BitsyBox: Good for the Developer, Good for the Site Owner - http://www.readwriteweb.com/readwri...
Joshua Nunn liked this
BitsyBox is a hosted content storage platform that allows developer access through an API and a simple user interface for their clients to edit content without touching the code. It's been described to us as "content storage and management without the CMS." Co-founded by three West Los Angelenos, the platform's two components work through a free, downloadable PHP client and take a good bit of hassle (read: the penny-ante, back-and-forth of site edits) out of the business of web design and development. Sponsor Of course, something that takes so many of the small tasks of website maintenance away from developers and allows clients just enough control over content could only be the brainchild of a veteran freelance developer, which cofounder Scott Rocher is. Rocher wrote to us in an email, "Using BitsyBox's simple and secure web interface, developers can define data schema for each of their sites... and site-owner clients can edit the site content in real time."

What's weird is I have a lock-cap on the tank, but it apparently didn't engage. I filled up completely yesterday morning ($80, 70L), then yesterday night I had 5L left. I checked for leaks - none. I took it to a mechanic this morning to see if the fuel sender was gone but it was fine and yes the tank was completely empty. I filled up again today.

Cheeky thieving bugger! No thoughts except to park in a very public place if you can. It must take time to drain a tank. You'd think passers-by might notice! What about a notice inside the back window saying you have a CCTV trained on your car for security reasons ... you never know!

"Google Squared, the service that automatically generates lists of entities and associated attributes, is now live. "Google Squared is a new way of organizing information on the Web to make it more useful and structured," explains Google. For example, if you search for [African countries], Google Squared generates a list of countries, then it finds attributes that should be appropriate when you describe a country (capital, currency, image/map) and it tries to find values for the attributes. Google Squared shows only the first 7 results, but you can always add new results and even new attributes. Clicking on the first blank column, Google Squared suggests 5 new columns: area, religion, language, GDP and Internet users."

fwed, Ping.fm allows you to post to multiple micro-blogging services not just FF. I use it to post to Twitter and several other sites. I wish, though, hat FF supported both Hellotxt and Ping.fm. Both have APIs and you are already able to use them on the likes of Twitterfeeds.

I've just added FriendFeed as my RSS reader and in the process of ditching Google Reader. If FF supported Hellotxt/Ping.fm then it would be wipe out those Chrome tabs. Then if it allowed us to bulk import our Twitter (non-FF) friends then it would be my Twitter client. Gosh, if it was a "wave" it would be my email client. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
@Kol, FF is actually becoming kind of an email client for me, and for the small part of my "pals" who joined a private goup of mine on friendfeed. "Direct message" functionnality is cool for that reason : if he's around, he'll be notified. If he's not, he'll receive a regular email. I guess some not-so-far-from-now day, the term "mail" will be deprecated, and we'll talk about "messages", or, better "flows", "streams"... "Did you get my stream?"...
- Zackatoustra
Agree. I'm relatively new to social media but find FriendFeed offers me the most value, so that's where I find myself focusing. Must be something here. I'd be very interested to hear your analysis of FF after a while.
- Hamilton Wallace
Zackatoustra, if only I could get all my friends onto FF or FF allowed for non-FFers to use my FF email (koltregaskes@friendfeed.com) to email me. Or perhaps I could set up a forwarding rule that posts everything to me to go to the ff.com address, hmmm.
- Kol Tregaskes
Ah yes, forward an email to your ff.com address only gives you the subject name and no content apart from perhaps your signature that was added after the forward. :-(
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol - I too would like to use my FF email. Right now I auto forward some email to a private group (secret email). The subject is the FF title and body (text only) is added as a comment. When manually forwarding, I noticed the same behavior that you did.

- Kol Tregaskes
Kol, I've tried the solution you suggests(forwarding mails) , but that doesn't work : the "non-FFers" receive an annoying message each time their mail is fwed to FF : "Hello, Your email message to FriendFeed (included below) was sent from an unauthorized email address (<non-FFer>@gmail.com) and requires approval.

