monkinetic the blog

Some of you may have noticed links around here starting to point to a new domain: www.monkinetic.com. Well, today I finally pushed the Big Red Button that directs all traffic from redmonk.net over to monkinetic.com. In some ways this is a bittersweet moment for me - I still feel a close personal connection to the redmonk moniker (though this site fell from first place in the google war long ago). I first started using ‘monkinetic’ as the blog title back when I was trying to make redmonk.net into a business site (ca. 2003 I think) and the name stuck. I’ve grown to love it, and I’m glad to finally be giving it it’s own domain!

This Javascript Tools bundle for Textmate totally saved my sanity while debugging a recent javascript bug. Best feature: it can run a selected section of Javascript code in Textmate’s webkit-based Preview window.

Remember when blogs were more casual and conversational? Before a posts purpose was to grab search engine clicks or to promise 99 Answers to Your Problem That Were Telling You Youre Having. Yeah. Id like to get back to that here. – Dan Cederholm
