A couple of days ago I came across this terrifying presentation from John Graham-Cumming. Although the topics covered weren’t entirely new to me, put together in one presentation, had an impact. I came to wonder if and how would the major web 2.0 sites work, if javascript was out of the picture. I decided to [...]

Facebook tremors today
Posted in Technology, tagged facebook, problems on September 7, 2009 |
I thought it was just me but a search (employing Facebook search) reavealed that this is a widespread issue. See the picture. I haven’t seen any announcement anywhere. Or a post in one of the tech blogs. Anyone?
Facebook Feeds
Posted in HowTo, tagged facebook, feeds, RSS on August 17, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I added a Lifestreaming plugin to my blog recently and as I was entering the feed urls of the various Web 2.0 sites I am participating, I stumbled upon the Facebook problem. Since its last change, the old mini-feed feed has disappeared, so one has to reassemble it by its components. I was particularly interested [...]

I am ‘locked’ up today in my mother’s house, which, quite unsurprisingly, does not have internet access. One option is to steal my way to the net through a neighbors’ open wifi. Not without some odd problems though: I can open my Gmail in https, send and receive mail as normal, I can browse pages [...]

Image via Wikipedia A basic one at least. With the advent of the second gen twitter clients, which support, among other things, groups, users are confronted with higher barriers to entry and exit: In all clients, the painstakingly prepared groups are hardwired in the client. No easy way to get them out. When one desires [...]

Impressive, isn’t it. The good thing about it is that it will accelerate standards compliance for all browsers.
New identi.ca rocks
Posted in Tech News, tagged identica laconica microblogging on January 23, 2009 |
Today identica rolled out a new, well, a new bit of everything: new version, new interface, new functions and features, new optimism on the field. It’s been sometime since I last checked so I am not 100% sure what was already there and what appeared today, but I am pretty sure that the ‘groups’ are [...]

Posted in Tech News, tagged google, Google Blog Search, Techmeme on December 4, 2008 |
Just read the news: Techmeme will abanbon its three year legacy of aggregating tech news in an automated way and become a hybrid (human eidited -auto aggregated) news site. I gave a quick look to how techcrunch and readwriteweb present the news and I bed to differ in my judgment. IMHO the main reason that [...]

Posted in Technology, tagged Aggregator, atom, comments, digital identity, protocol, salmon on October 18, 2009 | 11 Comments »
