Processing
I’ve been tinkering with Processing recently, well trying to tinker with it. The coding skills are not quite up to scratch (I am working on it though (trying to anyway), would love to program my own DV) It’s Open Source language for specifically creating and prototyping data visualisations, the visualisations do not render in Safari [...]
Onebox – many results
Google’s Onebox search results get more intelligent and now keeps you up to date with the scores. It doesn’t stop at tennis though…

Far East Friends

I should really start to import things from the motherland
I’m always impressed by the quality and quantity of open source products available. My latest discovery is Magento, an open source eCommerce platform. With open source content management systems and eCommerce platforms of this caliber freely available, business possibilities for budding netrepreneurs are endless.
