Now it’s official - you may use AdSense for content in your Hebrew sites. Great news for israeli web site owners, although many of them already used AdSense even without formal permission…
One of our sites, StartupIsrael, has a new design. The graphic designer is the same one we used for ExpressCard-Info (through the eLance system). I think it’s pretty good!
When you work in a team, obviously you need some sort of Source/Version control. I’ve used two such tools - Microsoft SourceSafe, and Perforce. Perforce was a great tool, by the way, much better than SourceSafe.
On smaller software projects though, it’s not so straightforward to use a version control software, as it can be slow and can complicate your work. But it also has advantages even when you work alone.
I decided to take a look at a new version control software - SubVersion. It’s open source, free, and I have heard good things about it. Installation was quick and easy. I also installed a neat client called TortoiseSVN, which integrates into your windows explorer. There’s also a good Plugin for eclipse (which I use for PHP and Java development). SVN uses the Apache server, so if you already have it working, it’s easy to install.
So after only a few hours I had my latest PHP project working with SVN. I have yet to integrate it with Delphi (and I’m not sure if I can) for windows development.
