Wired's Star Trek's 100 Crew Members Ranked (With links)

Wired thought they would rile people up by ranking Star Trek characters. But, they just provided a list. No links with context or further info. So I've done that. Mainly I wanted to fiddle with a heroku app and learn Bootstrap. Please enjoy my really cruddy looking "app." I want to continue to work on it until it looks nice. Most of the links work. I may have missed one or two. It's an ongoing journey.

Pogoapp: PaaS hosting startup by a couple Mefites

We started out as Rails developers trying to script capistrano deployments and somehow ended up hacking together a full platform-as-a-service system, run on dedicated servers, with S3-compatible distributed storage and a REST API/build process that's mostly heroku-compatible (i.e. Procfiles and buildpacks and one-time-processes). We've got support for Ruby 1.9.3 and 2.0 preview including Rails, node.js/CoffeeScript, python, php, etc etc. [more inside]

Samsabot

A markovian text generator, tweeting away, starting with the text, "As Gregor Samsa awoke ...". Code can be found at https://github.com/willf/microsoft_ngram (in the examples directory). Enjoy such gems as "As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself in charge of our financial system," "Gregor Samsa awoke…to find himself transformed into an enormous social mechanism for the centralisation of the New Zealand parliament," and "Gregor Samsa awoke from a night of clubbing former actress Lindsay Lohan."
