LEEDuser, still in its free beta release, is already proving to be a tremendous resource. The Credit Browser, with its increasingly deep pool of information, is much more than just handy — and Strategies section is starting to reveal its potential value as well.

A new article titled Upgrade to LEED 2009? How to Choose for Your Project just went up; it's a demystification grand slam. Projects registered for LEED certification prior to June 26 can upgrade to the appropriate LEED 2009 program for free until the end of the year — but is it worth it? There are a bunch of benefits to switching, but whether or not it works to a project's benefit is entirely case by case. Just when it all couldn't get any more crazy-making, along comes something like this to shine a light right where you need it.
