Raphaël—JavaScript Library

Awesome-looking JavaScript vector library, rendering to SVG/VML. FF 3+, Safari 3+, IE 6+. Make sure to play with the demos; they rock.

Global is the new private

Comparison of JavaScript frameworks (and some library stuff like GMaps) showing the globals and monkeypatches each framework has. Don't miss the “collision matrix” which shows, at a glance, which frameworks will compete with which others.

AJAX Libraries API - Google Code

Load popular JavaScript libraries off Google's servers - this'll make caching and speed issues irrelevant. Still, I'm not sure exactly how I feel about 'google.load(“jquery”)' — seems brittle.

Mark Finkle’s Weblog » Hello JS-CTYPES, Goodbye Binary Components

This is a pretty big deal: I've been using ctypes in Python for quite some time, and I can attest to how much better it is than writting C/C++ wrappers. XPCOM in particular is a total PITA, so js-ctypes should mean a bunch of new, awesome Mozilla plugins.
