Checking out Dev Tools for work and came across the Atlassian suite. Its big bags of deadly. I can’t begin to describe how much cooler it is than the stuff I have to work with.
Its clean, simple, cheap, powerful, fully integrated with all of its own products (SCM, issue tracking, code review, continuous integration, agile planning, collaboration and wiki) AND it can integrate with a Google Apps domain.
If I was running a company, particularly a startup on a budget, this would win hands down.
So. Very. Cool.

This is well cool. The BFI (British Film Institute) have managed to restore and capture most of the oldest version of Alice in Wonderland ever made.
First shown in 1903 it currently stands at a whacking 107 years old! Sadly some of it was lost, leaving 8 of the original 12 minutes of footage still extant and watchable. Reading up on it it seems that the film was made some 8 years after the birth of cinema (which is pretty cool..) and because of the abnormal length of the reel in both time and physical dimensions (a grand total of 800 feet of film) it was regularly shown in parts rather than all together. Lots more info available at the BFI homepage
Imagine what they could have done if they’d had today’s monstrous 2-3 hour long efforts
And here she is in all her centenary glory!!
