FreeNAS is a Free Network Attached Storage (NAS) server that will turn an old PC into a NAS server complete with a web based administration console. FreeNAS is a scaled down FreeBSD distribution and supports Samba, FTP, NFS protocols, and Software RAID (0,1,5). FreeNAS takes less than 16MB once installed on Compact Flash, hard drive or USB key. If you ever want to play around with the Free Network Attached Storage server this is your chance because most people have access to an old PC that they aren’t using much anymore; consider this a chance to make use of it and probably learn something in the process.
How to Use script.aculo.us Effect Queues
Rails webdevelopment blog has a great tutorial that explains how to use the new Effect.Queues in the popular script.aculo.us JavaScript library. Effect queues allows you to queue up multiple effects on a DOM node or group of DOM nodes. This is one of the most handy JavaScript scripts out there and if you haven’t tried it you definitely should check it out.
After reading this tutorial it should be pretty clear to you the value of it as well as the methods that you employ to make use of it. I’m trying to feature more Rails related posts here on Digital Media Minute just because of the amount of interest that people are showing the comments.
