A VC view of the platform future
Naval Ravikant gives us a peek into what's hot, at least what VC's are seeing nowadays. Here's a summary of what they are seeing.
Predictions: most killer apps will emerge first via web-based GUIs (client side) unless they involve 3D graphics or heavy filesharing, in which case they're Win32 apps. Server-side killer apps will more easily emerge on Linux than on Windows. Some of the more interesting consumer-facing server apps are emerging just as quickly on Linux as on Windows (PVRs, online photo albums, music jukeboxes). Fear the Penguin, indeed.

itertools
Jeremy Hylton reports on the new itertools module in Python 2.3. I read the example and thought "this reminds me of streams from SICP". Then I went to the itertools docs and saw this:
This module implements a number of iterator building blocks inspired by constructs from the Haskell and SML programming languages. Each has been recast in a form suitable for Python.
Very cool.
