"Love JavaScript? Now you can write desktop apps, widgets, and web pages all using the same platform." ..that made me giggle :-)
On the serious side, http://ajaxian.com/archives/adobe-apollo-at-max sounds like fun, wonder if I can write nice apps with RIFE and OpenLaszlo..

DRM == 'Defective by design'
Today its the 'Day against DRM.
Please take action if you can, to avoid having to go through alot of (illegal) hoops to be able to play your media on your mediadevice or software of choice.
(Yes, this is also googlebombing which the defectivebydesign folks ask to do in one of their action items, please bomb along)

Free AJAX course online
I don't want to bury Geerts' facebook news (http://rifers.org/blogs/gbevin/2006/8/16/facebook_uses_rife), but I found this nice AJAX course on http://www.javapassion.com/ajaxcodecamp/. I still have to start with the first lesson, but a quick glance shows that its quite well done, and I'd take it if only for learning more about Firebug's Javascript debugging capabilities.

Simple small things to improve
When a website is a big as e.g. blogspot.com, you'd expect them to at least have nailed the nitty gritty interface details. When I commented on the blog I linked to in the last post, I found these small things which made me wonder why people can't 'put the dot on the i' (pay attention to the last little details) as we say in dutch.
The small details I'm talking about are:
  1. When there is 1 (one) comment, they say '1 comments'. This might be faster to execute (no code needed), but if that's really the reason I would be very much surprised :-)
  2. If you comment on a story and choose 'anonymous', the submit button is still called 'Login and Publish', which was a bit confusing to me. A little Javascript is not too much to ask here is it, and otherwise a different title for the button maybe..
I told you these were little details, but thats where the devil is ;-)
