BoldSource - Bits and Beats from Blake Lucchesi

Git Immersion

A great set of tutorials if your still not up to speed with the latest and greatest source control system GIT.

Now that the official iPhone app has been submitted for approval, I’m working to upgrade the mobile html version of ChapterBoard. After reviewing a few mobile html development frameworks I’ve decided to use the jQuery Mobile framework. I’ll be sure to follow up with some thoughts as I continue building it out.

Classics by Ratatat

I’ve been listening to this quite a bit lately while my fingers dance on the keyboard. I find it to be quite delightful.

Before I wrap up, there’s one big issue I feel I’ve overlooked: the users. The people. The customers. Have great customer support. Remember they’re all people, and they’re all rooting for you. Even the ones who are really short in their bug reports. After all, they’re using your product and taking the time to give you their opinion, or experience. That’s incredibly valuable.

kod: CSS3 themable, Node.js powered editor for OS X

thechangelog:

It’s a very Merry Christmas for Mac developers. Rasmus Andersson has open sourced Kod, the “programmers’ editor for OS X.”

Built from the ground to feel like a native OS X app, Kod sports Chrome-style tear-off tabs and aims for full concurrency, taking advantage of additional CPU cores when loading files, performing syntax highlighting, and other intensive tasks.

Even with the provided integrated scripting environment powered by Node.js, perhaps the most impressive feature for the web geek is that Kod is fully themable using CSS3.

So if you’re still waiting on TextMate 2.0 and Vim or emacs isn’t your bag, then give Kod a try.
