Python.
I’ve got some stuff to do that will be easier with python, so I’m wondering if it’s possible to package a python script up, and use it from within an AppleScript, without having to have it in the path.
It may not be, since AppleScript’s
do shell script "pwd"
returns "/", indicating it is running at the root directory.
Well, back to pipes and awk/sed.
(Actually, I think I’d just used awk & sed inside the python script).

New Scientist News - Baby comes with brain repair kit for mum
Excellent. Does it fix ‘Mummy Mind’, or the tendency of new mothers to make inane comments?

SimpleBits | Electronic Mail is Not For Everyone
Funny post over at SimpleBits.
But the thing I like is the effect when you hover over the commenter links: the site appears. Cool!
(Now I just need to figure out how to implement this!)

WackGet - A minimalist download manager for Windows based on wget
Hmm. Should be easier to write one of these for Mac.
- Can download all links in a page that point to files that might be interesting (.zip, .sit, .mp3, .aac, .mov, etc).
- Can just download all links within the selection.
Actually, writing a Service to do this would be great.
