I’ve just launched a new website for Tubecaster. The new site was created with Django, with which I’m extremely impressed.
The new site also contains bug reporting and feature request links.

Firefox Tip: More room on your Bookmarks Toolbar
I’m a huge fan of the Windows Quick Launch bar. Mine is two lines high and contains 20 shortcuts, all of which I use almost every day. Similarly, I have also become accustomed to using the Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox. Unfortunately even with a widescreen monitor the bar fills up quickly thanks to the horrendous amount of web browsing I do.
Balsamiq Mockups, donated license
The wonderful folks at Balsamiq have graciously donated a license for their Mockups user interface design software to the Tubecaster project to help with future improvements. I just want to say a huge thank you to Mariah and the Balsamiq team for this, and to encourage everyone to check out this fantastic piece of software.

Python Line Counter
Yesterday I was looking for a Python source code line counter to give me a summary of some source files, but I couldn’t find a free one that would do the job as I wanted. So I created one. And you can have it for free (GNU GPL) – download it here:
Sample usage:
cmd> plc.py tubecore.py tubewx.py tubewxdialogs.py Input files: tubecore.py tubewx.py tubewxdialogs.py Total lines: 1510 Code lines: 1111 Comment lines: 139 Blank lines: 260
