The team behind Meteora have set out to do something different and cool. They have launched a lunch box filled with rich and customizable web applications that you can use right here, right now. No pages of documentation to be read, and no need for excessive programing knowledge.
Here are a few more details from the developers:
Meteora is built on top of MooTools and the package comes with a full version of that framework. If you’re already a MooTools user you may read Quick start for mootools users, if you have not used MooTools before just keep reading.
After you have uncompressed Meteora, you’ll notice that it’s around 1.1M in size, this is mainly because of all the images it contains, also because it’s distributed with a full version of the MooTools framework. But do not worry about loading times, with Meteora’s automatic dependency resolution your browser will download only the javascript the page needs and nothing more.
I do have to say, some of this looks even easy enough for me to wrap my head around. These tools would be perfect to slice into your recent project or web page and offer a lot of eye candy and functionality to the mix.
Not convinced yet? Check out the demos to see this powerful set of tools at work.

Since I got my Nintendo DS I really haven’t given my PlayStation Portable much attention. Poor PSP - I am deeply sorry. Now that I am “in between” games - I figured I might go out and see what playable demos are out there to kill some time before I decide on the next game and game system I’m going to tackle.
Thankfully the folks behind PSPFanboy.com have put together a running list of demos to check out and enjoy. Now I just have to find the time to download the interesting ones and actually play them.

There is no doubt in my mind that DemoWolf might be one of the most impressive companies of the entire year of 2006. If I was putting together a set of awards for the year, they would be taking home more than a few.
They have most recently launched a new service that will allow you to play anybody’s flash tutorials straight from your PC. The DemoSuite is the perfect tool for any Web host to pick up to provide to customers. It is one more way to enjoy those flash tutorials that DemoWolf puts out for the Web hosting industry as well.
DemoSuite is an application that web hosting companies can use to create a custom-branded Flash Player for their customers to download. The DemoSuite Flash Player is a desktop application that allows the customer to play their web host’s flash support tutorials directly from their Windows desktops.
Let’s be honest folks, DemoWolf has gone from being somebody who is nipping at DemoDemo’s heels to a major competitor. Now I have always been a friend of DemoDemo as well, so you will not see me picking sides. I do have to say though, impressive is what DemoWolf has really been these past few months.

Well I upgraded my PSP to the newest firmware yesterday. I haven’t had too much time to play with it, but I have loaded it up with some new goodies.
First things first, I dropped a few video podcasts on it. Sure, we all wanted streaming video, but I am just as happy with downloading videos via the RSS feed. This takes my PC out of the middle and lets me check out and manage a lot more video content.
I got the latest game demos as well for the PSP. Lots of fun to be had, I just wish that Sony would release game demos a little more often and wouldn’t make us jump through ten hoops to get them on the PSP.
The last thing I have done is added Blaugh’s RSS feed to my PSP RSS Feed Reader. Yeah, you can subscribe to images via RSS now as well.
All in all, I really like this newest firmware update. Now if we could only get those downloadable PSOne games coming, I would be one happy gamer.
