  1. @r1c1 Heh, no. I'm talking about music ;)
  2. I once drove through Nova Scotia, and one day early in the morning (7am) I passed by this bagpipe school with a guy playing in front. Magic.
  3. Somebody's playing a bagpipe in our neighborhood every Saturday night. I don't mind, I actually like bagpipe music.
  4. Google - We do it beta.
  5. Stupid title, but good article about visualization and open data. Yours truly also makes an appearance. http://clicky.me/1uj
  6. Very nice! RT @nils_gehlenborg: Gender pay gap in the UK in 2009: http://bit.ly/3DmFFb. ProtoVis is fun!
  7. Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, "A Glorious Dawn" available for download as mp3, etc. http://tinyurl.com/yaocogt (via @DaddyD)
  8. Interesting response to the Facebook iPhone app developer quitting over Apple's policies, by @jeff_lamarche http://clicky.me/1r3

  14. My take on that great xkcd movie chart: http://joeparry.com/blog/?p... Great overview of narrative visualizations (via @parry_joe)
  15. Seasoned JavaScript developer picks apart Google's Closure library http://clicky.me/closure
  16. @marlenac Thanks for the bug report, I'll look into it. Can't be the number of rows, census data has 100,000s. Probably num of categories.
  17. Heh, Donut Seeds http://clicky.me/donutseeds
  18. Looks like @tweetie is silently ignoring retweets posted using the new/beta retweet feature.
  19. Google's Go doesn't strike me as interesting. It's odd syntax with Scala's actor model.
  20. RT @jeff_lamarche: So, Google puts out a language that isn't good enough yet to user internally and hopes everyone will jump on and do t ...
