Xplanner Running
In an effort to get off track
Well, I’ve been attempting the last week or two to get off track again from my goal of working on a wireframe tool. I’ve looked at numerous open source projects, all J2EE related, but none specifically for wireframes. I now find myself installing XPlanner which I wanted to a long time ago after seeing it mentioned in some Agile methodology book I was reading on O’Reilly’s Safari. Anyway XPlanner looks pretty cool, but I’ll probably try to adapt it to Scrum and make use of it as I build the wireframe. More on it as I take a look at it. I have to nod off to bed soon.
On a completely unrelated note, I must investigate the Lego craze behind Bionicle’s I just got a bunch of them for one of my daughters friend’s birthday party and the intiguing thing is I can’t figure out how they are much more interesting then regular legos. Is there a game angle or something I just don’t know about. Must quiz the 6 year old tomorrow on this fascination.
