I was feeling kinda down and few things seem to cheer me up like reading about cool technology.
Five Cool Technologies:
- XML Blaster is MOM (Message Oriented Middleware) as they like to call it. It's XML messaging that works over CORBA, RMI or XML-RPC. It's a publish/subscribe or point to point MOM server. They have some ideas about how it might be used.
- eXist is my favorite native XML database at the moment. It just keeps getting cooler.
- Cocoon is an oldie but a goodie. I'm still using v1 to run everything on gnumatt.org but I've acquired new servers so I planning on putting the latest rev of cocoon on those and going wild.
- Web Entourage has been putting out cool OS X blogging tools like BlogApp and BlogScript.
- Moveable Type is very well designed code wise, and it is a delight to read through Ben's code. It would be fun to add XSLT support to the template generation routines.
Yeah Emily just showed up! Time to go play.
