<p><strong><a href="http://blog.freebase.com/2008/11/07/introducing-acre/">Introducing Acre</a></strong></p> I’m losing track of all the server-side JavaScript hosted web application platforms now. Here’s the Freebase contribution to the genre, complete with IDE, templating language and strong integration with Freebase itself. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/acre">acre</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/freebase">freebase</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/javascript">javascript</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/serversidejavascript">serversidejavascript</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://hackday.skud.user.dev.freebaseapps.com/">Freebase Hack Day</a></strong></p> I’m finding Freebase increasingly interesting at the moment, and their public hack day on the 8th November in San Francisco looks like it could be a lot of fun. They’ll be previewing Acre, a new server-side JavaScript application platform targeted at building Freebase powered applications. Hit “view source” at the bottom of the hack day site to see what an Acre app looks like. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/acre">acre</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/events">events</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/freebase">freebase</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/hackday">hackday</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/javascript">javascript</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/san-francisco">san-francisco</a></p>
