Book Review: Practical Rails Projects »

links for 2007-12-02

  • 24 ways: Transparent PNGs in Internet Explorer 6
    Great. I’ve used Drew’s previous sleight script numerous times, so the new Super Sleight seems like a great addition to the toolkit
    (tags: 24ways internetexplorer png)
  • Mediamatic Lab releases PHP OAuth server and client « OAuth
    (tags: api oauth php)
  • Acquia, my Drupal startup | Dries Buytaert
    With his studies coming to an end Dries Buytaert is forming a company that will let him work on drupal core professionally. Good to hear discussion of drupal 7 becoming more of a data repository with APIs a plenty.
    (tags: acquia drupal startup)
  • Designing for Civil Society: Do e-petitions make a real difference? We may never know
    Apparently civil servants talked about doing a formal independent evaluation of the Number 10 petitions website, but then dropped the plans. That’s a shame as there’s a lot more they could do with it and a review would have built pressure for that.
    (tags: edemocracy epetitions mysociety participationtools)
  • How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media: Putting Effective (Online) Social Networking Into Practice
    Good comments from Micah Sifry (quoted in the post). "meet people as people first"
    (tags: nptech socialnetworking)
  • Ticketmaster Unleashes the Widget for Its Nefarious Agenda
    Ticketmaster are now offering affiliate schemes, but with only a 1% cut. Given how much most music fans seem to loathe ticketmaster, with their poor service and ridiculous pricing policies, I’m guessing this won’t work well.
    (tags: musicindustry ticketmaster)
  • How to turn your rails site into an OAuth Provider
    OAuth seems to be gaining a lot of traction very quickly, at least in the developer community. That’s great news for anyone who wants to do integration without asking users to hand over all their passwords.
    (tags: authentication oauth rubyonrails security)
  • OpenAerialMap Is Ready For Your Data
    "OpenAerialMap is a site for collecting, hosting, and mapping freely available aerial imagery."
    (tags: mapping neogeography)
  • David Emery Online: Universally Clueless
    Good response to the comments in Wired from Universal Music Group CEO Doug Morris
    (tags: dougmorris musicindustry universalmusicgroup wired)
  • Why DataMapper?
    DataMapper is an a Ruby ORM that can be used as an alternative to ActiveRecord. Definitely looks worth a try some time
    (tags: activerecord database datamapper orm ruby)
