TypeLink. Your own cloud-based wiki notepad, accessible anywhere TNW Quick Hit TypeLink (free) is a cloud-based personal wiki notepad. One types on an iOS device or the service’s site, and it syncs information entered across each device. Hits: Minimalist design, allowing one to organize information easily, share it with others and access it at any time. Misses: No Android app, yet. Overall: 4.5/5 The Details: For the most part it’s safe to assume we are all note takers in some form, composing them on sticky notes, paper, one’s hands, smartphones, computers, and now tablets. It’s also safe to assume, with the rise of e-mail, document sharing over e-mail has grown, with individuals e-mailing documents back and forth, back and forth, and so on, each time the document requires a revision or is lost by one of the parties. TypeLink, created by Joshua Justice, is a dead simple method of creating a personal, cloud-based, wiki with limitless potential. To begin, create a free account on TypeLink’s site, then download the free iPhone and iPad apps.

Addressing Doubts about REST Invariably, learning about REST means that you’ll end up wondering just how applicable the concept really is for your specific scenario. And given that you’re probably used to entirely different architectural approaches, it’s only natural that you start doubting whether REST, or rather RESTful HTTP, really works in practice, or simply breaks down once you go beyond introductory, “Hello, World”-level stuff. In this article, I will try to address 10 of the most common doubts people have about REST when they start exploring it, especially if they have a strong background in the architectural approach behind SOAP/WSDL-based Web services. 1. This is the most common reaction I see among people who are skeptical about REST benefits. First of all, the HTTP verbs - GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE - do not have a 1:1 mapping to the CRUD database operations. Of course in many, if not most cases, using a GET to compute something might be the wrong approach. 2. 3. The short answer is: No. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Open Web Podcast #1 Decided to start something new with Dion Almaer (of Ajaxian.com fame) and Alex Russell (Dojo frame) – a podcast! We talk about the “Open Web” (the topics break down in to standards, development, JavaScript, tools – all sorts of things). We’re working to get it up on iTunes (I’ll be sure to update when it that’s the case) but in the meantime you can subscribe to the RSS feed. Dion has written up a nice overview of the first episode, which I’ve included below: Welcome to the inaugural episode of a new podcast to cover news, happenings, and our opinions on the Open Web (download the Open Web Podcast episode one directly or subscribe to it). What is the state of the Open Web? That is how we started out the podcast, and we got to see very different opinions. We have a detailed chat about Web Workers, and where we see them being useful. John brought up the new data- embedding tactic that showed up in the HTML 5 spec. Next, we delve into the world of Firebug. Comments are closed.
A Brief Introduction to REST You may or may not be aware that there is debate going on about the “right” way to implement heterogeneous application-to-application communication: While the current mainstream clearly focuses on web services based on SOAP, WSDL and the WS-* specification universe, a small, but very vocal minority claims there’s a better way: REST, short for REpresentational State Transfer. In this article, I will try to provide a pragmatic introduction to REST and RESTful HTTP application integration without digressing into this debate. I will go into more detail while explaining those aspects that, in my experience, cause the most discussion when someone is exposed to this approach for the first time. Key REST principles Most introductions to REST start with the formal definition and background. Give every “thing” an ID I’m using the term “thing” here instead of the formally correct “resource” because this is such a simple principle that it shouldn’t be hidden behind terminology. Link things together
