Pretty neat application that just went public. In was in beta for several weeks and is a nice replacement for Microsoft Visio if you need to share and collaborate on a diagram with remote users.
Drinking Diet Pepsi just paid off. I just won a Rock Band 2 Bundle for the Wii from Pepsi.
We should be having some fun in 8-10 weeks.
Hey Digg,
1995 called and they want their stupid <frameset> tag back. This site now blocks that hack attempt at marketing. Thanks to Daring Fireball and Phil Nelson for the idea and plug-in to prevent the DiggBar from framing this site.
Here’s a good article on the whole matter.
If you use WordPress and would like the plug-in, click on Phil Nelson’s name above.
I replace the Sociable plug-in with the ShareThis plug-in from alexking.org. I like this one better and it takes up less room.
Google Calendar now supports an offline mode using Google Gears. Sweet. This has been a much wanted feature on my end. Look for the new Offlinebeta link in the upper right next to your user name. You can even make offline changes, and then sync them back when you go back online. This feature is going to be very useful since my Zimbra Desktop tryout is quickly becoming an utter failure for a number of reasons, but I will save that rant for later.
I just installed Twitter Tools so I will automatically tweet each time I post a blog. Let’s see how this plays out. If it’s good enough for David Gilmour it should be good enough for me.
As I mentioned before, I added the Sociable plug-in to my WordPress install to make it more ‘friendly’ to readers who make use of social bookmarking sites. After installing and configuring the plug-in, I noticed that it had not been updated to use some of the newer social sites like Facebook, Windows Live, and Google. Adding new sites is pretty straightforward, so I went ahead and added a few more sites to the plug-in. If you would like the updates, shoot me an e-mail. I will eventually send them over to the Sociable developers for addition into the plug-in. I am still working on adding a couple of more bookmarking sites to the list, and want to finish that up first.
If you are one of the poor saps who actually has enough free time in his (or her) day, to finally make it to Page 23 on their Google search results and actually find this site, Congratulations! You may now take pleasure in being able to quickly add a bookmark to your favorite social networking site by using on of the ‘Bookmark This’ icons below this post.
I decided to use the Sociable 2.0 WordPress plug-in from Peter Harkins mainly because it is very unobtrusive. Installation was painless and configuration was very straightforward.
