Blogging Apple's Keynote Faster Than a Greased Leopard (Rawr!)


There are many blog popularity-ranking services on the web, but unfortunately, they all rely on only one piece of data for their rankings. Either link popularity, RSS feeds or some sort of traffic-ranking service. We at eBizMBA have decided that in order to get a more accurate picture we needed to combine data from multiple sources.
The result:

Less than 5 seconds to publish. That's how fast our new liveblogging system will
be on Monday's Apple Keynote at 10AM PST.
We'll be able to deliver the words from El Jobso's mouth to your LCD faster
than any other blog by minutes. With nice photos. Cool, huh




Essential HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, and miscellaneous cheatsheets
There are a ton of free cheatsheets, quick references, and downloadable resources for programming languages and related technologies online -- in this post I've tried to organize and list some of the best for web development.
I've focused on HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP, since those are the languages we use most commonly at Ning, but many of these sites point to resources for other languages as well.

Maybe we'll stop by TUAWs
get together
after we're done. (Any other parties going on afterwards?)
Man, I'm stoked to be able to get the news to you guys that much faster. Big
thanks to Tom and Ian over in Gawker Tech, our tiny little dev team with huge
hearts and brains. But I'd be lying if I wasn't nervous about stress testing new
software on such a big day. No guts, no glory, hmm?

Climate & Intelligent Design



For everyone who teaches Creationism or "Intelligent Design" of life, the topics menu arranged by the creation story in the Bible are as follows:

In the beginning God created...
Matter, Light -- The first day;
Water, Motion -- The second day;
Land, Plant Kingdom -- The third day;
Solar System, Astronomy -- The fourth day;
Marine Life, Birds, Dinosaurs -- The fifth day;
Animal Kingdom
, Mankind -- The sixth day;
Learning
, Creationism -- The seventh day;
Beyond the seventh day -- Discovery.

There is a lot of debate about the similarities and differences in "Intelligent Design" theory and creationism. The debate on the issue is, in itself, interesting to research and holds a lot of interest who are interested in the origins of life. The search terms [ "intelligent design" creation ] provide a good variety of websites for research. I haven't found any GREAT sites for exploring these topics yet, but If I do, I will list them here.
