Why Jazz Programming?

Maybe some of my 7 readers (source: Google Analytics) are wondering why this new name. The reason is simple: the old name was fun and cheeky, but it didn’t really describe what I’d like this blog to be. So I chose the new name basing it on what my two main interests currently are.

Furthermore, I think there are some analogies between Jazz and Software Engineering, especially Agile Methodologies. The first that come to my mind are:

• both a jazz player and an agile programmer can do well in solo, but give thier best in a group/team.


• both a jazz player and an agile programmer look at each session as a chance for improvement.


• both a jazz player and an agile programmer strive continuosly for improvement.

If any of you has other analogies, why not leave them in a comment?

Ok, proviamoci

Dopo solo un paio di anni in cui stavo considerando di aprire un blog mi sono finalmente deciso a agire. Per cui eccoci qua: first post, etc etc.

Sarebbe utile, per non dire tradizionale, spiegare in questo primo post chi sono e di cosa parlerò qui dentro. Però io sono pigro, quindi vi toccherà arrangiarvi e andarvi a frugare gli archivi e i tags, non appena avrò scritto qualcosa per riempirli.
