Python library for parsing bad HTML markup

I often struggle to extract information from crappy HTML. My default approach typically involves using grep or sed while issuing a steady stream of expletives. This library makes it easy to extricate useful content from a veritable soup of insidiously crafted HTML.

Linux and Tweeters and Blogs (Oh My!)

This article was written by Jim Kobylecky, who I had the great pleasure of meeting at Intel's TBB announcement party. As the conversation at the dinner table turned to blogging and Twitter, poor Jim had great difficulty keeping up. His honest admission of confusion and intelligent questions served as a reminder of how learning barriers make these technologies I take for granted inaccessible to certain audiences. It's a problem that definitely needs to be resolved.

A Mono developers guide to writing XAML by hand

GTK multithreading misconceptions

"One of the most frequently asked questions in the GTK mailing lists is 'How do I use threads with GTK'. Actually, the question is more often 'I’ve started writing a GTK program, and it doesn’t work. What the hell?' and it quickly emerges that they’re trying to do a multi-threaded GTK app, and doing it wrong."
