Google Code University

Google Code University is a very nice effort to share information about latest tools in software development with everyone. Distributed systems design tutorial looks really interesting.

Xylitol

I have just discovered Xylitol. This is an amazing artificial sweetener that isn't controversial like the other sweeteners (hint, aspartame). In addition it is has almost half the calories of sugar and has a protective effect on teeth!

There are chewing gums available that mention using xylitol but those like Orbit's and other brands still have aspartame... so you need to confirm, if it is just xylitol or does it have aspartame.

Flossing

The importance of flossing regularly cannot be over-stated. It may even prevent heart disease and high blood pressure.
