“Ian Robinson and Jim Webber on Web-based Integration”
My Web-book co-authors gave an interview to Stefan Tilkov for InfoQ. Fun! How can you not like that happy face of my best friend Jim? 🙂 (the one on the left) Ahhhh! I miss working with my pal. Every time I stay at his place and we talk geek, I remember the fun times of…

Glastonbury 2009 – It was another great one
I am back in London now. Glastonbury was another amazing experience. I arrived in London on Thursday evening with a plan on how to reach the festival fields but without having booked anything.
