Double Shot #271

Shaping up to be another busy week; fortunately the weekend was good for catching up this time.

• iCHM - Nice-looking CHM reader for OS X. Unfortunately I'm not finding that its search works as well as that in Chamonix.


• REST, I Just Don't Get It - Heretical musings from Damien Katz. The comments are well worth reading. Also worth reading is Dare Obasanjo's Explaining REST to Damien Katz.


• Use MacVim and rails.vim plugin to edit your Rails work - An alternative if you don't want to drink the TextMate koolaid.


• GitHub RubyGems - It really is dead simple to publish a gem via github.


• GemPlugins: A Brief Introduction to the Future of Rails Plugins - And it's easy to convert an existing plugin to a gem, too.


• App Update - Dashboard widget to track software freshness on your Mac.
