Was amazing to discover Google+ Circles. Despite some people claiming that Google+ force users to use their real names instead of a pseudonim, I think Google contacts is sound and Circles a beatiful idea. And if dealing with real identities, still better. Is such a good idea that integrating BrightSide Contacts with Google Apps and Social Groups with Circles is taking a more defined picture.

Apart of the single sign-on feature, Google is giving a common place for contacts, synchronized with Android devices. With Circles you have multiple FB in a single account.

The first thing I was wondering about when remodeling this web site was its final purpose. Yes, I want to distribute free software and open source software, which might not be the same. And yes, I want this software to be as good as posible. Who not? The question is how to legally achieve this.

Now you may wonder why not simply make available software downloads and accept contributions? Well, I suspect nobody will be interested improving source code owned by a single developer. What if I change my mind nowadays?

The Web is moving... we move along.

With the arrival of the ready-to-use, easy-to-implement AJAX frameworks web sites reworked their concept. From being simple web pages turned into real applications. No matter what the problem is.

We found ourselves developing a financials module that will only run within a browser. No installation required. No executables... God! No executables!

Contact databases are easily made unmanageable. They tend to grow in an unordered manner and carry those defects inherent to non categorized huge databases. Users might be able to see the whole database or may end up creating contact duplicates. As long as contacts database is attached to web users database, privacy isn't satisfied. Anyone seeing contacts sees users, maybe even permissions, roles and the like. But how to avoid it? Giving yourself each customer, provider, collaborator and so on, its permissions? Certainly not.

Here is where Social Groups comes in help. Build upon BrightSide Contacts, Social Groups define the way a contact has to be categorized, to those has to be related and which permissions is allowed. Social Groups make a clear vision of Contacts database.

I have been disconnected wink from this site quite long. It seems that time isn't working the right way with me. You know, the more I'm supposed to understand the more complicated to write about it. Well, this time I made a break and gathered myself in order to put my two cents saying something about Zkoss.

First, I would like you to notice that this goes about web application frameworks. Java Server Faces, Flex, Google Web Toolkit, Wicket and those of that kind. I have stressed most of them in my way of being productive writing web applications. Difficult, let me tell you.
