Software Development Sites: Javelin Software
Enterprise Java APIs: JGenerator source code generator for database business objects and EJBs; JLogger (JDK 1.4 logger); JPool (database connection pool); Swinglets component-based API for generating
HTML, WML and XML pages (written years before "JavaServerFaces" was a twinkle in the JavaSoft "expert committee's" eye...)
The heart of the Java community. Latest news and product announcements, and discussions with top Java developers.
Software Market Solution
Excellent resource for software marketers - useful for anyone who needs to start, refine, or improve their software marketing.
Mountain Goat Software
Good source of articles and resources for agile software development. Run by Mike Cohn (author of "User Stories Applied"). Also see his other site, userstories.com.
Agile Modeling
Modeling and documentation practices that can be applied to a software development project in an effective and lightweight manner.
Larkware
Nicely priced software (including assistants for Fog Creek CityDesk). And some interesting programming articles.
Methods and Tools
Free e-Newsletter for software development professionals.
developer.*
The magazine by, for, and about software developers.
Bugzero
A web-based bug tracking and help desk customer support system.
eBusiness Gateway
IT project advisers and project manager mentors based in Scotland.
Joel on Software
Joel Spolsky's website - a really good read, and informative. His book, "User Interface Design for Programmers", is highly recommended (and it's concise enough to read in an afternoon). If you're involved in creating user interfaces, this book will definitely improve your work.
Meryl.net
A good portfolio of articles about software development and things - well worth a read.
Programmers Guild
Organisation for professional programmers.
Steve Magruder's Website
Lots of software development links and things.
4-Developers
Interesting articles about software development.
Cool Sites That are Well Worth a Visit: The Emperor's Washing Line
Anti-jargon, unfashionable, Luddite, heretical, and may cause offence if taken too seriously... insightful and well written IT articles that probe the grubbier aspects of the Emperor's underpants.
The Weasel Report
Kind of defies description (in a good way), but definitely well worth a look. Stories of weasels from those who have "been weaseled". Sounds painful.
Broad Side of the Barn
Sort of an Internet Chill-Out Zone. A variety of stories on "lifestyle" issues such as snowboarding and chasing chickens.
Zzzptm
Read Dean's great and varied musings on many subjects (including some management stuff). Be sure to check out the Great Cthulhu - HP Lovecraft++...
The Wired Press
Wired-up satire. Very funny site. Go check it out. G'won.
Moonrock Radio
UK-based community for on-line investors. Their message forum is refreshingly intelligent.
The Register
UK-based tech news source. Lively, witty and up-to-date.
Nexus Magazine
Behind the news; health; Big Brother; UFOs; Unexplained; Future Science.
Lots of interesting articles about these subjects. Pay particular attention
to the article about artificial sweeteners.
David Icke
Whatever you have heard, read, or personally believe about him, his
articles deserve to be read. It's the easiest way to make up your own mind after all, instead of just hearing other peoples' conclusions...
Here's a useful introduction.
Libertarianism
"Everyone should be free to do as they choose, so long as they don't infringe upon the equal freedom of others."
Libertarianism is a nice idea; makes you realise how inherently corrupt
our existing political system is (this is coming from the land that
doesn't even have its own written Constitution).
Gyroscopic Inertial Thruster:JetLESS drive for circular wing (UFO), & related crafts
Every home should have one.
Dino's Home Page
An extensive and well selected set of links to cool sites around the
web: "alternative" music, software development, conspiracies,
alien abduction, etc.
