Just because of the current flow in the band I found the energy to create a video of from our performance in Örebro in september. This is also my first YouTube-upload ever.

As I wrote before we are very blessed right now in the Vasa Band. It seems like we really are used by the Lord and that the music we play is filled with his presence.
And the best part of it that it feels just right and like what we always wanted and has done.
Here is a recording of a concert (beware 45 mb!) we did Sunday night with Andreas Kratz conducting.
As always; I am so proud and happy to be a part of this great band and to be a Salvation Army bandsman. I have played with some great bands – but this is the greatest feeling, if nothing else.
Thank you guys – let’s continue on this path. And thank you Andreas Kratz for making us great!

I found a site that held a gold nugget. At first I didn’t see it but at the bottom of the page there was a list with some very interesting web cast on agile things; Kanban, Agile Design, TDD, Pair programming etc.
Here is one example; a webcast that promise to “Debug Pair Programming”. It’s shows some of the problems you might run into when introducing pair programming and how to solve them.
At the lower part of the page you’ll find many other pod and webcasts. For example:

I am trying to live as I teach, and I think that I, in the near future, will talk to customers about storing stuff “in the cloud”.
To not be a complete hypocrite I have started to store more and more stuff in the cloud.
After email, contacts and calendar it’s now time for my files. DropBox is a really nice alternative. It also have the possibility to share certain folders with others, or go public altogether (here is some code for example). Finally it’ syncs to all my computers that have DropBox installed.
Nice, really nice. No more USB…

OK – I am already sold on this concept and most experienced developers probably are but here is a great (and short) introduction to Dependency Injection and Inversion of Control.
Don’t let the title scare you – it’s not that long an article.

Got a tip from Joakim Sundén about an article that introduces Kanban in a great way. Here you are.
I don’t know if I got it better this time because I already knew about Kanban but it really got to me in a practical way by reading this.
I also loved some details in the presentation – just check the “Your estimated waiting time” –boxes in this picture:
Thank you Jeff.

As readers of this blog might have noticed I have not only switched to Mac (Book Pro) but also have done so after a long while on the PC-side of things.
I am not sure that it has anything to do with this but the wonderful touch pad on my Mac Book and I don’t click (no pun intended). I may also have to do with lacking fine motorics… but I hope not.
One of my most trusted Mac-source have supplied me with this video. Thanks Magnus.

OK – I know that a lot of stuff has been written on this. But most of these doesn’t really cut what I want. Mainly for two reasons:
Don’t bother about that. Here is how you do it easily and absolutely free.

Last week on the Kanban course we brushed on Root-Cause analysis several times. It is really a great tool for getting to the “root of all evil” if you like, or in any case the problem.
Although the base concepts are quite easy to grasp some guidance and best practices is always a good way to get you started. Mr Kniberg has done it again and serves us a great article that introduces the subject, with a humorous twist.
Thanks Henrik!

Yeah – I know that I already has written about an online PowerPoint, but this tool actually replaces the need for that and PowerPoint altogether.
I often found myself hacking away on a presentation just to find that I is sooo boring at the end. A lot of slides with a lot of bullet points on. I know that you can make it nicer and cooler in PowerPoint but I don’t know how.
Here is the tool that helps with that – Prezi. It’s more like making presentable mind maps but it works really great. Even I can make things that looks … well, not bad any way.
It could also be one of the coolest GUI’s I ever worked with.
Here is my first try, summing up some stuff that David Andersson wrote on the flip chart during the Read More
