John Resig has an interesting blog post on embedded JavaScript. It’s something I’ve been thinking about for a little while.
It would be awesome to see a PHP extension to embed SpiderMonkey into PHP. As far as I’m aware Facebook is the only one that’s taken a step in that direction with FBJS, which [...]

Facebook today released the code behind their application platform. What that entails:
