Busy weekend. Let's unload some of these browser tabs.
- Improving Code using Metric_fu - A concrete example of how metrics can drive better code.
- Eventbug (alpha) Released - New firebug extension to help in debugging event-related issues.
- Firefox 3.6 Beta 1 - Probably about time for developers to think about upgrading. I've been running 3.7 alphas with no serious trouble myself.
- New in the Twitter gem: Lists! - Just in case you want to code against Twitter's new shiny.
- Limelight - Ruby/JRuby backed desktop cross-platform UI framework. Looks interesting.
- Ruby / Method aliasing and chaining - Good discussion of method chains and the dreaded alias_method_chain.
- FireQuery - Firebug extension for jQuery development.
- Really easy continuous integration with Signal - A Rails-backed CI server.
- trap_door - Rails plugin to send spambots off to a trap.
