News: GoDaddy allows executives to bid against own customers in auctions
I always thought godaddy seemed a bit sketchy, but I couldn’t put my finger on it. Glad I’m not a customer of theirs.

OAuth Core 1.0
Does this fully replace openid? I know google is on this bandwagon, as are, it seems, a lot of new web 2.0 companies.

My Saturday Night

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

You can see Susan and I caught in the light on the top left of the picture at the Jonathon Coulton show in New York. Thanks to snipeyhead for posting a whole set of images to flickr. This was during one of the songs where Kristen Shirts Ukulele Army was partaking, which means probably Creepy Doll.

It was truly an amazing show. The fact that we got Curl during the second encore was awesome. I’m definitely going to catch more of JoCo’s shows in the future.

Update: A complete set list, plus lots of videos of the show are on the JoCopedia.

Server-side JavaScript on the Java Virtual Machine (Google I/O Session Videos and Slides)
This is really good. While there is a blog post writup on this, watch the youtube recording instead, you’ll get a lot more out of it.
