- The TLS Report, a recently started website, is keeping track of how major sites have implemented TLS (Transport Layer Security, formerly SSL). Check the first surprising results of the best and worst here.
- Presentation from Jason Sobel, the manager of infrastructure engineering at Facebook, on how Facebook implements the storage of about 6.5B images (profile pics, regular photos) in 4 or 5 sizes, totalling about 30B files, 540TB and serving 475K images per second!

The search engines are now supposed to "see" the Flash application just as the user does. Well, that's one reason less to not use Flash ;-) Google is also improving its Flash indexing by using this new searchable SWF library.
The best articles and links to interesting posts for technical team leaders building sophisticated websites, applications and mobile apps. Think about: software architecture, hardware architecture, design, programming, frameworks, scalability, performance, quality assurance, security, resolving issues, fixing bugs and Android.
