A couple of great little web sites there. It id interesting how Dropbox etc are enabling a more decentralised internet.

yeah he has done an amazing job.

Nice, I think backbone and bootstrap type products are going to make builders like this more practical and common.

thanks for checking it out!

I'm currently working on a project to combine it with pivot.js. should make it a pretty good js only reporting solution

expected a Perl script

You know will go "missing" once you have put it back together and seen the document.

love it, I think this has great potential in SMB arena, I know several companies using that combination of services individually.

We started a new project a year or two ago and evaluated using Perl,Python Ruby and the main factor in the reason to use Perl was that the libraries for our particular usage cases where better in Perl than the others at that time. For LDAP and SNMP in particular there exists Pure Perl Libraries that are very mature, at the time similar libraries for Ruby and Python where just wrappers around C classes and not as mature (Might be different now).

Java might have been a good choice in this regard as well but our team was used to using Dynamic languages.

I would suggest that anyone looking at a particular language should consider what they want to achieve and then investigate the existing libraries etc to complete that task.

Having committed to using Perl we have had no regrets things like Moose and roles IMHO put it on par with Languages like Python and Ruby. Edit: Formatting

If you are a Perl user you can do curl -s random-inc5000.herokuapp.com | perl -MJSON -e 'print to_json(from_json(<>),{pretty=>1})'

Just thought I'd try it out of interest. :-)

Similarly, with Python:

  curl -s http://random-inc5000.herokuapp.com/ | python -m simplejson.tool

I've got the last bit aliased as `json` though.

Looks like a good segway to my startup www.decideall.com (Honestly I have no connection to the OP!). It is an attempt to make Decision Making more rational.
