using Twitterrific with identi.ca
Since identi.ca has introduced support for the Twitter API, switching Twitterrific over seems to be as easy as entering this command in a Terminal window:
defaults write com.iconfactory.Twitterrific baseUrl -string 'identi.ca/api'
The command to switch back is the following:
defaults write com.iconfactory.Twitterrific baseUrl -string 'twitter.com'
You'll also need to restart Twitterrific after each of ...

date-based pagination
Here's a small idea I've not yet had the chance to try out on a large scale: Time-based pagination in lieu of page-number-based pagination for personal content - ie. blogs, bookmarks, status updates, etc. (You know, User Generated Content except I dislike the term.)
Page numbers change over time, ...

Queue everything and delight everyone
This is a blog post I've had simmering in my brainmeats for well over a year or two. I'm suddenly inspired to break blog-radio-silence and get it out of my head.
From Let the microblogs bloom - RussellBeattie.com:
Once this is widely accepted (and I'm sure there are many that would ...

on what should I hack next?
I know this isn't LiveJournal, but I just found what looks like a decent poll plugin for WordPress. So, I'll try it out and solicit your opinion all at once:

Why I?m playing with Laconica
I just posted a quick writeup on Laconica installation. But, beyond the how, there's the why.
As I mentioned in that entry, I've started and neglected at least two attempts at building a distributed Twitter clone. That's mostly been a function of how busy I've been; how ...

Getting Laconica up and running
The latest mini-sensations to arrive through my firehoses are identi.ca, a Twitter-clone / microblogging site, and the Open Source software Laconica, which powers the aforementioned site.
Having started and neglected two Twitter cloning attempts of my own, Cuckoo and OpenInterocitor, seeing someone else carry the torch with any modicum of momentum ...

Putting the Sexy into Firefox Theme Browsing
As mentioned back in week 3, I'd started work on bug 419647 to "add a sexy theme browser" to addons.mozilla.org.
Well, I'm not sure about my success in imbuing it with the required sexiness, but it's at least been noticed by someone. :)

Firefox 3 Download Day Mega Widget
Update: Oh, and rumor has it that this widget will switch to reporting on downloads, rather than pledges, once the main event has begun.
Update 2: It didn't quite go like clockwork, but this widget is now showing estimated downloads by countries, rather than pledges.
Thanks to the completion of bug 435967, ...

Week 3 at Mozilla
So, it's getting to the end of my third week at Mozilla, and I'm a part of the Planet now?hooray! Having gotten a membership into that club, I feel like I should start making some noise about what I'm doing at work. Having stayed mostly quiet about day ...

Markdown, Oh the Humanity
I use Markdown to write for this blog, and I don't think I could write much online without it. (Of course, that's not saying much lately?but nevermind that for now.)
Although I do appreciate all the effort put toward enhancing on the web, I'm not a fan of WYSIWYG ...
