According to Yahoo!'s Exceptional Performance Team, 40% to 60% of Yahoo!'s users have an empty cache experience and about 20% of all page views are done with an empty cache (see this article by Tenni Theurer on the YUIBlog for more information on browser cache usage). This fact outlines the importance of keeping web pages as lightweight as possible. Improving the engineering design of a page or a web application usually yields the biggest savings and that should always be a primary strategy. With the right design in place, there are many secondary strategies for improving performance such as minification of the code, HTTP compression, using CSS sprites, etc. In terms of code minification, the most widely used tools to minify JavaScript code are Douglas Crockford's JSMIN, the Dojo compressor and Dean Edwards' Packer. Each of these tools, however, has drawbacks. JSMIN, for example, does not yield optimal savings (due to its simple algorithm, it must leave many line feed characters in the code in order not to introduce any new bugs). The goal of JavaScript and CSS minification is always to preserve the operational qualities of the code while reducing its overall byte footprint (both in raw terms and after gzipping, as most JavaScript and CSS served from production web servers is gzipped as part of the HTTP protocol). The YUI Compressor is JavaScript minifier designed to be 100% safe and yield a higher compression ratio than most other tools. Tests on the YUI Library have shown savings of over 20% compared to JSMin (becoming 10% after HTTP compression). Starting with version 2.0, the YUI Compressor is also able to compress CSS files by using a port of Isaac Schlueter's regular-expression-based CSS minifier.

"The OFCGWT project provides a simple to use chart widget for GWT based on Open Flash Chart 2. The library includes the needed flash insertion, update and manipulation methods for the chart widget. It also includes a POJO model for the chart elements and components that assist in the generation of the JSON to provide the correct chart data for OFC 2.x API. The project has released a beta of version 2.x and a stable 1.3.x release - with over 12,000+ downloads !! Note: A beta of v2.0 (GWT 1.6 support) does contain breaking API for those coming from the 1.X version of OFCGWT - it contains new refactored events and a new chart factory, better attach/detach support, new charts features(new Horizontal Stack Bar Chart, enhanced animations based on OFC Ichor with DZ fixes and patches).

The Dependent Web is dominated by companies that deliver services, content and advertising based on who that service believes you to be: What you see on these sites "depends" on their proprietary model of your identity, including what you've done in the past, what you're doing right now, what "cohorts" you might fall into based on third- or first-party data and algorithms, and any number of other robust signals. The Independent Web, for the most part, does not shift its content or services based on who you are. Who we believe we are in the world is pretty fundamental to being human, and as we bleed our actual identity into our digital one, it's worth recalling that so far, at least, we don't have a system that lets us really instrument who we are online in a fashion that scales to the complexity of true human interaction. I sense an opportunity to create a new kind of social identity..one that is far more personal and instrumented...

Right now you are a bundle of information in mind and body. You have unique memories; your cells have undergone chemical changes shared by no one else in the world. When you die, none of this information will vanish, because it can't. There is nowhere for plus and minus, positive and negative to go since the field contains nothing but information. Therefore their only alternative is to recombine. There is growing evidence that in fact we do share the same mind field. The brain belongs to "me," but if ideas belong to "us," then we are participating together in a field, sometimes quite mysteriously.

"mine field"!? Hmmmm could be a mine field. If the mind field had a Profile Web Page it could give you a choice: [ ] Public (all your thoughts will be shared across the mind field). [ ] Private (your thoughts will not be shared. Of course, then their are the hackers! Arghhhhhh!

This extension automatically detects mobile devices using values in HTTP_USER_AGENT (browser identity) and changes the skin used to display the requested page. If HTTP_USER_AGENT does not contain any known mobile indicators (e.g. "iphone", "smartphone", "blackberry", etc) the page will display with the user's default skin as defined in his or her preferences.

When using social networks for business is it good to have tens of thousands of friends on Facebook? Should you be following as many people as possible on Twitter? Do you need to connect with every single person you meet on Linked In?

With User Labor, we propose an open data structure, User Labor Markup Language (ULML), to outline the metrics of user participation in social web services. Our aim is to construct criteria and context for determining the value of user labor for distribution. We believe that universality, transparency, and accessibility of user labor metrics will ultimately lead to more sustainable service cycles in social web. ULML outlines the metrics user labor, but does not provide direction for calculating its value. Calculating the value of labor is a fairly subjective matter, and formulations may vary from service to service. In order to deal with this subjectivity in the best way possible, the metrics of user labor need to be accessible and transparent as a basis for initiating actual value discussions. >> aka: PEERS IMS needs this info to calculate value!
