Black Galactic Seas will continue soon...

The journey will continue. And not because my Java Teacher handed me the "Parallel Worlds" by Michio Kaku but because suddenly I was reading stuff which ran thru my mind since I was a little kid. My instructor is a rather unique guy during my SCJP course(SL-275) we talked all the time about the 11th dimension, String Theory, The fate of the universe,Worm holes, Portals, Levitation and what not.

He's going to be writing a book on his own ideas pretty soon, and hearing him I suddenly feel the need to get back to my version of the "Worlds of Worlds"(No, the title will be different of course :)), which I started way back in 97.

I will also write a bit of my own "My Poor Brain On Java" series, just to inspire myself to think like a good OO nerd.

The Framingham, Mass., company offers consulting services for companies that use virtualization software to improve the performance of corporate servers and cut costs in their data centers. GlassHouse also provides Internet-based data storage. "Software-as-a-service," or SaaS, companies and vendors of virtualization products have proved popular among investors in recent years as corporate customers seek alternatives to conventional packaged software. GlassHouse, with roots in both sectors, will test the strength of that interest, said Peter Falvey, managing director with Boston investment bank Revolution Partners. "It will be a bit of a bell weather," he says. "It's not as though it's the 15th SaaS m...
