Monkinetic Weblog

This is the body. I'm tired of test posts, and i bet you are too!

yes, again. edited. again

Yes, each conversation document in Sid now has a working history. When you post to your site, Sid keeps a copy of the post. You can slide out the history drawer, load a previous post, edit it, and Sid will post the edits to the site, and save them back to the history as well.

Can be seen on the Sid page.

Sid now maintains a history of previous posts, and can load an old post into the form for editing. Next up is to re-jig the posting code to post an edited message as such.

ugh. DateFormatters are a pain in the butt.

For any webobjects-developers out there who are irc-inclined, I (for the moment) am running #wodev on irc.openprojects.net. Drop in if you want. Not sure how long it'll be up, as I haven't managed to get it registered yet.

sorry folks.

Mark Pilgrim describes his own, and my, gardening abilities:

My aptitude with plants can only be described in the negative. Take all the qualities of a good gardener, and negate them, and that's me. ... I have telepathic powers that can kill plants just by looking at them. I can burn out a lawn in a hurricane. I am the opposite of a "green thumb".

unfortunately i can't test Sid without posting a bunch of bogus messages to the site. I'll delete them later. Sorry for the email clutter.

Well, our DVD player finally showed up! Woohoo! (Darn that cheap ground shipping. -)) So I'm reading the manual, and watching True Lies.

Tim Berners-Lee at the 10th International Python Conference:

I've been working on Sid (obviously) for the last couple of days - I made some (finally) very nice improvements to the interface. In the last few versions, the settings for the conversation were done in a drawer. The drawer was almost as large as the document window, which was awkward and just not elegant.

testing Sid.

Woohoo! Sid now lets me italicize, bold, and underline, as well as link.

... of Sid's weblogs.com ping. One ping only Vasily.

please ignore

Ok, I took a little while to get Sid up and running again, and I've added a few enhancements. Sid now has the option to ping weblogs.com when posting to your Conversant weblog. Fun fun fun!
