There and Back Again

I finally got through my incoming bookmark category and read up on all the AJAX stuff that looked useful. I also updated my resource browser code to allow you to browse by any tag.

I also had a couple other non AJAX related sites that look interesting.
First is Yahoo’s Term Extraction webservice, im not sure if its a good thing or not since the beauty of tags is that they are human created metadata, but I can see it being quite useful to add tags like to a large set of documents to make them more usable. I also ran into TinyMCE, one of those javascript rich text editors, the plugins support looks great for easy customization, which is something I always find I need when im trying to shoehorn one of these things in a current app.

Finally here are the new items in the resource library, If you click on a category you can read the extended description, and see the extra information i’ve got tags to the items.
