The permission viewer application is a diagnostic tool for viewing permissions in a Telligent Evolution platform community. It allows you to view permissions in a tabular form which can make diagnosing permission based issues easier.
A new tool called Sitecore Rocks has been released in a CTP (Community Technology Preview) version - a early sneak peek. The tool, although a little rough around the edges, really shows a bright new future for Sitecore development, a future where we as developers do not need to muck about with browsers interfaces, only to connect our code, .NET pages and user controls into Sitecore. Now we can stay within in the tool we use and like, Visual Studio.
Composite C1 is a free open source web content management system based on Microsoft .NET technology. C1 is aimed at communicators who need to easily manage content on corporate websites while maintaining a consistent visual identity. C1 comes fully featured, it's straightforward to use, easy to extend, and integrates with other systems beautifully.
By default, all popular Web browsers assume the HTTP protocol. In doing so, the software prepends the 'http://' onto the requested URL and automatically connect to the HTTP server on port 80. Why then do many pages explictly set http on all hypertext links? Surely it is easier to type "domain.com" than "http://domain.com".
HTTP is also deprecated due to the ever-evolving web: The HyperText Transfer Protocol is no longer used to transfer hypertext. It is increasingly becoming used a means to transfer any content over port 80. Thus the definition "http" no longer means anything in the context of a URL since you are unlikely to be requesting hypertext.
As the web evolves, next generation protocols will begin to replace http. By explicitly using "http://domain.com" in your links you are forcing your viewers of the future into using an obsolete protocol. By using "//domain.com" you will guarantee the protocol of tomorrow will work with your pages of today.
Succinctly, use of the http protocol is redundant and time consuming to communicate. The internet, media, and society are all better off without it.
Browserscope is a community-driven project for profiling web browsers. The goals are to foster innovation by tracking browser functionality and to be a resource for web developers.
The Closure Library is a broad, well-tested, modular, and cross-browser JavaScript library. You can pull just what you need from a large set of reusable UI widgets and controls, and from lower-level utilities for DOM manipulation, server communication, animation, data structures, unit testing, rich-text editing, and more.
