Fun stuff for Friday Dec. 2
Posted by: on
I’m slowly getting back on track after taking an extended holiday last week and then catching a cold this week. Needless to say, I’m pretty happy that it’s Friday, and I have a whole bunch of fun stuff to share, so let’s get to it.
Hackerbuddy has relaunched with a bunch of improvements and some new features. Full details in this article.
Doom 3 was open sourced and there’s already instructions on how to build it on a Mac using Xcode.
Google Code Search is getting shut down on Jan. 15, 2012. Miguel de Icaza compares alternatives.
Users of the beautiful Protovis visualization library that are making the switch to D3 (its replacement) might want to take a look at Luke Francl’s D3 for Mere Mortals.
Have you seen the new web API gateway from eBay that they’re calling ql.io? Apparently it uses a SQL-like syntax and allows you to communicate with multiple web APIs in the same call. Oh, and it’s not just for eBay APIs.
I must absolutely make myself a Jabba the Cupcake (via Boing Boing).
I’m a mechanical pencil nerd and the Kuru Toga is a must have.
Have a great weekend!
