It turned out that registering this blog is essential to get visitors. While browsing the net for free rss submission services (overviews are provided by RSStop55 or www.toprankblog.com ). I also stumbled over RssHugger.com . It sounds like a fair deal, they are listing this blog - and I write a few lines regarding their service. RssHugger.com provides two ways to get listed. Paying a small amount of money or getting listed for free - if you write a small review like this. Because I don't know what I'll receive for my money I prefer option 2 in this case. ;-). So - let's see what happens.

Just for fun a colleague of mine implemented a generic widget for simple and minimalistic web-based surveys. Chck out www.widgetbox.com for the Online Survey Widget made by TEC-IT . At the moment this widget just sends GET requests to a pre-specified URL (the URL is adjustable). The results of the survey are thus only visible in the web-logs of the respective web-server.

The main purpose of such a software wedge (also named keyboard wedge ) is to transform data read from an external device (connected via RS232, RS485, serial, COM, USB, Bluetooth or TCP/IP) into keyboard strokes. These keyboard strokes are then be forwarded to arbitrary applications. Using such middleware it is possible to automate data acquisition tasks - even with software applications which are not able to communicate with devices directly (e.g. like using a serial barcode scanner with Microsoft Excel). The existing version of TWedge fulfills its main purpose perfectly. Serial data is captured and forwarded to applications. But customers often require powerful possibilities for adjusting and modifying data prior it is forwarded to a target application. The solution to this problem? Scripting! The new version of TWedge supports J...
