I am a .NET developer, did not know about Jackson, I just saw it and oh man! now I understand you. way way simpler.
jgemedina··on Standard Java API for JSON
I hate when this sort of stuff happens in the Java world, gives me the feeling of almost "manually" parsing it, the impl could be better, if take as an example other impl as Json.net for .NET

I guess the main reason is to have the status page separate so it can truly monitor the twitter service.

wasn't aware there was a site just for that, oh the web! thanks.
jgemedina··on Why you shouldn’t write off Google+ just yet
G+ and Facebook are different things even though people do compare them.

I get different stuff in my g+ stream compared to facebook, they're targeting g+ for something more than just a social network, it is an integrator, yet another cool feature of the whole google ux.

jgemedina··on PHP sucks? Go and tell to Facebook, wordpress, drupal, magento, etc...
totally second aiiane,

I personally think PHP is indeed a mess as a tool, it is sort of a bunch of unorganized stuff that works. I've used it myself though, but found out other stuff like rails for example are simpler and more powerful.

so when it comes to productivity and related stuff, you might question yourself about what tools to choose, which are better and which ones suck.
