Facebook: Behind the scene Release Engineering

I just came across this excellent article which gives the details behind the team working on releasing and deploying the latest code on the site of Facebook. 

Enjoy reading this. It is one of the very few reads which also inspires you to learn how to code, for the rest of us, may be we can borrow and idea or two from this excellent piece.

PS: I hate writing these short posts. Boy I need to get me a twitter account and I should need that fast.

Apple's stock overtakes the stock price of Google

For the first time in history the price of Apple's share exceeds the stock price of Google. Very sad that Steve Jobs is not alive to see this. What a perfect timing for this to happen. Yesterday only Larry Page called Steve Jobs act of destroying Android an act of show and today Apple's stock surpassed the value of Google's stock. Hope this is getting Larry's attention.

At the close of the market this is what it looks like:
GOOG 632.32 -2.83 (-0.45%)
AAPL         633.68    +9.37 (1.50%)

I was reading over the internet and this is what some pro Apple analyst have to say about the rise of Apple's share - "First stop, Google, next stop Priceline, final destination, Berkshire Hathaway."
