I like XP too. :D

I must admit that I'm still not using any of it. Just picked up a book about it few days ago. And many (basically all) things simply make sense.

Of course, I tried some things that it promotes on my own, before I even heard for XP. Like Pair Programming. I used that a lot on programming labs in High School and College. It works exactly as they say - two heads are better than one. One thinks locally (one that is typing the code) and the second thinks more globally while also checking for typos and doing other tasks like paperwork ...

Too bad I'm working as a freelancer so some of XP stuff simply wont work :(

Have you tried freelancing? Check out Scriptlance - I work there.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Come for the quick hacks, stay for the epiphanies.
