Internet Marketing, Web Technologies & News – Best Web Ezy

The first beta of Jiffy-Web was released on 23/6/2008.  Good news to developers, Jiffy is an end-to-end real-world web page instrumentation and measurement suite.

What does it do?  You can use Jiffy to:

• measure individual pieces of page rendering (script load, AJAX execution, page load, etc.) on every client
• report those measurements and other metadata to a web server
• aggregate web server logs into a database
• generate reports

How does it work?

• Measurement – using the jiffy.js script to measure activities on webpages
• Configuration – Apache proxy configuration
• Log – an ingestor that posts logs to a database
• Working DDLs for Oracle XE and higher
• Reporting – for Oracle, but MySQL is coming
• Reporting user interface – using the Yahoo! User Interface Library

According to Google Code, “you can use Jiffy end-to-end by

• including Jiffy.js in your pages and instrumenting them with the appropriate mark and measure calls
• Making the configuration changes needed to your proxy
• Adding the ingestor as a cron job on your web servers, with appropriate connection strings
• Setting up the data model
• Editing the reporting configuration and deploying the reporting tools

More simply, you can combine Jiffy and the Firebug add-in to view Mark & Measure results for a single developer client.“

I have just watched an exciting video about MS’ Windows 7.

Exciting isn’t it? For the people that hates Windows Vista, the good news is that Windows 7 is scheduled to launch in late 2009.

The new feature of Windows 7 is the touch-screen capability. View it here:

Video: Multi-Touch in Windows 7

As you can see from the video, you can drag, enlarge, minimize the images with 2 fingers. Nice isn’t it.

But you do need a screen that support touch-screen.

Apart from this new feature, I do hope that it is a stable version of Windows. This is more important to me.
