  • Faceted clas­si­fi­ca­tions are increa­sin­gly com­mon on the World Wide Web, espe­cially on com­mer­cial web sites (Adkisson 2003). This is not surprising—facets are a natu­ral way of orga­ni­zing things. Many web desi­gners have pro­ba­bly redi­sco­ve­red them inde­pen­den­tly by asking, “What other ways would peo­ple want to view this data? What’s ano­ther way to slice it?” A sur­vey of the lite­ra­ture on apply­ing facets on the web (Denton 2003) shows that libra­rians think it a good idea but are unsure how to do it, while the web peo­ple who are already doing it are often una­ware of S.R. Ranganathan, the Classification Research Group, and the deca­des of history behind facets.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part VI

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about the trou­ble with distri­bu­ted systems infra­struc­tu­res that attempt to make the net­work trans­pa­rent, and object-relational map­pings that attempt to make the data­base invi­si­ble. The con­ver­sa­tion is also joi­ned by Dan Fernandez, Microsoft’s Product Manager for C#, and Eric Gunnerson, C# Compiler Program Manager.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part V

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about DLL hell and inter­face con­tracts, strong names, and the impor­tance of interoperability.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part IV

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about why C# instance methods are non-virtual by default and why pro­gram­mers must expli­ci­tly indi­cate an override.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part III

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about dele­ga­tes and C#‘s first class treat­ment of com­po­nent concepts.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part II

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about ver­sio­na­bi­lity and sca­la­bi­lity issues with chec­ked exceptions.

  • A Conversation with Anders Hejlsberg, Part I

    Anders Hejlsberg, the lead C# archi­tect, talks with Bruce Eckel and Bill Venners about the pro­cess used by the team that desi­gned C#, and the rela­tive merits of usa­bi­lity stu­dies and good taste in lan­guage design.

  • Pictory is a sho­w­case for peo­ple around the world to docu­ment their lives and cul­tu­res. Anyone can sub­mit one large, cap­tio­ned image to each of Pictory’s edi­to­rial themes.

    Why just one photo? I want you to pick your best image — and, it’s really inte­re­sting to com­pare work from dif­fe­rent con­tri­bu­tors on the same topic. Other sites offer photo essays and bodies of work from one pho­to­gra­pher, but I want to help a diverse group of peo­ple put toge­ther col­la­bo­ra­tive photo essays.

  • Atlas helps you focus on what’s uni­que about your appli­ca­tion, whe­ther you’re tar­ge­ting the Desktop, the Web, or both.
  • Build Desktop Class Applications in Objective-J and JavaScript.

    Cappuccino is an open source fra­mework that makes it easy to build desktop-caliber appli­ca­tions that run in a web browser

  • Helma NG stands for Helma Next Generation and is a ver­sion of Helma built from the ground up. The main dif­fe­ren­ces bet­ween Helma 1 and Helma NG are that Helma NG has a much smal­ler and lea­ner Java core (mostly just run­time, shell, and the module and resource loa­der), and that Helma NG aims to pro­vide full CommonJS interoperability.
  • Narwhal is a cross-platform, multi-interpreter, gene­ral pur­pose JavaScript plat­form. It aims to pro­vide a solid foun­da­tion for buil­ding JavaScript appli­ca­tions, pri­ma­rily outside the web bro­w­ser. Narwhal inclu­des a pac­kage mana­ger, module system, and stan­dard library for mul­ti­ple JavaScript inter­pre­ters. Currently Narwhal’s Rhino sup­port is the most com­plete, but other engi­nes are avai­la­ble too.
  • Welcome to CommonJS, a group with a goal of buil­ding up the JavaScript eco­sy­stem for web ser­vers, desk­top and com­mand line apps and in the browser.
