have no interest in your product but click anyway to "tip" a good writer?
-
Adam said:
Wrong, wrong, WRONG. If you click on an ad with no real interest in the thing being sold, you devalue ad clicks on the site you were "thanking" with an ad click. That's much more harmful to the site than adopting a policy of never clicking on ads. Of course, I advocate a middle ground :) Click on stuff that catches your attention, ad or not.
