Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
curl https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

Visualizing Twitter Search Results:
Visualizing Twitter Search Results with Protovis and/or Graphviz is this easy:
$ easy_install twitter # See https://github.com/sixohsix/twitter and http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
$ git clone https://github.com/ptwobrussell/Mining-the-Social-Web.git
$ cd Mining-the-Social-Web/python_code
$ python introduction__retweet_visualization.py TeaParty # or whatever you want to search for
Your browser should pop open and display the results as a force directed graph, but also check your console for some useful output.
You can create an image file from the DOT language output with a command like the following:

Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

Variables

# Usage:
# PADDING=10 HTML_NORMAL=normal.html HTML_HOVER=hover.html ./webkit_sprite

if [ -z "$PADDING" ]
then
echo "You need to specify PADDING"
exit -1
