Remote IDE
I first came across UltraEdit as a tool to edit UNIX files on Windows, instead of messing around with telnet and vi: It was a fine text editor with an integrated ftp client that let you easily open, edit and save files to a Unix machine from the comfort of your desktop.
BVRDE is much more ambitious than that: it tries to be a “Remote IDE” for editing, compiling and debugging Unix projects from a Windows machine, transfering files with ftp and talking to make and gdb through telnet behind the scenes. Like a lot of cool editing environments recently, it uses Scintilla.
Does Movable Type let you do pages in UTF-8? That would be cool, and let me mix languages freely.
Here’s some text in a bunch of characters:
שלום Hello Hârn
Hmm. This looks good, and the Hebrew (and high-ascii) roundtrips.
It kills all the old Hebrew, though (that was iso-8859-8-i). But it’s the way of the future!
and the RSS feeds…?

Joe A.I.M.
Micah Wright’s Joe A.I.M. is a (rejected) proposal for a comic series about an average guy who finds himself working for Advanced Idea Mechanics, the old Marvel secret terrorist organization where the members dress up as bee-keepers, build killer robots, and are lead by a floating head called MODOK. The description (linked above) includes a hilarious backgrounder on the organization.
