Spent last night tuning the site to improve performance over yesterday. As we speak we are pushing 160,000+ page views per hour on just the http://www.augusta.com/masters/leaderboard page. Our traffic peaks near the end of the round.

Meetings with no agenda is asking people to go for a ride without telling where you are going. Offering candy does help entice victims.

GDataCopier provides a complete set command line utilities (the syntax of which largely resembles scp) that allow users to
- gls - list documents on the Google document system
- gcp - export and import documents on the Google document system
- gmkdir - make directories on the Google docs system
- grm - remove documents and folders on the Google docs system
- gmv - move documents in and out of folder on the Google docs system
I found gdatacopier again. Very useful tool to download/backup your Google Docs. Of course, I have a Google account for work and an account for home. This tool provides command line access to download all documents from both accounts to store and search locally.
I will now be setting this up as an automated process to backup my documents locally.

At the core, the development model is greatly inspired by existing models out there. The central repo holds two main branches with an infinite lifetime: master develop
The master branch at origin should be familiar to every Git user. Parallel to the master branch, another branch exists called develop.
We consider origin/master to be the main branch where the source code of HEAD always reflects a production-ready state.
I can't wait to get my hands on this and start playing with it. Looks like this brings together a number of technologies such as Node.js, HTML5, Xcode and Javascript into a single application development framework. The introduction videos are impressive especially when Matt Taylor shows the deployment of a demo app to the cloud and to a native mobile device.
