Welcome to September, folks! As you’ve probably noticed, although Javamancy mini has been humming along with shorter items, Javamancy itself has been fairly quiet last month. Not to say things didn’t happen– and there were things that happened– but there were some items of interest that unfortunately do not really fit the Javamancy model of [...]

The Setup Back on July 17, 2008, I had an inkling of an idea… why not make Javamancy more friendly to mobile devices that are able to access the site? The date is significant because I’d recently acquired the Palm [PALM] Centro, and as I was trying out the provided Web browser (Blazer, the NetFront [...]
The Setup A few days ago, I’d posted about the recent arrival of the MacBook White.
