Because of my extended weekend in Berlin and at the seaside I did not put together my Link Digest last week, that’s the reason to look back to my top bookmarks of the last two weeks now.

Typography

• The Golden Ratio Typography Calculator helps you to improve your website’s typography by entering your used font size, line-height, width, or characters per line (CPL). The math behind that tool is explained in The Ultimate Guide to Readable Web Typography.
• Thinking with Type: Type is the foundation of print and web design. Everything you need to know about thinking with type, you will find here. This richly detailed update to the classic text belongs on the shelf of every designer, writer, editor, publisher, and client. (Jefferey Zeldman)

Data

• Data Journalism Handbook: This collaborative book coordinated by the European Journalism Centre and the Open Knowledge Foundation aims to answer questions like: Where can I find data? How can I request data? What tools can I use? How can I find stories in data? How can I make data journalism sustainable? Provided under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license you can read it for free as an early beta release, and if you want you may give feedback.
• Linked Data FAQ: Structured Dynamic put together a document with some of the more prominent enterprise questions and answers regarding linked data. Linked data is the first practical expression of the semantic Web, useful and doable today, and applicable to all forms of data.

Javascript

• Addy Osmani worte an article about JavaScript Style Guides And Beautifiers because “Following a consistent style guide both helps enforce this concept and improves the overall quality of the code we write. This facilitates other developers stepping in to assist with maintenance more easily and can certainly save time in the long haul. Readable source code is arguably easier for us to understand as well. It’s easier to browse, locate and fix bugs in and more easy to optimize. It can also give us a clearer picture of how the code fits into a larger body of work.”
