Rebranding

January 28th, 2011

Rebranding is the creation of a new name, term, symbol, design or a combination of them for an established brand with the intention of developing a differentiated (new) position in the mind of stakeholders and competitors. (© Wikipedia)

Previously I wanted to name this post ‘It’s the end of the blog as we know it‘. It is because I thought to end up personal blogging and dedicate my time to collective blog CodeCrime.com. However the decision was not made (but Code Crime will live too), and personal blogging is now the thing I want to spend my time for.

As you all can see, there were no posts at all in 2010. The same thing is in my CV - I haven’t update it for a long time. So I decided to make some nearby updates and after that start blogging here like it is a new blog.

So here is the list of things I am planning to perform in near month:

  • change skin of blog to one that supports flexible width (also update WordPress to 3.0);
  • remove useless posts like Apple Mac Tini from blog;
  • correct highlighting of all single-line code examples;
  • remove Now Reading widget;
  • update comment system to probably some which does not require captcha;
  • move blog to a new domain kolesnick.com (blog.T-L-K.com is temporary one);
  • update design and content of my main portal www.T-L-K.com;
  • update CV (my apologies to all headhunters who were forced to read this outdated stuff for two years);
  • reveal information about something we (not only me) are working on this year.

So, if in the near month you will notice that design of this blog is absent, site is down or CSS is broken, please take a deep breath and wait - I’m cleaning up :)

New Series of Posts Coming

April 2nd, 2009

My trial period at the new work is going to be finished, and it seems like I’ll have enough time for new articles. During period on innactivity I found that somebody really reads my stuff (not my friends only). At least Jens Krause wrote in his blog that he’d found my article about RSS parsing helpful.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I no longer work with iPhones and Objective-C development. Currently I returned back to use .NET technologies, but now in context of web development. So my new topics will cover some of corresponding issues, and hope they’ll be interesting :)

Top 25 Programming Errors

January 18th, 2009

Have just reached a list of top 25 most dangerous programming errors that was released by cyber security experts a week ago. An important one, I think :) And with this list are provided resources and solutions to be used to eliminate these errors if they’re present. Also seems like this list is to be used for code certifications and for software testing tools. But first of all it should be used by us, developers :)

Here is the list: http://www.sans.org/top25errors

I hope, in 2020 all these errors will be studied only at programming history lessons :)

Hello! :)

December 22nd, 2008

Hi, everybody!

I decided to start my own blog :) The reason why is because on my latest project I was need to search answers to my questions over the internet, and many answers were found in blogs. So, I thought, it is a goog idea to share my own knowledge and experience with whole world IT community.

So let’s start and I hope somebody finds my posts helpful :)
