Some contributions of mine that I hope are useful to others:
  • BibBase.org: The easiest way to maintain your publications page. See example below.
  • STEP3D.com: The simplest, web-based viewer for STEP files (CAD).
  • aaai_script.sh: a script to generate the latex-source package required by AAAI Press when submitting camera-ready versions for conference proceedings. Usage: aaai_script.sh [TEXFILE]
