YoxView – jQuery Photogallery
03 years ago
A really nice SEO friendly sleek and simple jQuery image gallery script. Works best on images with similar dimensions but also deals with the transitions between images of different images stylishly. Can also process picasa and flickr photosets out of the box

A Simple News System For Basic Websites
03 years ago
This is a very simple news system with comment support which is ideal for adding simple blog/news system functionality to any website needing that kind of system. In the past I'd usually use wordpress as a pre-built solution for adding this kind of content to a site and although you get a lot of extra benefits by using wordpress (as a result of its plugin system) there can be a lot of issues with tweaking the wordpress theme to suite the site. The method of embedding this system is so simple that it can be used easily within any site template and as such it's perfect for quickly adding blogging or news system style functionality to previously static sites or E-Commerce systems where an attempt at tying in wordpress could be very messy

AeroSQL an alternative to phpMyAdmin
03 years ago
Another really useful item from Oleg Burlaca. AreoSQL is a free web based database management solution which, given some development could be a decent replacement for the awful phpMyAdmin. I say awful, phpMyAdmin is in a lot of ways actually a pretty good tool, however it's also notorious for going wrong when you least expect it and, to be honest needs a throrough interface overhaul. AreoSQL doesn't provide anything like the level of functionality that phpMyAdmin does (yet) BUT the interface is better, especially for people who like to use a componentised view of databases as a lot desktop app's provide. Overall I personally don't think it's going to beat other projects like Chive ( chive-project.com ) to being an immediate successor to phpMyAdmin but it's certainly an alternative to be considered...
