debug mobile web pages easily with a simple JavaScript remote console.

If you code in JavaScript with TextMate make sure to install JavaScript Tools TextMate Bundle.

This bundle will, among other things, run JSLint each time you save a file and show you the amount of errors and warnings in that file.

Install it with just two lines and enjoy it :)

I wanted to code several scripts that would consume the Twitter Streaming API to get different stats with live data.

The Rate Limiting for the streaming API only allows one connection per IP address and blacklists IPs doing excessive connections:

Each account may create only one standing connection to the Streaming API. Subsequent connections from the same account may cause previously established connections to be disconnected. Excessive connection attempts, regardless of success, will result in an automatic ban of the client’s IP address. Continually failing connections will result in your IP address being blacklisted from all Twitter access.

I coded a small TCP service establishes one single connection to the Twitter Streaming API and echoes all the tweets to any client connected to the socket at /tmp/tweets.sock.

It allows you to consume the streaming API from several scripts in your computer with one single connection to Twitter and being able to restart the scripts without reconnecting to Twitter.

You can find the Twitter Stream Echo service in github.

Hello,

I am contacting you because I think you can give me some advice and help me out, I’m now looking for information, I’ve been doing a course in Ruby on Rails.. but I’ve been programming a blog, and now my tutor advised me to develop a game portal for my degree’s final project … He has actually offered me doing a parchis, very visual and multiplayer, where you can’t play against the machine …

I wanted to check if you can help me out. Right now I don’t even know where to start… My idea wat to write a blog while I’m developing the project in order to help other people.

Would you help me? Thank you

Something is terribly wrong with Spanish Universities when final-year students don’t know where to start with their final projects.
