Am I the only person who absolutely despises Knuth's "Computer Modern" font? I don't know what it is about it, but it just looks awful to me. And I'm one of those people who used TeX for everything including drawing finite automata and analytic tableaux back in college.
- Jim Norris
I'm with you, Jim. That's why, following the book _TeX Unbound_, I used other fonts in my LaTeXed thesis. From the colophon: "I used mathinst to make a mathematical font family of Monotype Bembo Semibold (from Agfa-Monotype), MathTime (from Y&Y), Chantilly (from Softmaker, similar to Gill Sans), Typewriter (from the Electronic Font Foundry), and a few others, with which I typeset this dissertation."

I always had \usepackage{times} in my LaTeX documents.

Times is almost as bad though. At one point I figured out how to use Adobe Garamond, but it was kind of flaky.

I didn't like Computer Modern or Times. I used Century Schoolbook for my stuff, I think (\usepackage{newcent}).

Omg I love it! Lately I've been doing more wireframes than actual mockups, and I wanted them to be team-editable as well, so I was using Google Doc's drawing tool. This is way better. Great find!

It's Hypercard! (edit: no it's not)

Neat. It's a canvas app.

Anyone had experience with Balsamiq? Wondering how mockingbird compares
- Adam Kazwell
Nice, but I don't think many clients are going to enjoy being told to 'just upgrade to a PROPER browser!' when they discover they can't view the wireframes in IE
- Duncan
"Proper: Of the required type; suitable or appropriate" Could have chosen a less aggressive word, but it sounds like IE isn't a browser of the required type, so the word is technically correct in this context. The question of whether IE *should* be improper is another matter.
- Kevin Fox
I don't think it's a case of whether it's a proper browser or not, regardless of the definition; the usefulness of the app would be somewhat stunted if one half of team have problems using it. Or at least, I hope I'm not the only one who's had clients who still use IE6, and, for one reason or another, can't upgrade. Anyway, I'll shut up now, this is beta software, just hope that moving forward, they at least support IE8!
- Duncan
There is no sane reason to be developing software for IE6 anymore as it's past for even Microsoft. Yeah, they still make some random updates to it but if some companies are stuck with IE6 (for other reasons than having some software that are binded to that specific version) some might ask if their security policy is working or not.
- Daniel Schildt
It's good to develop software that works in most browsers but there is no good reason go get stuck in the past while creating something totally new. Mockingbird is meant as development tool and if some client does not want to have properly working browser, it's their problem. Wireframes are just the beginning part of UI development so there isn't need that have this kind of software working in ancient browsers (as if developers would still mainly develop everything first for IE6...).

Reminds me somewhat of ClutterMe http://www.clutterme.com/ - they figured out how to make a whole page in-place-editable (javascript of course) - just click anywhere and start typing: http://www.clutterme.com/pages...

Nice, discover links obscured by CSS
- Orlando Pozo
Cute trick. Not being familiar with java script (at all) what is the void%200 statement there for?
- Eric Borisch
Without the void 0, the browser will navigate to a page showing the result of the computation.
- Paul Buchheit
Not grasping the %200, though
- Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
But that's not the case when I just execute it in the (safari) address bar. I take it that's expected?
- Eric Borisch
%20 is a space. I'm not sure about safari -- I use ff.

Cool. This + FB + malcontents + screenshots = ???

What is this supposed to do again ?-- it does nothing that I can discern in IE, FF or Chrome (on Vista).

I'm still on Chrome 3.0.195.27 but it says no update detected... this is in Win7. Pretty sure my OSX Chrome is 4.0.223.11 though.

4.0.223.11 is the latest in the dev stream.

Works on Chrome Mac version here. I added the script as a new bookmark in the menu.

Try this instead to avoid the %20 weirdness: javascript:void(document.body.contentEditable=(document.body.contentEditable!='true'))

Doesn't seem to work either -- maybe a bug in the dev version?

I realized after playing for a while, some of the keyboard events stop working, like submitting form by hitting Enter .. (FF 3.5.3)

this is the fundamental line of every wysiwyg editor you use. for IE use allowEdit
- Tzury Bar Yochay
Clicking it a second time makes it un-editable (and therefore it should respond to events and such).

So how do you discover 'hidden' links.?

Cool, worked for me (the box is Windows Chrome 3.0.195.27)

So someone in *your* family doesn't grok Twitter either. My brother says he'll never even set up a Twitter account at all; he sees no point either. Apparently these people see the words "What are you doing?" above the text box and think it's nothing but the Facebook status update without Facebook. Some people just don't get it at all...

