A few items from the meeting last night:

   - Celestia, "the free space simulation that lets you explore our
     universe in three dimensions", can be found at
     http://www.shatters.net/celestia/.  It's quite fun.

   - Selenium, a JavaScript QA tool for testing web applications in
     Firefox, can be found at http://selenium.thoughtworks.com/

   - Peter Seebach's Infrequently Asked Questions in comp.lang.c, lives
     at http://www.plethora.net/~seebs/faqs/c-iaq.html.  I particularly
     enjoy the Arrays and Pointers section; the entire FAQ is probably
     best enjoyed after reading the comp.lang.c FAQ, which is an
     excellent reference.

   - ddclient, a Linux Dynamic DNS client, can be found at
     http://ddclient.sf.net.  I use it with the dyndns.com service,
     although there are many others it is compatible with.
