  • Javascript graphing library - I think the result needs polish, but there are a lot of good resources on the page for treemap graphing algorithms.
  • In R, you can make a Treemap visualization in 4 lines of code.

  • The master hoard of locale data.
  • Python wrapper for the ICU i18n library. Documentation is a bit scant.
  • ICU, by IBM, seems to be THE thing to use for serious i18n. There are Python bindings for it, but they're not very well documented.

  • Useful web-based tool ("DNS Health Check"), very gentle display of results. They also have ping/traceroute tools and a general web page test.
  • Smart fellows.

  • Another free icon set, similar to Famfamfam.
  • Perl module Text-Unaccent on CPAN. For when you need to normalize éêëè… to e, and so forth.
  • Really excellent. Five lectures, the first one being purely a history of computing.
