  • Command Line In Web Apps

    Excellent! Mozilla is releasing a command line library for use in web-apps. 

  • Initializr

    This looks pretty good.

  • O'Reilly Early Release

    I didn’t know about the O’Reilly Early Release program. Basically, it seems you can buy a book as it’s still being written, and give feedback while receiving updates and rewrites. Nice idea. I’m tempted to buy some of these.

  • Programming With A Mind Map

    Using a MindMap to store documentation. Actually it sounds like Freemind is much like an outliner, in that you can drive it with the keyboard and collapse / expand etc. I wonder how using this compares to LEO. (Hat-tip Other Michael)

  • JSON / RSS

    Dave Winer is considering an official(?) JSON flavour of RSS. I just want to say here that I like RSS, for what it is, and what it does, and I like JSON to actually work with, because parsing XML is still a faff. So it gets my vote.