My sister has known that I've used Twitter for several years now. Whenever I brought it up, that was her reaction, "Don't get it. Don't see the point." She created an account a month or so ago and she's totally into it now. When I asked her what made the difference, she shrugged and said she wasn't sure. "Your friends started using it, didn't they?" I asked her. "Yes." heh. :D

Re Mona: I myself didn't even bother to sign up for Twitter till this last June, when I discovered an existing online songwriting community I belong to had a Twitter presence.

Most everyone I know is on Facebook now, with a few exceptions that refuse to use much of anything on the internet except for youtube and blogs. Nobody gets the point of twitter, especially with facebook/friendfeed offering the same type of communication options, if not more. However, the nice thing about twitter/friendfeed is that it's searchable. The other day I was watching the events from Fort Hood unfold on twitter. I couldn't do that easily on facebook. That's where twitter shines.

My Second Life avatar started on Twitter in the good old days, when everyone you followed followed you back. But my real life account has about 20 followers, so it only really works as a reader - and that rocks.

I do agree. It is really difficult to convince someone to use twitter. And even if I do, they don't stay active on the service. They too state "I don't see any point in the service". Often are the times when they are convincing me it is nothing but a blog platform with 140 characters limit.
- Amit
I've learned that it's not a good idea to try to convince friends to join Twitter. Unless they get it, they will simply annoy you with Facebook style Tweets. Better to seek out Twitter users who have learned the knack of posting interesting Tweets.

If she doesn't get it, or anyone else for that matter, be glad they're on their way. Twitter never worked for me either and I'm happily not participating as well.

I see Twitter as another information portal, and a social channel (albeit limited). For those things it's great. I don't use facebook all that much, but it's good to chat with old friends to say howdy and share current happenings. I'm me no matter what social hub I'm on, but the local laws/rules/community etiquette fits my preferences better in some virtual hangouts.

My daughter of about the same age also got and shortly thereafter canceled a twitter account.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Twitter is useful as a minimalist news broadcasting system. Twitter is worse than useless as a medium for conversation. I mostly use Twitter in combination with Topsy searches to pluck off the most interesting news stories of the day on selected topics. Without Topsy, I would stop using Twitter entirely because of the information overload.
- Sean McBride
Mona's point is pretty much spot on. I kind of "imported" a Revision 3 forum network into Twitter, which led to FriendFeed, which had sort of a recursive bend back into Twitter, which led to finding Twitter recommendations, which then opened me up to following people from IRL, and then...ah crap. I've stopped using Twitter as much, though, because Facebook is where the people I CARE about really are. And in case you're wondering, I'm friends with Mona on Facebook ;)
- Mike Nayyar
I've hit a wall trying to get my friends to sign up for Twitter. It's like they've got an image issue. Whenever I try to explain it's value for news and as RSS replacement, people sort of stop listening. They're left thinking it's Facebook without the "fun stuff," which is lesser and redundant for them.
- Jeremiah Green
Is it fair to say that the tweets related to tech news that some folks think are so wonderful and important are primarily links to web sites, blogs, new articles, and so on produced by someone other than the tweeter? So far as I've seen, subscribing to, say, all the employees of a company doesn't produce much news about the company; instead you see posts about where the employees ate lunch and stuff like that. Of course I may just not be looking at the right people.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Unless you have a defined business strategy, there really is not much point to Twitter, unless you just want to connect for fun, which is under my business strategy :)

SuezanneC has summed twitter up quite well. None of my family use twitter, took me ages to 'get it' but although my family all use Facebook, I don't like it. I stay to keep in touch with them.

It is very hard to keep motivated with all the bots, spam, ads, slaves and etc. Don't feel bad if you make mistakes because this is a new thing that is evolving underneath the feet of everyone on it. Like a quick sand that none of my family understand and I'm finding month to month that the growth of twitter it is getting more chaotic and the numbers of fake profiles is increasing, but...

Oh, I hadn't noticed that before but I haven't spent a lot of time in the Beta UI. It drives me nuts.

Good Idea!

