Ajaxian released the results of their 2006 ajax-survey, asking more than 860 developers about their coding-habits. according to the survey, the leading ajax-framework clearly is Prototype, with about 43% of the developers using it to date, followed closely by the visual-effects library Script.aculo.us (33%) which is built on top of Prototype. Dojo, DWR and Moo.fx [...]
Scrapblog is a flash-based photo-blogging & -layout-tool similar to tabblo. starting a photo-page (’scrapblog’) is pretty straight-forward: just choose a template (there are not too many to choose from, though), upload some pics and drag&drop them onto the page. flickr-users will love the nice import-feature (take care, popup-blockers might interfere!), which even allows to filter [...]
just a quick reminder: Vienna’s very first Barcamp is going to take place in about one week – saturday, sept. 30th., 10am – at the One Smartspace (thx 2 One!). if you’re in town and want to hang out with the geeks, feel free to join us! [Barcamps are ad-hoc (un-)conferences/meetups without static agendas, everyone [...]
while Dave Winer’s rivers of news deservedly have gathered most interest of the mobile community over the last month (see TechCrunch, OM Daily), online feed-reader Bloglines offers a mobile version of its service since quite a while. the interface is almost as stripped down (and therefor fast) as Dave’s mobile rivers, with the big advantage [...]
the recommendable All about Linux-blog features a detailed walk through of many features introduced with the new version 7.0 of texteditor Vim (Vi-improved). highlights include spellchecking, ‘omni’-code completion for many predefined languages, tabbed user-interface and undo-branches. the latter is a life-saving time-machine: typing ‘:earlier 5m‘ rewinds the editor-buffer to its state 5 minutes ago [...]
I just discovered O’Reilly Code Search (Beta), a search engine indexing all the sample code of more than 700 books published by O’Reilly (that’s about 2.6mio lines-of-code ). snippets are annoted and linked with similar code from other books – a great resource for those owning an O’Reilly-collection worth several metres of shelfspace.
experimenting with Splice for the first time is quite an experience: using a flash-based online-sequencer, users arrange audio-loops and soundbites very similar to desktop apps like Reason or Fruity Loops. editing-functionality is reduced to the basics: clips are looped and automatically beat-matched on up to eight tracks which can only be adjusted in volume and [...]
iTunes 7 received loads of bad press immediately after last weeks release. especially Windows-users complain about heavily increased CPU- and memory-load, disfunctional download of cover-artwork, problems with certain iPod-models and destroyed installations. this reminds a lot of itTunes 6, which was quite buggy in its inital release as well (lets remember this when iTunes 8 [...]
ex-Rocketboom vlogging-celebrity Amanda Congdon launched her new video-project AmandaAcrossAmerica today. during the next five weeks, AAA will cover Amanda’s roadtrip in a hybrid car from NY to LA. sponsered by the National Resources Defense Counsil and Environmental Countdown, the show will take advantage of all the web2.0-tech we get to love: besides the obvious [...]
recently released Grazr 1.0 is a powerful web-widget displaying RSS-feeds and OPML outlines of any source. OPML (Outline Processor Markup Language) is an XML-based outline-format, usually consisting of linked lists of RSS-feeds. integrating Grazr into your website is fairly easy and requires nothing more than the source-URL of the feed/outline you want to browse. the [...]
