Posted a much earlier version of this a while back, made some decent progress on it since then, but still a ways to go. Let me know what you think!

Since everyones already covered the Jetty side of it, I personally like Freemarker as a templating language.

http://freemarker.sourceforge.net/

It's pretty simple and straigtforward, its what I use instead of JSP.

Also, if you're doing web stuff, I HIGHLY recommend sitemesh.

http://www.sitemesh.org/

It's a really clean way of implementing layouts and everytime I use other languages like Python, I always try and find equivalents but am always disappointed.

For rich client apps, having a router is useful in my experience. I've not used backbone however. What makes you think it seems out of place?

It does, when you install an app it lists out which parts of your phone the application can access (phone, internet, location, etc)

I'm pretty sure that both Microsoft and Sony are on a 10 year plan with both of those systems, which means you won't hear anything about a PS4 for another couple years at least.

That said, this seems like a pretty smart move on Nintendo's part. They get to release hardware thats not the most expensive/fastest available, but still beats the current market, and gets to live at the top of the performance chart for at least a few years.

This seems like it's interesting but could really use some audio. This definitely comes off as a slide deck that someone used in a presentation and wasn't meant to just be read. Does anyone have a video version of this by any chance?

This is a side project I've been working on for a few months now, and I'd really appreciate your input on it. If you're an artist or designer or just like art, it'd be amazing if you requested a beta account. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions.

For a weird, distorting effect, press control to zoom all the way out and pan around. It seems that it tries to put you're view point "behind" the actual camera location. Not sure if it's a "bug" or not, but it looks neat nonetheless.

Does anyone have info on exactly what was done to make these? Is it just taking frames and stretching them vertically?

Ok... again, not trying to be combative but:

a) This still doesn't really answer my question.

b) Would it be illegal to put up a website and say that essentially no one can use it? Aside from some exceptions like discrimination, ToS's define how you can use a tool, which is exactly what they were doing. Is there some law stating that if you host a website, you must allow users to link to it in any way they like?
