Cocoa Mozilla

The Mac OS X Cocoa UI version of Mozilla now has a download available. Chimera

This has some interesting potential, the UI is minimalistic right now, but it's cool to see it running. Definitely something to keep an eye on.

Cringely on OS X

Cringely: OS X on Intel [Slashdot]

This is kind of a tired debate, sure Apple could do this. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if it already works in the lab, but running on commodity PC hardware is a very bad idea. Mac OS X is a strong selling factor for Apple hardware. I should know, I bought two Macs exclusively to run Mac OS X.

Sam Ruby writes "I hope he reads this and this, as having developers code SOAPAction and endpoint information directly into their logic seems so twentieth century." [Sam Ruby's Radio Weblog]

Yes Sam, I'm planning to do WSDL, just need to finish the basic SOAP mechanics first.
