Don Box and the end of the browser
I tend to agree with Don Box in that the browser is dead. I do most of my web navigation using NewzCrawler. But if Don thinks the browser is dead is because he does not need to read his own weblog!. I hate to have to open a new IE window to read Don's posts ;).

Data in distributed systems
Putting code and data into a single thing is a bad idea for distributed systems. Behavior is bound to the role that data plays in a functional scope.

Exposing your business logic layer II
I got some comments to my previous post. I never know if I should answer them in the comments section or in the weblog itself, as I never know if someone reads the comments, so I'll post this here.

Steve Ballmer presentation transcript
A year and half ago I read a transcript of a presentation Steve Ballmer did in a 'Can Win' event and I was really impressed with it. I was so impressed that I had the need to send him an email saying I liked it, and he answered it with a 'Thx' ;).

Exposing your business logic layer
One of the main reasons for designing software in several layers is to reduce the impact that the changes in one layer have in the upper layers. For example, you keep all your SQL code in a Data Access Layer, and when your schema changes, you just need to change that layer and not the upper ones.
