• The great divide - i like ellipses…
  on twittering Facebookers, or was it facebooking Twitterists: ' So is this openness really a good thing? (Of course not! My TV is gone!) '


• How Interface Has Helped Me - Abhijit Nadgouda
  ' Interface can be called the ultimate artefact of abstraction. '


• A Journey Into the Dumb-o-Sphere - Miguel de Icaza
  


• .NET Framework vs CLR - Pieter Gheysens
  It's important to get our facts straight, so read this carefully if you think the CLR and Framework versions run synchronously.


• Goodbye CodeBetter and ALT.NET - Sam Gentile
  I like most of the stuff coming out of Codebetter, although some of it is really too high level to me. Now, the last days suddenly we see all this ALT.NET bashing back and forth. Seems we have created a new divide, which is a sad thing in itself


• ALT.NET Should Be Divisive, But Not Contrarian - Phil Haacked
  Phil chimes in...


• Memory part 2: CPU caches - LWN.net
  ' What every programmer should know about memory '
  whoaa. If this part 2 is the last part, the complete Memory series takes 126 page-downs to complete...
  update: just found part 1. There will be 7 parts


• OAuth 1.0 is Here - Delegated Authority Comes to Mashups - Dare Obasanjo
  Interesting. Dare points to OAuth which tries to fix the security issue that we give one webapp the credentials for another one, only to get the data over there. Sounds good, but of course requires some more serious thinking and further investigation first. As for me, I will *NEVER EVER* hand over my Google/GMail credentials over to Pageflakes, no matter how handy a portal like that is.
