Summary: A collection of interesting items for the week of April 8, 2013.

* [MongoDB for Developers](https://education.10gen.com/courses/10gen/M101P/2013_April/about) -- A free MOOC offering an introduction to [MongoDB](http://www.mongodb.org/) using Python. [10gen](http://www.10gen.com/about), the company behind MongoDB, hosts the course on the [EdX platform](http://edx.org/). The course has great pacing and doesn't take much time throughout the week to complete.
* [Starlogs](http://http://starlogs.net) -- This website converts GitHub commit messages into scrolling text à la the introduction to each Star Wars movie. For instance, you may enjoy [Django's Starlogs](http://starlogs.net/#django/django).
* [Shower Presentation Engine](https://github.com/shower/shower/) -- An HTML presentation/slideshow engine similar to [reveal.js](http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/). The project's GitHub page offers [numerous examples](https://github.com/shower/shower/#usage-examples).
