Serving YUI Files from Yahoo! Servers
Kudos to Yahoo! on sharing with the community for YUI. It was great to meet everyone at the event in Sunnyvale.
Google Apps: Integrate and Extend
John has done a great job looking at the APIs behind the buzz of Google Apps (Google Provisioning API, Google Single Sign-On API)
Introducing Active Reload and Lighthouse
