Hi everyone! Just few days ago a new cool plugin for Firefox has been presented. His name is ubiquity. Remember that name, becouse it’s very helpfull and powerfull tool. It’s still in early version (0.1) but you can find out yourself how usefull it can be even right now. Here you can find a link to Mozilla Labs where it was introduced and below you can watch a short video containing simple scenario of how to use it. I want tell you anything more. Watch it, install it and enjoy it!

Yesterday on this site a new interesting cheatsheet for cake was published. It contains a set of cake build-in validation rules with some short examples of how to use it. It’s useful, looks nice and it should hang near every CakePHP developers desk!

Last time I found interesting tool called Balsamiq Mockups. It is a Flash based mock-up toolset for rapid prototyping UI designs. I’ve been using many different applications for gui prototyping but this one is really cool and useful. It is simple, powerful and flexible, this is exactly what gui prototyping tools should be. Of course there are many more complex and “enterprise” (my favorite word) applications, like Axure - which I’m still using or very excting Adobe Thermo. But again, sometimes we need someting very simple and handy like Balsamiq Mochups. So go to their web site or try it now here. There are also demonstration sreencast.

“Aurora is a concept video presenting one possible future user experience for the Web, created by Adaptive Path as part of the Mozilla Labs concept browser series. Aurora explores new ways people could interact with the Web in the future based on projected technological trends and real-world scenarios.” This is really interesting, maybe nearly future, something better than milions microbliging sites on other hand still the same or similar.
