Long, long ago when I was in high school during the early 1980's, personal computers were just coming into existence. Back then, I had taken on Basic programming as a high school student. In those days, the PC of choice was the Radio Shack TRS-80 --- this was just a couple of years before the introduction of the first Apple computer. In those dark days before the Internet and before Microsoft, the only software choices we had were retail programs that could cost hundreds of dollars, or cheap ...

GUI, or Graphic User Interface is the term tossed about by technology geeks to define the only thing that matters to the rest of us. How we interact and deal with our software is entirely determined by programmers based upon instructions they receive from whomever hired them to do their jobs. Their job is to make software use easy, obvious - even invisible. I don't want to know how computers work. Don't care in the least! I only want them to work. I don't want to become a geek in order to visit ...

Many software companies with which I've worked didn't have any type of process in place for tracking and managing their software. Usually two or three lead developers controlled the software. Everyone else had to work behind them to update or integrate their individual components. As the projects grew, developers became confused, management became frustrated, and writers quit because it was hard to keep up with so many simultaneous changes. --- What is Software Configuration Management? --- The ...

There's nothing automatic about corporate growth, particularly in the information technology industry; "build it and they will come" is a myth. In the real world there is either a structured, process-driven growth cycle, or stagnation ' and stagnation IS automatic. Inherent to growth cycles are barriers, real-world business challenges that put some software companies out of business and spur others on to break through those barriers to higher levels of success. Overcoming those barriers is the ...

When I released my first software product, most people thought that I was a programmer and that I wrote it myself. But that's just not true. You can develop hot-selling software without doing any programming at all. I am technically a programmer. A bad programmer. I am capable of writing bad (and sometimes effective) code. But I don't write the software that I sell. That would be a terrible idea. It would take me infinitely longer to do it myself, and it wouldn't be as good. Instead, I hire ...

b>What is Really Free? It's funny. We have been programmed into believing that because something is free, that there is some kind of catch, or that it is not as good as a paid version, or that it is riddled with spyware and scumware. This may be true for a lot of stuff on the Internet, but I feel that it is not the case when it comes to this complete suite of office software from http://www.openoffice.org. The general belief about non free software is that it is better than free software. Well, ...

td>Create your own website using budget software. By Ramesh Kandy The question asked by everyone who wants to produce a website whether it is for his or her own personal page or for a new business must be " how much is it going to cost? ". The general view is that a web design package is expensive and for many years that view was indeed correct. This cost for a person without aspirations of large site ownership and without the technical knowledge of HTML (the programming language used in web ...
