ootips 

Object Orientation Tips is a collection of the most useful and interesting posts I found in OO mailing lists, newsgroups and web forums.


chiq_chaq 

Chiq_chaq - wiki for regular people is a friendly free-site software, with emphasis on usability and localization. You can explore a public chiq_chaq installation, or download chiq_chaq.
Roy Sharon wrote an interesting account of its development history (in Hebrew).


patterns 

Scrum: A Pattern Language For Hyperproductive Software Development is a an attempt to present this agile process as a collection of patterns. It was published in Pattern Languages of Program Design 4.
You may also be interested in a presentation I made about other Organizational Patterns.


papers The Skin Pattern and The Phrasebook Pattern are very useful programming patterns. Rani Pinchuk and I documented them and the papers were published in the PLoP 2000 proceedings.
Rani released his Perl implementation of a Skin Class and a Phrasebook Class. I used simpler (and less powerful) implementations of these patterns in chiq_chaq.

smart pointers  Smart Pointers - What, Why, Which? is a gentle introduction to a complex subject.

Coding  Free tools and code for C++ programmers - I wrote what I needed, and I hope you will find these useful too.

Splity  Splity is a Perl script that splits a long web page to several interconnected pages. It is useful for maintaining both a print version and a browsable version of a site. I use it for the Hebrew Homeschooling FAQ.

Hebrew Sites  Some Hebrew sites hosted here:
  • Horut - my personal (some say extreme) opinions about parenting.
  • Artzenu - my father's site about Israel, it's borders, history and geography.
  • Oded - My brother's thoughts, articles about secular freedom, and a collection of fun mathematical puzzles.
