Following on from the wildly successful Stack Overflow programming questions and answers website, Jeff Atwood and Joel Spolsky have launched Server Fault, a questions and answers site following the same format but now for “system administrators and IT professionals” (currently in Private Beta, click here for sign-up instructions).

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.

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.
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.

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:
