FriendFeed Blog: Share your FriendFeed activity on Twitter
With this new feature we get close to being able to use FF as the interface to Twitter in total. All I need is for FF to grok all @dalmaer from the firehose and put them into the FF comment stream. Then, sync twitter friends to FF (making the pseudo users if they aren't on FF). Game over.
Towards headless IDEs
"Yesterday I came across Eclim, which is a blend of Eclipse and Vim. Its novel idea? Keep using Vim as your editor, take advantage of Eclipse's power (when you're doing Java, I guess). The way it's done is by starting a headless Eclipse instance that exposes an API, and communicating with it. Your editor is still responsive and you get all the cool refactorings and completions that Eclipse provides."
XUL, Meet HTML - It’s All Good
"The use of HTML, SVG and specifically, <canvas> in XUL is not new. You’ll find many examples of add-ons and applications that go beyond XUL to create elements of the UI. XUL itself uses HTML as a foundation for implementing widgets."
