• 3.1.08 MoodBlast now hearts Pownce posted in Geekery

  That’s right, we finally got Pownce support. I’ve also fixed the “Start Hidden” feature. The most significant change is actually a complete rewrite of the preference storage code. The new version will make every attempt to convert your previous preferences, but you may end up re-entering them if it fails. I apologize for any inconvenience, but it should completely eradicate the Applescript/file access problems of yesteryear. Have at it.

• 11.7.07 Safari (my new crush) posted in Web Design, Geekery

  Besides being enamored with all things Leopard, I’ve developed an intense and burning love for Safari. With a couple of exceptional plugins, it’s become my general web browser of choice. The powerhouse that is Firefox+addons may still be hard to leave behind for webdev, but for beauty, ease of use and overall integration (and awesome applescripting), Safari is definitely my new top choice…

• 9.20.07 MoodBlast goes Ninja (2.25) posted in Geekery

  I was waiting for a couple of things to come through, but just couldn’t wait to get this version out. Those other things will be worth the wait, I think. For right now, MoodBlast now has the option to de-colorize the menubar item, hide it, enable a dock item, or go completely ninja, leaving behind just you and your hotkey. One of the big things coming up is a feed from Accuweather. It will be a big improvement in options and capabilities, and Accuweather was generous enough to provide us with a full international feed. They’re even setting up an international search feed so that we can continue to offer plain text city searches with the weather feature. Great folk. Sure beats the Weather Channel. That’s next week, so enjoy the new release for now. Just don’t forget your hotkey after you get all crazy with Ninja Mode!

• 9.13.07 MoodBlast 2.23 (I was supposed to be working) posted in Geekery

  Nobody tell Christy because I was supposed to be working this afternoon. I got fed up with having a bad day, though, and decided to have fun instead. I’ll make up for it tonight. Or maybe I’m just saying that in case the rest of my office is reading this. Anyway, MoodBlast 2.23 is out. It rocks a little, I think…

• 9.12.07 Pownce API Coming Soon? posted in Geekery

  I was a little slow in noticing this, and it was posted nearly a month ago, but according to Shawn Allen, Pownce is still on track for a September release of their API. This would mean new (and better) clients… ones that can actually notify you of messages. And inclusion in MoodBlast, of course. Speaking of…

• 6.21.07 My Personal iGTD posted in Geekery

  I get a lot of searches coming in related to iGTD. So, inspired by a recent article on 43 Folders, I decided to offer a few of my own tricks for working with what I consider to be one of the best GTD apps for the mac.

• 6.5.07 Fine Tuned 404 posted in Web Design

  As part of the Circle Six redesign, I culled the portfolio and in the process broke just about every link that Google had indexed. A new sitemap and some redirect pages are taking care of SEO, but in the interim, a lot of visitors are getting 404 pages. So I borrowed a tip from the blog and added a suggest feature to the C6 404 page…

• 6.4.07 Moving Wordpress 2 posted in Web Design, Geekery

  Here’s round 2 of my Wordpress Move script from yesterday. It now figures out if your home address is different from your base url and if so, it strips the path off of the home address and appends it to the new base url to create a new home address. This makes the assumption that both your url and home are on the same domain. I’d be interested to know if anyone finds other uses for this or if there are any feature requests. If not, it’s serving my purposes and probably won’t go any further, but you never know.

• 5.14.07 iGTD Review: 1.4 posted in Geekery

  Here’s the greatest thing about the new release of iGTD: Way fewer “hacks” are necessary to make it conform to a more GTD-like workflow. It’s got a revamped interface with much more fluid ways of handling things like “maybe” tasks and “wait for” tasks, plus it adds handling for next actions and start dates. And you thought it was great to start with! Check out the list of new features and go ahead and download it to try out. It’s still donationware, and according to the author, always will be. I went ahead and made a second donation on account of this being such an extensive upgrade that if it were a commercial application, I would have charged my users for it ;).

• 4.23.07 CSSEdit 2.5 posted in Web Design

  As a beta tester for CSSEdit 2.5, I can tell you that the new features are awesome and SO many little bugs have been fixed. First, the much talked about tabs were added. Then we got the ability to see what styles in the sheet were affecting a selector in X-Ray. Then we could click the style and jump right to it in the stylesheet. Faster image updates and less choking on Javascript in the previews. And most importantly (to me), command-return now functions as expected in all situations! Read more about it at the MacRabbit site.
