Dew Dump – June 13-15, 2009

 

It’s a new vacation-mode link post format, the Dew Dump! It’s everything you would normally find in a Dew Drop post, without any categorization, formatting, etc. I’ll post a couple more Dew Dumps this week, and then I’ll be back with the standard Dew Drop posts on Monday, June 22nd.

(This post is dedicated to Keyvan, and all of our developer colleagues in Iran.)
