First, I just have to know; did it hurt?I think it would be an awesome idea. You need to go for it!
[font="Verdana"]It sure did. Today I haz the stupid (head cold with a dose of oinking just to alarm everyone) to make up for it.
Thanks everyone. I will have a bit of a planning session over the weekend and come up with a series of design and architecture topics for articles.
I think one theme I have seen over and over again in my career is "what was this idiot on when designing this? Maybe there's just not a good introductory course available on practical, real world database design? So let's see what I can do. I have read some good books, but it's harder to get into a book than it is something just in the article length.
As for data architecture, it still seems to be justifying its existence, which is silly. Just like everything else, you need a big picture of how everything fits together.
Anyway, now I have a project! :w00t:

Now for something totally the same...
How many people, besides myself, here on The Thread saw the original theatrical release of Star Wars when it was first released?
April 29, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Yes. I saw it 5 times during the next two weeks and saw some new detail I had missed on the times before. Bought the soundtrack as soon as I could find it. I'll bet the opening overture is the most recognizable music on the planet.

As much as I like Star Wars, I sincerely hope that Beethoven's Ninth or Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" is still more popular. But then again, I'm Austrian, so I'm probably biased.

Me!
I wasn't that blown away, but then I was always into SF and not fantasy.
