Myself and a few others are trying to get together a "Playing Around  
with Continuations" project.  As a start, we are collecting any  
resources we can find about them.

please reply and post them here.  I will start us off:

Is there a an online copy (video, I hope) of the continuations talk by
Jim Weirich and Chad Fowler from RubyConf05?

It was really quite good.

<laughs>  Probably.

I guess we figured there was safety in numbers, so... well... we  
could get headaches together.  :)

Thanks all for the terrific links.

Headaches for all!

I have a feeling that contiuations are an excellent solution for a
problem I haven't found yet.  Though I want to find this problem,
because I have a suspiscion that using continuations to solve it will
make me feel much cooler ;)
