Memorization comes from repetition. If I've been working on the same framework for 3 years, I just naturally memorize what I need. Memorizing stuff definitely helps you keep your context flow too.
You can be a very good developer without memorizing a specific framework though.

I was sad to read about Project Wonderful closing. Is there still room for decent advertising on the net?

Smart and Gets Things Done is a pretty great book. Definitely worth the quick read if you're looking for a job programming.

It's been abused a lot in the startup community (hacker news has had multiple articles about it). Basically it makes you feel wide awake/fully rested, but you still need sleep to restore your cognitive function.
So maybe you hit the point where you've slept 10 hours in a week, you feel great but the decisions you're making are still those of someone desperately in need of sleep.
