Off on holiday – but first, a RippleRap update!

November 22, 2007 – 6:43 pm

At this time tomorrow I’ll be on a plane, bound for Romania. This is deeply exciting. I haven’t been on holiday for more than a week for ages, and I’m looking forward to spending two weeks wandering around some strange places in Eastern Europe. I’ll be dropping into Bucharest, Istanbul, Warsaw and Moscow before jetting […]

The shocking badness of WordPress.com (and what they should do about it)

November 6, 2007 – 7:30 pm

I host my blog on WordPress.com. You’re reading it. It’s free, so I guess I should be thankful. But it’s crap. Maybe it’s my elevated opinions about how much you should get for free these days, and maybe I am wildly cavalier about security, but WordPress.com (as opposed to the much-loved open source project, WordPress, […]

Never mind the Facebook – Open Social and the future of social networks

November 2, 2007 – 4:11 pm

The thing about Facebook, for all its yummy and addictive gloriousness, is that it’s been around a while. This is worrying. Friendster, MySpace have both experienced a huge and short-lived boom period, followed by customers migrating to the next, best and shiny thing. Given that Bebo has been the #1 social network in the UK […]

TiddlyBlogger with tags

November 1, 2007 – 11:38 pm

Apprehensively, I’m hitting “publish to blog” having made some changes to the boycook’s TiddlyBlogger… In theory, there should be some tags attached to this post. [Edit:] Alrighty, so that worked. I’ve made a few changes – get hold of the BlogPlugin and BlogSetup tiddlers here: http://jayfresh.tiddlyspot.com/#BlogSetup%20BlogPlugin The BlogPlugin now uses a custom view template for […]

Stuck on a train? Twitter to the rescue!

October 22, 2007 – 9:07 am

It was a dark weekend for English sport. However, I did discover a new use for Twitter. Missing the second half of the Brazillian Grand Prix to get on a train from Leeds back to London, and with Hamilton scrabbling his way up the ranks, I wasn’t relishing the idea of not knowing what was […]

TiddlyChatter – designing the user experience

October 19, 2007 – 6:31 pm

After releasing TiddlyChatter v0.6 on TiddlySpot, I’m taking a step back and focussing on what I can do to make TiddlyChatter as easy to understand and use as possible. It’s taken me two weeks of living in the thick of it to get to a point where I can clearly articulate what the point of […]

TiddlyChatter v0.6 – with TiddlySpot!

October 16, 2007 – 8:50 pm

This is a strange release, because most of the work has been to get TiddlyChatter to play nicely with TiddlySpot and improvements in the documentation based on actually trying to use it… The idea with this release is that you can go to http://tiddlychatter.tiddlyspot.com and that will guide you through the process of installing the […]

TiddlyChatter v0.5

October 9, 2007 – 6:42 pm

I’m pleased to announce the first “usable” release of TiddlyChatter, a project I’ve written about before here and here. You can find an example TiddlyWiki loaded up with TiddlyChatter (hit right-click to save) here. (And another with different colours for testing on one machine) The instructions are all in there. I’ve thought hard about the […]
