This is progress?

Saturday | September 11, 2004 | 8:59 pm  

Just saw an article on Mono over at Sitepoint, and I stopped reading after the requisite. Hello World sample to write this entry (I’ll finish it later…).

Let’s compare, shall we…

Mono: public class HelloWorld { static void Main() { System.Console.WriteLine(”Hello World!”); } }

Java: class HelloWorldApp { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(”Hello World!”); } }

What’s all the buzz about? Where’s the beef improvement?

I can have quasi-open-source syntactic cruftyness from Sun, or open-source cruftyness from Mono, (but doesn’t it feel weird to write in a language built by someone decidely un-open source).

Isn’t it time we move on?

Poynter has released their Web-focused Eyetracker study.

Found it at the end of my lunch break (hat tip), hope to have thoughts and reactions soon.

In the meantime, check out the overview.

Update: Hypergene has an interview with Steve Outing on the study
