uapconsole 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2007 I did not even realize it but, today I've upped my credits 6 points. I have had my account for the past couple of weeks but sunk below negative last week. I am still learning about the PostForHost ideology, and its an adjustment process. However, I love the concept. It keeps one involved and interested. I recall reading a review on Sun's development site (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html). It was more of a sociological piece than technical literature. The article's overall theme was that the Internet, as a commercial tool and global network, was moving towards an "Age of Participation." The so-called progression from the ubiquitous Information Age to Participation Age. The Participation Age will be driven by mass feedback and intellectual input; as opposed to the Information Age, which tend to celebrate and revolve around the inventions and innovations of individuals. I suppose some examples would be Napster or the development of the MP 3 compression technology, which are static "inventions" of individuals. A contemporary product of the so-called Participation Age is the success of youtube.com. The technology of being able to share video via the www platform is not necessarily ground breaking. Granted, the developers of the web site are apt and skillful people who utilize very strong video compression, their success belongs to the masses that contribute countless video files all around the globe. I shall not "blabber" anymore, I simply wanted to say that I really dig the concept of participation on a mass scale. Xisto is very progressive and cutting-edge to be able to try something like this. I am still on my learning trail of Apache Tomcat/JSP deployment. Now that my account is accessible, I will try to deploy some sample JSP code. I am now learning more about CPanel (Xisto's account manager). I believe I must study the area of "Apache Handlers" I guess I have to define global extensions, such as .jar / .war / .java so Apache can pass these files to the Jasper JSP engine. More to come, thank you for your participation. - Demirelli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
