Javascript Command Line Options for Node.js

I have recently been playing with node.js. If you haven’t read about it yet, I recommend you do and that you try it out. I wrote a small app using it and hopefully I’ll get around to writing some articles about that application. In the meantime, I’m releasing a library I wrote for parsing command line options in javascript. This library will work with node.js.

The repository at bitbucket contains examples, so I’m not going to write much about the library here except to say to go here and get it! Let me know if you find it useful and post any bugs you find to the issue tracker.

Browser Statistics

Update: I’ve included graphs for the year since I made this post. You can view them here.

This is nothing more than a public service announcement. All web developers are interested in browser statistics. Unfortunately, most of the places we get our statistics from are heavily biased toward developers like ourselves.

My wife runs a business that has virtually no geek appeal. I’d link to her site, but that’d bias the stats. It’s not a secret, and is linked to elsewhere on this blog. So, take what you want from the following graphs.

The top half is the percentages for all browsers (that visit her site) and the bottom is for Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. Statistics for this blog are significantly different that those stats. If you’d like any other info, don’t be shy.
