Codase: Source Code Search Engine

“Codase is the leading source code search company with advanced source code understanding and xml index/search technologies. Rather than treating code as text, Codase understands programming languages, and treats code as code, the way it’s supposed to be. This unique and syntax-aware approach provides the most accurate and detailed search results with fine granularity levels of controls. With Codase, one can search functions, classes, strings, constants, macros, comments and other programming language constructs.”

Accessiblity for the Masses

“I was recently reminded while working on our panel for SXSW that accessibility isn’t just about screen readers, markup guidelines, or alt tags. Unfortunately, that’s about as far as most of us ever get with accessibility. It’s good that most of us are making an effort, but it’s time to start consistently thinking bigger.”

The asynchronous conversation

“An experimental interview with Maish R. Nichani of elearningpost: …Nichani has been blogging — well, it seems like forever. His blog, elearningpost, is always full of fascinating and thought-provoking links. But Maish himself has always been a bit of a mystery. So I asked Maish if he would be up for a little ‘experiment in conversation.’ Luckily he said yes! …The idea behind this ‘experiment’ is to do an asynchronous interview with Maish, and open the conversation up to you, the Communication Nation community.”
