Browser Tab Grab Bag #1

In an—probably futile—attempt to reduce the total number of browser tabs I have open here's some items that have been on my "to write about" list:

Conference Presentation Judo

I had been talking with someone about presentation technique and they mentioned Mark-Jason Dominus's "Conference Presentation Judo" which I had discovered ages ago but then lost track of its location. Searches for terms related to perl and presentations seemed to only turn up Damian Conway's "Presentation Akido" when what I was wanting is the 2002 version of "Conference Presentation Judo" slides and "Conference Presentation Judo" video.

python, ctypes, and debugging symbols

I've been using ctypes for a project and was intrigued to see someone experimenting with using debugging symbols in an attempt to avoid some of the busy-work ctypes requires.

Max Headroom

'Nuff said. (Incidentally, having something approaching "real broadband" seems to be conducive to watching more online video, go figure.)

Product size visualisation

From the simple-but-nifty department here's a site that assists people to visualise items by comparing the size of the object to a common household object. The target market is apparently online shoppers.
