Mixing work and play
If you are a soccer fan, then here are 2 ways that you can mix your work and play viz. keep youself updated with the latest World cup scores and news while pretending to work:
- Google has this wonderful plugin, which I've just discovered last night, that allows you to keep track of scores, news and blogs of your favourite team. You can get it here.
- I've written a Netbeans plugin that which pulls RSS feed from the official world cup website. You can get the NBM and source here.

Second try - NetBeans module for StarOffice/OpenOffice
Second try!
My first ever source release of a NetBeans module had some bugs in it. Althought I've tested my SO4NB (that's StarOffice for NetBeans, pronounce as SNOB), I did *ALL* my test on a Solaris/Linux machine. Silly me. Ofcourse there was this other minority OS call Windows. Anyway Geertjan was good enough to volunteered his machine. He found some major problems. He also gave me a some feedbacks which I have incooporated into the module. Robert Thornton also help with some bug fixes. Thanks guys.Here is the second release of the source code and NBM for SO4NB. I welcome your bug reports (and fixes) and feedback.
