Cartoon Code makes a debut

An idea that I've been playing with for some time finally managed to get out of my head and onto the web in this blog posting on Head First labs. Enjoy!

Congratulations to Richie Miles!

Just wanted to post a quick congratulations to my brother, Richie Miles, for bagging a great new role with MTV UK and Ireland.

This job is well deserved payback as Rich has been paying his dues as a runner and working hard as a writer for while now. Nice one Rich!

Head First Software Development Interview live on JavaLobby

A few weeks back both Dan and I were interviewed by Meera from JavaLobby.

 I've spent some really enjoyable hours in the past with Meera and the folks at JavaLobby on book reviews and this was a fun chance to talk about our own book and some of the work behind producing a Head First title.

More in my series of Head First blog posts

I've now finished my initial set of postings to the Head First blogs:

While this is the end of the beginning, it's not the end of the end so I'll be posting more in the future, both here and on the Head First blogs.

First post on the Head First Blogs

I've been lucky enough to be asked to blog a few of my thoughts on the Head First labs blogs, and here is the first post in a week-long series that I'm putting together.

To get the ball rolling I thought I'd talk about what Head First Software Development doesn't do, which is get bogged down in particular process terminology and baggage. This was a conscious decision, and we hope it makes the book a better, more useful, more relevant and less academic guide for the practicing software developer.

Enjoy!
