An open source framework for building search clustering engines. It can automatically organize small collections of documents, e.g. search results, into thematic categories. Carrot2 can add clustering of search results to an existing search engine. Its algorithms should successfully cluster up to about a thousand text documents, a few paragraphs each.

The idea of JDojo is to bring JavaScript and Dojo to Java. To achieve this, JDojo provides Java stubs for existing Dojo and JavaScript types a compiler participant to the Eclipse Java compiler that emits JavaScript files for each Java file compiled The programmer does not program against the Java JDK classes, but against Dojo and JavaScript stubs that JDojo provides. The compiler participant only allows a subset of the existing JDK classes and also limits the Java language constructs that can be used. To support important features that exist in JavaScript but are not available in Java, JDojo provides Java annotations that the programmer can use to instruct the compiler how to translate code. While the compiler still produces class files, what is of interest is the JavaScript code. Only the generated JavaScript code is executable, the Java code is not. Contrary to Java-JavaScript cross compilers, JDojo does not add anything on top of the JavaScript and Dojo types. JDojo programmers program against the DOM, Dojo widget and other existing Dojo classes the same way as they would do it when programming JavaScript. Therefore, the Java code a JDojo programmer writes looks very similar to the JavaScript code he would have written. However, the programmer now can take advantage of a typed programming environment and benefit from the Eclipse Java Tooling. The translator produces JavaScript that looks as similar as possible to the Java code (without the types), and matches what a JavaScript programmer would have written. This is important when executing and debugging the generated JavaScript; it is still easy to understand the JavaScript code and map a bug back to the Java code. JDojo also fits nicely in the existing Jazz web bundles. JDojo code is placed in a new Java source folder, while the generated JavaScript is inserted in 'resources' folder that also holds existing JavaScript code. To use existing JavaScript code in JDojo, 'Stub' classes can be added, containing only th

" From time to time I need to debug OAuth-protected APIs, checking response headers and examining XML and JSON payloads. curl generally rocks for this sort of thing, but when the APIs in question are protected with OAuth, things break down. Likewise for benchmarking (ab, httperf, etc.) and exploration-isn't it nice to browse APIs that return XML in Firefox? This needn't to be the case. Enter oauth-proxy This is why I wrote oauth-proxy. It does what it says on the tin: it acts a proxy server that transparently adds OAuth headers to requests."

"iScroll 4 is a complete rewrite of the original iScroll code. The script development began because mobile webkit (on iPhone, iPad, Android) does not provide a native way to scroll content inside a fixed width/height element. This unfortunate situation prevents any web-app to have a position:absolute header and/or footer and a scrolling central area for contents. While latest Android revisions are supporting this functionality (although support is not optimal), Apple seems reluctant to add one finger scrolling to divs. In addition to all previous iScroll features, version 4 introduces: Pinch / Zoom Pull up/down to refresh Improved speed and momentum Snap to element Customizable scrollbars"

You can add, annotate, cluster, layer, pan, resize, tweet, embed and share the content you've collected. "The real uniqueness to middlespot is the flexibility of the interface. middlespot's user interface is based on a borderless work surface that you can populate with anything you like. You'll recognize similarities in navigating this work surface just like you magnify, pan, and improve resolution when using programs like google maps."
