Gearshift: Migrations, for Gears
Posted at 8:28 AM by Cameron Westland in Programming
One of the main detractors from Gears for me was the lack of migrations. This doesn't seem to be a problem anymore!

Bluff: Beautiful graphs in JavaScript
Posted at 2:36 PM by Cameron Westland in Programming
Bluff is a JavaScript port of the Gruff graphing library for Ruby. It is designed to support all the features of Gruff with minimal dependencies; the only third-party scripts you need to run it are a copy of JS.Class (about 2kb gzipped) and a copy of Google’s ExCanvas to support canvas in Internet Explorer. Both these scripts are supplied with the Bluff download. Bluff itself is around 8kb gzipped.

Cappuccino: 1 Week, 10,000 Downloads Later
Posted at 10:29 AM by Cameron Westland in Programming
I downloaded cappuccino the day it came out and have been slowly working my way through the framework. Having zero experience with Objective-C it's a little jarring, so it's great to hear they are committed to creating more examples and adding to the existing documentation. Congratulations on 10k!
