Whatever Happened to _Why?
If I had to point to the one singular reason I moved over from Java and PHP to Ruby a few years back... Alright, I have to admit that it'd probably be Rails, which at the time had just turned 1.0 and was, well, a pretty amazing seachange for me. But it was only when I read _Why the Lucky Stiff's "Poignant Guide to Ruby" that I really fell in love with the language, its community, and really felt like there was something other than "just another programming language" here.

Within weeks of publishing Mercurial: The Definitive Guide, O'Reilly has released their treatment of another highly popular distributed version control system.

Sammy - A jQuery Web Framework
jQuery has been my JavaScript library of choice for quite some time. It's definitely one of the easiest ways to abstract away the difficulties of working with lower-level browser-dependant JavaScript when building web-based applications. However, jQuery has its limitations; it isn't really intended to stand in for a framework for building larger interaction-heavy web apps. It simply doesn't dictate how you should structure your applications or deal with higher-level concepts such as request routing.
If you're a jQuery fan and you're looking for a way to help organize development of a more robust JavaScript-heavy application (in the vein of perhaps GMail or Apple's MobileMe), you might want to take a look at Sammy, a new lightweight JavaScript framework, created by developer Aaron Quint as a layer to sit on top of jQuery. - Design
