Is it me, or does it seem like jQuery has been picking up a lot of steam over the past 6 months or so?
It used to be that when I thought Javascript/AJAX library, I thought Prototype. Anymore, however, I think jQuery.

Jetty is one of the best Java Servlet containers out there. I still don’t use it for production deployment (Tomcat has better monitoring capabilities I think), but it’s all I use for development. I’ve also been using Maven 2 a lot lately (although [...]
Apologies for the long title.
This entry focuses on a recent issue when using Amazon’s S3 in combination with the popular JetS3t library (version 0.5.0). If that means absolutely nothing to you, you can stop reading this entry now:D.
Update: Amazon has reverted S3 back to its prior state, completely fixing this issue.
Update: new link added [...]
Looks like there’s going to be a book coming out dedicated to development on Amazon’s suite of web services – S3 (Simple Storage Service), EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud), SQS (Simple Queue Service), and FPS (Flexible Payments Service).
From the the O’Reilley site:
With this book, you’ll learn how companies can take advantage of Amazon Web Services (AWS) [...]
If you’re going to try to process credit card payments from your web site, you’ve got a lot of learning to do. On the one hand, there are the third party providers like PayPal, and there are the merchant account providers like Authorize.net. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, have [...]

It discusses different hosting strategies for high bandwidth serving, mentioning Amazon’s S3, SoftLayer, and a bunch of other solutions.
SendAlong uses S3 heavily, and I’ve been very happy with it so far. And the price is [...]
I have to admit, for single sign on in Java, CAS and Acegi go together about as well as peanut butter and jelly. Milk and cookies. Cake and ice cream…I should go grab some breakfast.
If there’s any interest, I may write up the steps I took in integrating CAS with Acegi.
Up next is making the [...]
I’ve got the basic CAS demo up and running, successfully doing single sign on between different webapps running on different servers. That link is actually an excellent guide to get you up and running quickly with CAS. Give it a shot if you’re just getting started.
Now on to Acegi integration…
I’ve decided to go ahead and try to get JA-SIG’s CAS configured alongside Acegi (Spring Security). I gave the Acegi docs and the CAS demo docs a couple of reads and it looks like it shouldn’t be too hard to get things set up properly. I think the thing that befuddles me most [...]
Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish an easy single sign on (SSO) setup?
A little background: SendAlong is built using a sort of spoke and hub architecture – there’s one main server (the hub) and several secondary servers (the spokes). It’s worth mentioning that the secondary servers are far away from [...]
