iTransmogrify! is a bookmarklet for iPhone which transforms embedded Flash content into direct links to natively supported formats. That means YouTube videos and MP3s can now be played from the iPhone???s Safari web browser with just a few clicks.

Zed Shaw: Rails Is A Ghetto

http://www.zedshaw.com/rants/rails_is_a_ghetto.html

Wow. Zed Shaw, the creator of Mongrel, goes on an absolute tear about the Rails community. Specifically, though, Kevin Clark of VaporSet, D.H.H., Michael Koziarski, Thought Works (the whole company) and others.

A must read, though in the past, Zed has sung the praises of Rails, such as this post. I wonder what’s really going on.
