Try-out posting …

Posted by Harald van Breederode on December 30, 2008

This is my first attempt to post something readable and nicely formatted. Hopefully the SQL*Plus output below looks good. Due to my blindness I am unable to use the WordPress builtin editor effectivly. So I am writing this using the Unix Vi editor in plain ASCII with HTML tags.


$ sqlplus / as sysdba

  1. Harald,

    Site is very well readable. Both the normal text, as well as the sql output are very clear.

    I can’t wait for more articles.

    Regards,

    Rob den Braber

    Now, its almost perfect, although not made by someone who sits on the last row in the class….

    The text goes a bit off the right margin but its still readable because it falls over the grey background on the page. The font is good: truetype font and good sized.

    I suggest you try to post something with a linesize of 200 or more to see what happens with the line breaks.

    Cheers,
    Simone

    Hi Harald:
    You are a great inspiration to us all!!
    I wish I can interview you for the ‘Meet the Experts’ feature on my blog.
    I e-mail you the questions and you reply by e-mail.
    You get a OCP Blog t-shirt as a small token of thanks from me.
    Cheers,
    Mohan, a.k.a. “OCP Advisor”

  4. Harald,
    I truly believe that world is so small. Less than a year back, I was talking to a guy who came from Netherlands and talked about attending a class of yours of RAC over there. When he told me about you, I was both impressed and inspired and see, today I got a chance to write over your blog.
    Your blog will be added now in my blog list and will be a must read for me.
    Oh yes, blog is perfect, both in viewing and reading.
    Regards
    Aman….

    Hi, Harald

    Greetings from Bulgaria. I’m so happy to see you blogging. I know you have tons of interesting information to share with the Oracle comunity (and not only Oracle).

    And yes, from practical point of view the blog is very well formated :)

    Now I see you are moderating the comments manually. I suggest you to use “Spam Karma” for cleansing the comment-data. It keeps me spam-free for quite long time (I made some of the rules more restrictive than the default values).

    I also use “Simple Trackback Validation” plugin to guard my blog from fake trackbacks. With these 2 plugins I have no spam comments for 2 years
