I’ve just right now published the slides of my two last speeches on slideshare, that site is really nice, simple and wao, web 2.0!

For time boxing look here, for importance of being driven have a look here!

Back to speech! I am very happy about this, my last one was at Java Conference Last year and it’s really time to go present something.

I’ll talk about the Importance to be Driven at the European School of Agile Praticse, in Varese.

I have a lot of draft posts, I think is time to post some of those.

- Sa cosa stavo pensando? Io stavo pensando una cosa molto triste, cioé che io, anche in una società più decente di questa, mi troverò sempre con una minoranza di persone. Ma non nel senso di quei film dove c’è un uomo e una donna che si odiano, si sbranano su un’isola deserta perché il regista non crede nelle persone. Io credo nelle persone, però non credo nella maggioranza delle persone. Mi sa che mi troverò sempre a mio agio e d’accordo con una minoranza…e quindi…

- Do you know what I am thinking about? I’m thinking about a very sad thing, that is that me, even in a better society that this, I’ll always see myself in minority of people. Not in the sense of that kind of films where there are one man and one woman hating each others, they fights against each others in a desert island because the director doesn’t trust in people. I believe in people, but I don’t believe in the majority of people. I think that I’ll find myself at ease on with a minority… and so…

My tentative translation, quoting Nanni Moretti in Caro Diario (Dear Diary)

And so… I’ll continue to develop with test driven, test first, agile practices, scrum perhaps even behavior driven and domain driven and why not interface driven? The importance is to be driven!

But more than this fancy things I’ll always search for happiness, fun & learning at work.

I’ve just sow this interesting presentation by Dave Astels on BDD.

Interesting the quotation on the last slide:

“I always thought Smalltalk would beat Java, I just didn’t know it would be called ‘Ruby’ when it did.” — Kent Beck

A good start for BDD can be rSpec, take a look to this tutorial.

There’s also a good article by Dan, here: http://dannorth.net/introducing-bdd/

I think that I’ll try to join the prj asap

Another Article here: http://abc.truemesh.com/archives/000467.html from the blog of Chris Matts.

I was spiking a bit with Jbehave today and I really like it, thanks also to Elizabeth Keogh for explaining me how the stuff works!

She’s really a cool dev!
