To me a "Web Book" should take advantage of some HTML5 features in order to get some of the benefits of the richer Kindle/iBooks experience: * Offline in-browser reading using AppCache * Highlighting, bookmarks, notes, last place read using

I'm in the middle of reading "Tubes" by Andrew Blum, which is the story of how the Internet was physically built. MAE-East, PAIX, Ashburn, and all that. The Kindle version is $1.99 right now. I paid $9.99 for it last week. http://www.amazo

I've always wondered why they initially chose camelCase and not dashes. I like keeping camelCase for JS only. CSS uses dashes (border-top). LESS uses dashes in its example documentation.

Can you describe how you set Akamai to host the site? I'm familiar with using S3 to host a static site, and using a CDN to host assets, but it's not clear to me how a CDN can be set to host a full static site. Did contribute.barackobama.com

It's rather clear through their actions and words that the organizers didn't have the goal of diversity when choosing the speakers. That was their mistake. No, that doesn't make them sexist pigs. But that's a pretty serious oversight to mak
