New Summer Look :)
Thanassis.com started about 10 years ago and was mostly used to give out tutorials, code, and other bits and pieces to my programming students. Nowdays, the site has expanded to cover several of my interests.
I hope you enjoy your stay and you find something useful and fun.
In this site you can find:
online games : Try to beat the computer on an
Ivory Tower round. I developed Ivory Tower as a clone of the famous Acromage game. It's a fantasy D&D card game- much simpler than MAGICIf you like Sudoku you could attempt the 12 Board Sudoku
challenge or simply download and print the Printable PDF sudoku puzzles. My latest game, WebHangman, is an image fetching hangman. It uses a disctionary of 22000 english words and fetches images related to each word to help the player.
software development info : Read or download my Java training resources. My latest addition is a full seven day training course for programmers. The Java section links also to my java games and their source
code. In the development section you'll also find resources for Mobile J2ME development, Object Orientation, UML,
Frameworks, and Design Patterns.
In the past I've spent lots of time developing Computer Based Assessment (CBA) Software. You can view information about my research on CBA and diagrams and important Computer Science research links.
galleries and best links : Useful Greek sites and beautiful photos
of Greece. Resources on Music, especially Jazz guitar. My favourite photos and
resources on photoshop and filters.
personal info : CV, favourite quotes, photos from my journeys and some other interests. You can send few words using the textbox in the contact page.
my blog : with articles, links, tips, and reviews for Blogging, Education, Music, Photo/Art, SEO/PPC, Social Web, Software, Tools/Links.

Thanassis.com got a new look!. A lot of the html got cleared up through the use of CSS. I hope the new look is easier to the eye, more usable and more accessible. After checking out thousands of available templates I choose the "Relic" template from Kevin Cannon. I love its simplicity.
Please let me know how much you like the new look :)

I blogged an article about the 27 best firefox extensions that I am currently using. It received a lot of attention so I'm putting a lighter version of the article under the useful links section.

Check out my new web project, Djangopedia. It's a wiki for Django Reinhardt's recorded songs. I want to use djangopedia to make it an encyclopedia of Django's songs, each entry containing discography information, a simplified chart, audio and video links from various musicians, and links to analysis and ideas for improvisation. It grows rapidly! I've put already 19 of django's greatest tunes and I'm adding 1 to 2 tunes per day.

As
I had few requests for it, I cleaned up the source
code for the Java applet WebHangman and I made it available
on the download page. I also
created an entry on my blog
for users to leave
feedback for the online WebHangman. Please visit and let
me know what you think.
