Window Shake Effect via Core Animation
Cocoa Is My Girlfriend: “We decided to venture out and try to create some really concise examples of effects you might find used in Leopard. And while these effects may not be done with Core Animation where they are found in the OS, we’ve set out to duplicate them in Core Animation regardless. Our first challenge? Shaking a login window.”

KSExtensibleManagedObject
Mike Abdullah (of Karelia Software) releases KSExtensibleManagedObject, which extends Core Data: “On the surface KSExtensibleManagedObject operates just like a normal managed object. But, if you call -valueForKey: or -setValue:forKey: it will happily return/store the value, rather than raise an exception as NSManagedObject would... Whenever a key is accessed that the model does not natively handle, KSExtensibleManagedObject steps in to convert and store it as raw data.”
