The site itself contains demos, sample code, and documentation for the script.aculo.us product. This product depends on a supporting library that’s called Prototype. The library isn’t a prototype, that’s what it is called. Named by geeks, for geeks, I guess.
• Amazon Web Services UK Blog.
• The Singularity – Microsoft Research builds a new operating system from the ground up. Be sure to read the Research Report.
• Symphony – PHP Web Application Framework.
