- A Practical Guide to Varnish -- Varnish is the http accelerator used by the discerning devops.
- Ferrofluid Sculptures (New Scientist) -- hypnotic video of an iron-based fluid that is moulded by magnetic fields, which I include for no good reason than it is pretty pretty science. (via Courtney Johnston)
- Twisted Highscores List -- clever leaderboard for tickets, reviews, commits, and fixes. A fun retro presentation of the information, rather than a determined effort to jolly up the grim task of software development by spraying on a thin coat of gamejuice. (via Jacob Kaplan-Moss)
- Beauty of Maps (YouTube) -- BBC's "Beauty of Maps" tv show is available in full on YouTube. Aspects of visualization and design here, as well as practical cartography. (via Flowing Data)