Was the resolution improved on last update? I used twitpic, because FF limited the pic size to 1600, while twitpic did published it in full resolution.
- Ryo / Fuck Facebook
I never posted bigger pics to FriendFeed so I don't know. The only way to find is to try it.
- LouCypher
Been doing it since recently. Quite effective. Definitely more reliable than TwitPic. Except that there is no way to post *ONLY* FF photo posts to Twitter.
- Vijayendra (V-Mo) Mohanty
LouCypher, yes just did it. It's still limited to 1600x1200 :( I think I'll use Twitpic then, as long as I can't set the cam to automatically resize it to that resolution when sending via mail. Would be a waste of bandwith otherwise.
- Ryo / Fuck Facebook
Maybe it's due to fact that FF is not a photo hosting service.
- LouCypher
Well at last they offer that service, like you said :)
- Ryo / Fuck Facebook
Yeah, so your pictures are shared on Twitter, commented and 'Liked' on FriendFeed. Great!
- Thierry R. Andriamirado
and you can share multiple pictures from FriendFeed.
- LouCypher
What about TweetPhoto, now that it's finally open?
- Tyson Key
Tyson, at last it's open Beta now. Looks good, but I don't see any benefit over twitpic.

I do this as a matter of course. Stopped using TwitPic or any other service because of this.

Lara Alegre (aka Cordellia) is a 23-year old photographer from Barcelona, Spain. The way she captures emotion is so real and genuine you almost feel it through her photos. Each tell an interesting story that can only be deciphered by the experience the viewer brings to it. Does Lara have one particular type of emotion she likes to bring out? Well, she does have a few. "Every emotion is beautiful in some way… What I like to shoot the most is loneliness, tenderness, and love (or lack of love)."

*LOVE* Lovely find, Emma! :D (Good morning) ;))
- Brandon
Thank you Brandon! She's one of my favourite photographers on Flickr...so, it's nice to see her get some recognition!! :D (and good morning, right back atcha) ;))
- Emma
Her work is really amazing! Very inspirational. :D
- Brandon
Yes, very inspirational...I'd love to have some photos taken like these but I guess I need someone good to take them! :D Oh and btw, even if it was just for a second...it had the desired affect...you managed to torture the hell out of me!! I can never resist chocolate... ;))

حالا فهمیدم چرا 4دی به کوکاکولا علاقه داره
- هیتلر
She's using a Canon 5D & a 50mm f/1.4 for most of these shots (I also just purchased this lens). Even with all the equipment, though, her talent is hard---perhaps impossible to replicate! Her composition, cropping, and vignettes are perfect. About that chocolate post, I was browsing from my phone and it got deleted on accident. But glad you saw it ;))
- Brandon
Although the concept of following and followers is different for me on FriendFeed than on Twitter, I would like to see a tool that lets me easily see who is not following me back. Like friendorfollow.com does for Twitter.

If you look at your subscriptions, then mouse over the name links you will see who you can do a Direct Message with (those people follow you back) and those you can't (those are the people that don't follow you back.)
- CW™
CW, I do that, but it's a slow, manual process.
- Ben Hanten
Yeah sucks, but its one way. The script you might want to do is something that looks at your Subs and sees where the Direct Message link comes up for then adds the rest into another field.
- CW™
Makes sense. It's like anything in social media -- if you realize that certain people keep taking without ever giving, you'd like to be able to weed them out.
- Ben Hanten
After a while you'll start to unsub from them and clean up your feed. But I agree. I wish there was easier tools to use. But then again if there was such tools there would be people calling other people out all the time "Why didn't you sub me back?" "Your not interesting enough for my feed." "Well FU! I'm unsubbing from you, and blocking you!" "Fine then."
- CW™
It'd be a complete mess
- CW™
I don't think so. That doesn't happen on Twitter for the most part. You can be petty even without tools. :)
- Ben Hanten
Well the tools are definably needed.
- CW™
Ben: http://ff.deasil.com/friendv... does this, but it requires your actual username and password (it was written before the information was available through the API). I'm working on an updated version that will not require your account information: hopefully by this weekend.
- Mark Trapp
You can also use my version from V1 of the API that didn't require authentication, but it's extraordinarily slow and won't tell you anything about people you subscribe to that have private feeds: http://biggiantcomicsans.com/venn... Just replace itafroma with your user name. Green means it's reciprocal, red means it's not, and grey means I can't tell (private feeds).
- Mark Trapp
Mark, I'm excited for the new version. You could get a lot of hits on that.
- Ben Hanten
I'm trying out your first version. It's slow, but useful.
- Ben Hanten
Mark thanks for FriendVenn
- Iván Abrego
Hi Mark, any update on this? I have not bad able to get the v1 to work lately.
- Ben Hanten
I stopped work on it in favor of a data exporter due to FriendFeed's acquisition by Facebook. I'll see what I can whip up, at least in a non-authenticated version.

finally came in from GReader. After sleeping on it, I have some other ideas for how to push items back and forth between FF & Google Reader.
