I'm Back

Sorry folks. Things have gotten a little busy at TripConnect and I've also been busy writing a Travel Food and Restaurant Blog and a Family Traveler Blog along with all my real duties... I'm going to try to get back in the swing of things and add an entry here once a week.


Java Developer Postion Open

We still have an open position for a Java Developer so if you think you're up to snuff, look up the job description on CraigsList New York (search jobs for TripConnect) and send in your resume.


Good Read: How Google Works


One thing I recommend checking out is Baseline Magazine's article How Google Works. Assuming the facts are all accurate, it gives some insight on the guts of Google's system architecture and lower level software components. I can see why the brightest software engineers flock to Google on a whole new level. Where else do you get to reinvent hardcore algorithms like GFS and BigTable, then see it applied to solve large scale performance and scalability problems? Obviously, there's a lot of details that will never reach us outsiders, but it looks like Google has a software architecture that's synonymous with DNA; small generalized computation elements and algorithms that are building blocks to solving large scale computations with both fault tolerance and scale factored in. Very cool.
