we do all seem to be working on the same things.

I have a WebDAV client in my contrib, wdfs which relies on libxml. you can use 
it to access Dropbox and svn repositories an other stuff.

I love that Weather Underground is still offering a telnet
interface, but I wanted a bit more control over what I get
back. I was also trying to get familiar with the nice JSON
library bedo did[1], so I wrote up a Darksky client. Get an
API key of your own[2] and stick it in $home/lib/darksky,
and you can ask for whatever combination of detail or
summary data for current conditions, minute-by-minute,
hour-by-hour, or day-by-day data you like. It’ll also print
any weather alerts in effect for your location.

The precipitation graph is maybe a little silly (the unicode
block drawing stuff doesn’t provide great granularity).

In case it is of interest I have a json parser in the form of:

/n/sources/contrib/steve/libjson.tbz

there is also 

/n/sources/contrib/steve/json.cmds.tbz

Which is just jb - a beautifier ☺

Finally, jirafs - which gives filesystem access to a
Jira fault tracking database. It is a useful, but sadly
incomplete (i.e. readonly), and my jira needs have gone
(new job).

 In case it is of interest I have a json parser in the form of:

It would be trivial, if not very economical of computing resources, to
knock together any number of JSON applications for Plan 9 using Go's
libraries.  I know I'm restricting to Go any of the little programming
I need to do, JSON definitely fits Go like a glove, in my limited
experience.

Go makes it very easy for Plan 9 to deal with the plethora Web standards
and API's. Hopefully there will be Go ports for Plan 9/AMD64 and ARM.

Unfortunately not, my colleagues stopped using dropbox so I lost the
motivation to write a client.  Should be relatively straight forward
though, at least for a non-caching implementation.
