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.

Want to see how popular you are on the Web? I recently found a pretty neat program that checks your popularity against some other web sites that you might be competing against for eyeballs out there on the Web. Link Popularity Check does an alright job and giving you the facts and figures you need.
Once you get Link Popularity Check installed, this is the type of readout they deliver to you:
The positive of this program is it gives you a nice visual representation of where you stand out there with some of your competitors. It searches Google, HotBot, AllTheWeb and MSN search. The downside is that you have to put up with some advertisements and be careful not to give your e-mail address to their “newsletter”. As you can see a lot of information there to comb through to find out what is working and what you might need to work on.

When leaving Lockergnome and mainly the web developer newsletter, I was sad to see it go. Now though I am excited to drive the working and dedication to a new project - helping to build up Lunarpages Lunartics blog. This blog is the official blog of Lunarpages, and I think I have done some good things for it.
Covering topics like learning the basics of HTML might be shunned some places, but due to the nature of being a helpful resource for both hosting experts and novices, I have a better and bigger chance to write for a wider range of subjects.
Now don’t get me wrong - I highly doubt I am a really huge factor either way for it’s slowly growing success, I am just happy to be along for the ride and helping people who need it.
Lunarpages customer or not, I would highly suggest subscribing to the RSS feed for Lunartics and if you have any feedback, suggestions, thoughts or anything else - you know me I am an open book and easy to get a hold of.

Always willing to try a new thing, if you have not noticed lately we have had a number of great guest postings here on Mitchelaneous. From copywriting to Ubuntu - I think it has been nice to see a few new posts from another opinion here on the web site. Apparently so do you - because the number of page views over the past few weeks has gone up.
Want to get a few guest writers on your own web site? Here is something to keep in mind.
Make sure you go after your friends first. If anybody will be willing to help you out, it will be the people that know you best. After that - recruitment might move into the realm of blogs you like to read or people who like to read your blog. All I did was post the offer or deal out there, and I have been more than happy with the result. Read the rest of this entry »
