Web standards secret sauce
When Apple chose Webkit rather than Mozilla Gecko as the basis for its Safari browser, some of us in the web standards community scratched our heads. Sure, Webkit was open-source and standards-compliant. But, at the time, Gecko's standards support was more advanced, and Mozilla (in the form of Firefox, Camino, ... 10 July 2009

PHP Hidden Gem: similar_text()
Every once in a while you need to solve this unique problem. This problem that you usually only have to solve once or twice. So you start developing, but quickly wonder what the best solution is. You can write your own solution, but it pays off to at least search through PHP.net a bit to see if there is not already a solution for it in PHP.Source: Planet PHP 09 July 2009

In yet another interesting turn of events, two of the biggest issues when it comes to web design and development make way for the newer, better versions of themselves. Goodbye, IE6!

Addio XHTML2... strada spianata verso HTML5
Su Twitter e Reddit c’è stato un pullulare di messaggi fin dal tardo pomeriggio di ieri… la notizia ha dell’incredibile, almeno per com’è stata improvvisa. Il working group di XHTML2 sarà smantellato entro la fine di quest’anno! Prima o poi sapevamo che una notizia del genere nella guerra degli standard web ci sarebbe stata prima o poi, in una delle due opposte fazioni. Finalmente una decisione è stata presa: il working group contribuirà all’accelerazione degli sviluppi riguardo HTML5… posizione chiara, netta, come brevemente annuncia il comunicato ufficiale. È prevedibile, quindi, che alcune delle idee di XHML2 possano trovare luogo in HTML5. A tal proposito vi consiglio qualche lettura come questo articolo, HTML5 versus XHTML2, forse il migliore del genere.[continua...]Source: ZioBudda.net -

Risk Assessment in Software … and Terrorism Threats
This is the kind of article I love: it integrates software development, economics, cognitive bias, risk assessment, and security planning. Read the whole thing for links.

Google Ajax Feed API, progetto Open Source comunità degli sviluppatori web
Grazie a Google Code la comunità degli sviluppatori web beneficia di ottimi codici sorgenti da poter utilizzare nelle proprie applicazioni web. Ne è un esempio Google AJAX Feed API, una libreria in javascript che permette di scaricare e utilizzare qualsiasi feed pubblico di tipo RSS o Atom. In questo modo è possibile inserire feed esterni all’interno delle proprie pagine. Il tutto è gestito tramite un’interfaccia di tipo AJAX, per cui asincrona rispetto alla richiesta HTTP della pagina web. Tutte le funzioni sono ben documentate, in perfetto stile Google e sono messi a disposizione 3 esempi con cui cominciare a prendere dimestichezza con queste API. E’ necessaria la chiave che si può ottenere tramite un qualsiasi account Google.Source: ZioBudda.net -
