Another great result of Adobe AIR 1.0 and Adobe Flex 3. If you haven’t tried the new cross platform runtimes, I suggest you get to it. You are missing out on some really great stuff. (link)

Food is a way in which most of us actually survive, RSS feeds are yet another way in which the other 3% of us are able to live. Snackr is just that, a tasty little treat before the main course. It runs along the side or at the bottom of your desktop giving you a little taste of what awaits, it also gives you a preview of every article that is contained in your regular RSS feed reader. If you happen to see something scrolling by that interests you, but don’t have time to break out Net News Wire, click it. Snackr will stop and pop out the particular article that’s caught your eye. It even gives you the option to view the article on it’s respective web site.

I believe I can survive a bit longer with a little Snackr.(link)

With the recent onset of Adobe’s great AIR™ runtime and from the makers of the wonderful MooTools comes a long awaited Snippely. The AIR™ runtime lets developers use certain web technologies to build cross-platform desktop applications. MooTools is an Object-Oriented JavaScript framework that allows you to write cross-browser code. Together the developers of MooTools, Valerio Proietti and Tom Occhino have developed Snippely, which to me has been a prayer answered.

I had tons of “Snips” all over my hard drive, as I’ve been doing quite a bit of web development as of late. With Snippely, I’ve not only been able to clean house, but I have been able to add to my collection of “Snips” much more easily with a much higher organizational track. Let the pack rat resume, yeah!

Months ago, I found myself on one of my midnight searches for something just of this caliber. I for one am so thankful for it’s creation and I am looking forward to more from the developers of MooTools and Snippely. (link)
