TTMMHTM: Barcamps, datasets, social mentions and Python in JavaScript

Things that made me happy this morning:

• 10 steps to organising a barcamp has great info on exactly that
• the social mention API covers several social networks and allows you to search for keyterms
• I want the 8gb Lego minifig thumb drive
• A great peek into the process how classic computer games were built including Mario, Tetris and Pong
• A Stormtrooper singing in the rain
• A great list of open datasets
• Undop is a tool to stop you from wasting too much time on those sites that normally make you do that
• Skulpt is a Python parser in the browser – whoa!
• The Google Wave API roadmap is now available
• The YouTube Data API now supports captions
