OTN forums get a new look
Just had a glimpse. OTN forums has got a new look. A bunch of new features has also been added. Some of the new things i noticed are:
- That simple editor is now rich text editor. Also supports emoticons.
- You can add tags to a post and it displays the tag cloud (for all the posts) on right side.
- A post can be marked as a question and then there will be some points system based on answers.
- That list of Top users doesn’t show those users n ACEs. It display a new list of people instead.
- Report Abuse button has been added (with each reply).
May be there are some other changes too. That is what i noticed in the very first look.
Nice change indeed ! I am not happy with the font though, it is very small

A database – one tablespace & one datafile
Today I was checking OTN forums and came across a thread. OP’s concern was:
One of the db i am supporting has about 3.3 Terabytes capacity and the application is using only 1 huge tablespace with one big file.
the system is linux 4 , 32 bit.
oracle version is 10.2.0.4
Is there a limit of space for a tablespace when you consider insert/delete/query performance?
Single datafile of 3.3 TB 
Awesome !
Kudos to the designer
