Got a reminder about this very interesting technology today, definitely going to keep an eye on it, ’cause it’s going to be really cool!

I’ve been meaning to look into Git for a while now and I’ve finally found some time to do so.
Git is a free & open source, distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
I’ve been using SVN for some time and MS Visual SourceSafe before that. SVN was a big improvement over VSS and Git looks promising by claiming it’s faster than other revision control systems.
Working on a Windows machine made it a tiny bit harder to get Git up and running as it is developed for Linux. Luckily there are a lot of open source developers and some of them built MSysGit to have Git running on Windows in an easy way.
Another point is that a lot of developers have an SVN background and are switching to Git. As a result you can plenty of guides telling you how to use Git compared to SVN. The one I liked best is the “Git - SVN Crash Course” by Petr Baudis.
Obviously as Git is becoming more and more popular there are services popping up like Google code. GitHub for instance is one of them offering a variety of deals, from completely free to very large packages for businesses.

SourceBinder is a node based visual development environment for Flash 10.
Instead of writing code you assemble a set of building blocks on a canvas and wire those blocks together. This allows you to rapidly create Flash applications.
You can export those applications into regular Flash SWF file.
SourceBinder will be available free of charge for any purposes.
It reminds me a lot of Lego MindStorms

Quick reminder:
Protocol Buffers is a serialization format with an interface description language developed by Google. The design goals for Protocol Buffers emphasized simplicity and performance. In particular, it was designed to be faster than XML.
In other words: Lightning fast data transfer between various parts of a website.
FireBug

Screengrab
It will capture what you can see in the window, the entire page, just a selection, a particular frame… basically it saves web pages as images - either to a file, or to the clipboard.

I’ve been on the lookout for a font manager for Windows for a while now and haven’t been able to find anything yet.
I also don’t want to install a billion fonts as this slows your machine down significantly.
A colleague sent me this article on “What slows Windows down?” and it contained the solution to my quest above.
If you need a font for something, you only need to open it in the Windows font browser and it should become available in your application until you close the font browser. Installing and forgetting about fonts is a very easy way to slowly degenerate your boot times.
Now this might not work if you use a lot of fonts all the time, but for me it seems like the perfect solution.
Just a nice list of Flex Builder keyboard shortcuts. Always handy to have! 
Since a colleague and some blog post on Drawlogic have sparked my interest in Unity3D I haven been noticing more and more games that run in or from the browser.
There is Battlefield Heroes that is meant to be released somewhere this year.
Last Friday I discovered Quake Live (I kinda feel ashamed not knowing about that one earlier)
Combine this with Unity3D and you can clearly see a change is going to happen in the world of web (browser) games.
Before there were only Flash games, some of which are excellent! But now you can have a full blown 3D engine running in your browser, how awesome is that!
I keep on forgetting about this awesome 3D engine. It’s cross platform and cross browser! You can install the Unity3D plug-in without even needing to restart the browser.
The quality is just amazing!

Don’t know how much different this is from using Adobe’s WebService class though…
