mntnoe.com retouched – and now with key bindings…

Mads Navntoft Noe — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 01:28:54 +0000

As you can see I have polished my blog a little, and added a very important feature: A blog focusing this much on key bindings must naturally have keybindings. Using this plugin, you can now zap back and forth between posts by pressing Shift-Left and Shift-Right – useful huh?

By the way, see Vito Chin’s article about Keyboard Enabling Web Applications.

My just-as-tool-minded friend has created a blog at esbena.blogspot.com, which you might be interested in. He has some nice setup for Emacs and Eclipse, and is the creator of screencast-mode. Oh, and getting a new rival blog made me put myself together and update my blog

Practices of an Agile Developer: Read it!

Just read a great book about agile development. Available as paperback and PDF. Very structured. Has a nice “Keeping your balance” section in every chapter, so you can actually use the things discussed in the book in real life…

Many of the things I already knew, but reading the book has made me much more aware of them.

To be recommended for both experienced and less experienced developers…

Introduction

Mads Navntoft Noe — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 22:29:48 +0000

Hey there, and welcome to my blog. I am a (soon) 21 year old student of Computer Science at the University of Aarhus.

Here I hope to share thoughts, stories from my life, and of course tips regarding Open Source software, which I have been using since 2002.

To begin with, I will post some tips on how to get most out of your user interface, like window managers, terminal emulators, choice of applications etc.

Happy reading…
