Boxee: The Firefox of Streaming Video Adds a new API
"But the really big news in this release is what’s under the hood: a new Boxee API.
The API will allow developers to build Boxee add-ons, much like Firefox developers. At the moment there isn’t much to see, but expect this to take off as curious users with an itch to scratch dig into the API and start experimenting.
The other big part of the latest alpha is Boxee’s new XULRunner browser (think Firefox without the skin). Boxee’s new XULRunner underpinnings mean you can now add just about any video RSS feed to Boxee and it’ll automatically pull in the latest episodes of your favorite shows."

gauge.js (javascript programmable gauge)
Mmmm this looks so nice!
"gauge.js 1.0 allows you to add gauges (with shading and reflection) to your webpages. It uses unobtrusive javascript to keep your code clean."
