As you know, music is an essential component to good web development. Pandora is a great, free, music-streaming website. The quality of the music is very good. It allows you to rate songs, so it "gets to know you", and will stream you new music based on your taste. Click the "minimize" button to make a nice, compact interface. It is superior to Launchcast in that it has no audio ads and no fast-forward limit.

The primary mission of the Subversion project is to "provide a compelling replacement for CVS." One of its secondary missions is to provide a user interface similar to CVS's, so that switching to Subversion will be painless for CVS users.
So, if you learn Subversion's new features, you're ready to start using it, right?
Almost. Although the interfaces are similar, there are some important differences. Subversion has some features that CVS either lacks or offers differently; plus, there's the need to unlearn some of the bad habits that CVS has instilled in you.
With that, I give you the top ten Subversion tips for CVS users. The first six tips address bad CVS habits; the last four address good Subversion habits.

Do you like using the Web Developer extension in Firefox? Well now there's a similar tool for IE. Seems to work well for viewing the DOM, adding table/div borders for trouble-shooting, modifying css values on-the-fly, changing browser resolution, quickly clear cache & cookies, etc.

A site-specific browser (SSB) for Leopard that lets you designate a separate instance for each of your favorite webapps. The Fluid SSB is based on WebKit, the Safari rendering engine, and it's handy for keeping Web-based utilities like Gmail and Facebook separate from the multitude of Firefox tabs you may have open at any given time.

Jeni Li says, "As you look at the votes and comments, bear in mind that the audience on this site consists of college Web developers -- not the actual target audience for the sites -- so what they like may not be what students like. But it's still a very interesting and useful gallery."
