Me and my friends are quiet the tech enthusiasts and we are always looking for the best in latest technology. We got into a talk about LCD Monitors and TV’s this weekend and were talking about how much bigger and better they are now.
I stumbled upon this article the other day which pretty much sums up what is going on in the TV world at the moment. It’s worth a quick look just to marvel at the grand scale of these screens!
Go see the Monster TV’s for yourself!

I have been delving into the Javascript Frameworks yet again. When I think of Javascript Frameworks, I automatically think “AJAX”, but that actually is just a part of what they are.
When I think of Javascript Frameworks, these 4 come straight to mind:
I am sure there are others out there but these are the most popular ones that I have learnt about. I remember the first time when AJAX was being taunted with back in 2005. If I recall correctly, ProtoType was the first “Javascript Framework” to appear on the scene, taking hold of this new concept.
These days, more have popped up with very similar features and tools. They also focus on doing everyday tasks as well as handling AJAX. But admittedly, AJAX was the main reason why it spawned this new idea of creating “Frameworks” for Javascript.
The real point of this rant was to ask if anybody else knew of any other Javascript Frameworks? I want to have a look at some alternatives and see what they have to offer and to broaden my knowledge.
Thanks for reading!

For those budding PHP developers out there, you want to run your eyes over this!
Mantis is a free Bug Tracking tool like Trac but without the SVN fuctionality.
Why is this useful? There are several reasons.
It’s a quick and easy way to log issues for any type of project. Even if it’s a simple “todo” list for a small job, its a quick and easy. Without the mess of SVN.
