Tab Candy rocks!

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Tab Candy, a forthcoming addition to Firefox (you can get it built into a version of Firefox 4 beta here) is to Tab’s what Tab’s where to pages.

Tab Candy, lets you group tab’s together, name them and share them with others. why is this important? Well if your like me you’ll likely have a few browsers open, and a number (+10) tabs on each browser open which is fine except when you come to look for anything.

Just where did you put that cool NFAWW blog post you wanted to read?

But with Tab Candy you can organize your tabs so that all the cool blog posts you need to read can be kept together.

Building Dynamic Websites – Part 1 of 13 – HTTP

Monday, June 14th, 2010

Today’s websites are increasingly dynamic. Pages are no longer static HTML files but instead generated by scripts and database calls. User interfaces are more seamless, with technologies like Ajax replacing traditional page reloads. This course teaches students how to build dynamic websites with Ajax and with Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP (LAMP), one of today’s most popular frameworks. Students learn how to set up domain names with DNS, how to structure pages with XHTML and CSS, how to program in JavaScript and PHP, how to configure Apache and MySQL, how to design and query databases with SQL, how to use Ajax with both XML and JSON, and how to build mashups. The course explores issues of security, scalability, and cross-browser support and also discusses enterprise-level deployments of websites, including third-party hosting, virtualization, colocation in data centers, firewalling, and load-balancing.
