It’s always fun when someone you know starts a new weblog. Stuart Kent, formerly at the University of Kent (no relation), now at Microsoft, has started a weblog regarding his work on tools infrastructure.
Reading Microsoft weblogs regarding software design and development practices is a very educational experience. I must admit, I don’t read many of them, but I would imagine that there is a lot of ephemeral knowledge to be gained by tracking a handful of key weblogs. I suspect Stuart’s weblog will be more on the design side rather than implementation, focusing on larger issues regarding DSLs and how to express those ideas in tools. We’ll see.
