TiddlyWiki macros and Start.com gadgets
Did anyone make note of the date when JavaScript became cool instead of a pain-in-the-ass? Two new (similar) examples: TiddlyWiki Macros and Start.com Gadgets. In both cases JavaScript can be used to create plugins for a website. The Start.com version is neat in that your plugins are digesting and displaying RSS (aka any damn datasource you want). Admittedly, I don’t know for sure that you can’t do that in TiddlyWiki, but I didn’t see a mention of it. Of course, TiddlyWiki itself is an insanely cool application written completely out of javascript.
