Buzz of the day: Flogspot

This is fun. Josh Dura and his brother Daniel has been working on a project/site/app they call Flogspot

It looks like a lot of fun. Right now its a Flog like application with a flogspot forum attached to it. A desktop application is on its way, hopefully a Flash based and cross-platform application.

It is going to be very interesting to see how it all works out and how the dynamics of the project will affect the community and vice versa.

Perl version of AMF

This is cool. The AMF-PHP Flash remoting project has spawned a Perl project; FLAP - Flash remoting in Perl, making Flash remoting available for Perl coders.

What life would be like without Google

Duncan's blog:

For a little while this morning, I've experienced what life without Google would be like. For some reason, it's down (or at least the closest cluster to me is down) this morning. Worse, I'm doing a whole bunch of research for the book and am trying to munge through with other search engines. It just drives home how valuable a resource Google has become.

I found the same this weekend. Never thougth to mention it, but trying to do research while Google was down was no fun. In the end I ended up with using AllTheWeb.
