Yes, it has been another long break since I last sent an email with distracting links for people to look at. And I promise that they won’t all be JavaScript related today. A couple will, but the others are actually links to other languages entirely, ones which while I haven’t really had a lot of chance to look into, seem interesting.

Back by popular demand, I’m going to try and be a bit more organized in reminding myself to send these out. For those who are new, I am going to try to post a few interesting links to different technologies, libraries, applications, articles or whatever that are technology related. I’ll try to do it every Friday, but no guarantees. Also, if you run across something that is interesting that you would like to include, then by all means let me know.
The theme this week is more JavaScript focused.

In an interest of spreading some knowledge and coolness around the dev team, I’m hoping to start sending out a collection of interesting links to technologies, OS projects and other similar things on a weekly basis. Topics will vary, but given my personal interests will likely be web focused. Perhaps people can send links to me through the week with a brief description so we can get more variety. They aren’t necessarily related to work, but certainly could be relevant.
