Well, the evergreat Google do offer us an abstraction on top of her BigTable database layer using her own API and we could only use these api if we have an GAE account. Obviously it's a little bit disappointing if we only want the BIG TOY in our pocket. But no more than one precious weekend, there is someone jumping only to give anybody free access to the database itself.

  This application is called BigTable As A Web Service, it offers an RESTful API of just using GET/PUT/DELETE methods to access the row and column of your database. Just like what we should do with URIs. I must say it's quite a great idea for saving small data if needed. And Google should offer this kind of API as a Webservice, Does she?

  The second app that i'm gonna talk about is SPRUNGE. This small application allows you to redirect the standard output scream directly to an webservice. Then yo could check the output with your web browser. What i'm thinking is using it to test my bash scripts, cause the syntax highlignting helps a lot for me to check out the errors. Just like this one.
