The books we ordered have just arrived: great gifts for the new year 
I will start with classic book of software engineering – The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering first which was first published in 1975 by Fred Brooks. This anniversary edition includes four new chapters and I really wonder about the evolution of software engineering and the human factor in the past 33 years. I can’t wait especially for the legendary The Mythical-Man Month and No Silver Bullet essays.
We started to work on some projects, and after getting the source code, we could not use the web projects in eclipse because they were not defined as Eclipse Dynamic Web projects. Here is a small trick to convert these general projects to Dynamic Web projects.
I upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.7 Beta 3 and i am very impressed at first sight Also with very nice plugins like Zemanta and Organize Series blogging is really a pleasure, thanks to them.
You can also upgrade your WordPress if you do not like installing your plugins every time by ftp, instead of manual install you can easily install/upgrade your plugins just like Firefox
After a very long time, i just returned to blogging and of course i have lot’s of things to tell We just moved to Amsterdam, as expats and i changed my job, and to be honest it is a busy one, i work as Software Engineer at a bank… I do not know why but as far as i know banks are really busy and unfortunately stressful compared to the software development jobs in other sectors.
I would appreciate if you can comment if i have the wrong impression but this is my third banking experience and all the issues are fatal, all the problems & solutions are so urgent and all the deadlines are so close, generally because of the legal obligations…
Amsterdam, if you have not visited yet is a nice city to live and travel… Wish me luck at this fresh start
I also have a new personal blog for sharing my experiences about Amsterdam&Netherlands, but this one is in Turkish, my native language