People who use the anonymity of the internet to insult you without fear of retribution - suck.
Steven Perez, Haggis (Sean Loyless), nakachi and 20 other people liked this
Fine, that happens a lot (and not due to "anonymity" as you claim, because we all are pseudonymous at best here, but because of netizens' inability to hold a civilized impersonal discourse) – but let us then not forget the ego-drama queens who cry wolf in lieu of a better argument. BTW. claims of "being offended" sadly seem to be the new method for playing a victim, and are not confined to any one culture.
- ianf ⌘
The main point is - people who insult others through comments online tend to utilize less of a personal filter than if they were to insult others face-to-face. I think that's unfortunate.
- Nathan Chase
Well, Nathan, since you indirectly aspire to be an arbiter of verbal offense - would you say that telling someone who addresses you per "calm down" and "peace kids" that you "already had a mother. One was enough" is offensive per se (actually "rude" was the charge used; or maybe it was an attack on the Motherhood itself, I dunno). Be specific.
- ianf ⌘
ianf - I disagree; I'd bet that the more anonymous one is, the more willing one is to forgo civility (since crudeness has a social cost). You're right that we're "anonymous" relative to our real life personae, but you have a *new*, online community that knows and likes "ianf." To the extent that ianf as a handle is meaningful to you, you won't want to tarnish it with those same costs of incivility.
- Jeremy Thompson
I don't get the "I'm offended" thing, either. I think it's annoying and overplayed. But that's not really Nathan's angle here, the way I'm reading it. It's possible for him to dislike the motivations and actions of anonymous instigators without playing the "offended" card.
- Jeremy Thompson
Jeremy, you are of course aware, that neither of our arguments can be proven beyond reasonable doubt. All I'm trying to say, is that Nathan's chief offense culprit of "anonymity" misses the mark, because (to take just a simple example) while your nick of "Jeremy Thompson" may be full of meaning and truth to you, to others it may just as well be a made-up label for your online...

- Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
I never did like the LOTR movies, but I saw them out of geek obligation. RotK was the least enjoyable, because I saw it for free (yay) but in a theater with broken A/C. Overheating + an overlong movie with a ton of fake endings = a grudge I still haven't forgotten.

Computer animation, once one of the most isolated corners of Hollywood, is rapidly becoming one of the most crowded. With the cost of computer animation coming down because of advances in technology and soaring box office receipts for family films, a broad range of new animation players are entering the multiplex. In 2009 14 animated movies — most of them computer-generated — will have a wide release, compared with 8 such films in 2005. Pictures from independent producers like Imagi Studios, which has “Astro Boy” lined up for an October release, are competing with the likes of “Up,” from Pixar, and “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs,” set for release on July 1 by 20th Century Fox. Sony’s own computer-animated movie, “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs,” is scheduled to open on Sept. 18.

Hands-on with Wave: Weird and quite wonderful | Webware - CNET - http://news.cnet.com/8301-17...
Kol Tregaskes, yagami, Lu Tao and 5 other people liked this
"In fact, the reason Wave is being released in the way it is right now -- as an early developer-only experience -- is to encourage programmers to write extensions to it. The e-mail gateway is particularly critical, and Google may develop it itself. Without it, Wave is yet another new communications medium that will have a hard time getting off the ground since it duplicates many capabilities people are already accustomed to. Wave is technically a radical departure from e-mail, but for the end users it will still be used for a lot of the same things e-mail is." - Yes, it's another Wave hands-on report. But the difference in this one is the realistic conclusion reached: as radical as Wave is, it will need links to email and other services long before it overtakes them

Lindsey, if I want to see wanky drama I'll watch Passions or Y&R. Batman, a superhero, needs kick arse powers or GTFO
- Mo Kargas
So Mr Movie Producer, I have two scripts: One is a story about a man hell bent on revenge, riddled with regret, trapped in suit that represents the best and worse of human kind, a suit that hurts all that he loves and will ultimately destroy his mind and his soul... The other is about a time travelling robot from the future with big explosions...
- Johnny Worthington
Say it ain't so, Mo; say it ain't so. :p Seriously, the point of Batman is that he doesn't have any powers except his human capabilities: intelligence, science, and athleticism (and incredible wealth, true, but that's a device to make it believable, to give him the resources for the science and the time to pursue it all). He stands as a sharp contrast to Superman, and that is why the together they are billed as the "World's Finest" in the crossovers (though I think Wonder Woman should be added).
- Neal Jansons
I'll be choosing the second one John :) @Neal, why even bother with the wanky suit then!
- Mo Kargas
Super powers or not, he could kick my ass. #bitchlips (And +10 Pete for the comic book stuff. The Killing Joke is no, uh joke.)
- Derrick
I love Batman's gadgets more than Batman!
- vijay
If the made the Killing Joke into a movie... errr... If it was possible to make it into a movie that wouldn't suck scrotum... Game Over!
- Johnny Worthington
@Mo Because, like Johny pointed out, the suit hyperbolizes the human condition. He is split between his anger and compassion, his darkness and his desire for justice and to help people. The suit is that of a villain that strikes fear, yet at the same time is a symbol of hope and justice for the oppressed. Comic books, at least some of them, possess all the elements of high literature, you just have to look. Batman is one of these.
- Neal Jansons
@Neal - A Robin Hood type figure?
- Mo Kargas
Now that's an interesting question :) Who *are* the literary predecessors of Batman? Or is he a unique 20th century postmodern creation?
- Victor Ganata
@Mo No, not really. He is kind of his own figure. All I suggest is read the Frank Miller Batman graphic novels. Because of the nature of comic characters being distributed over many eras and authors, it's hard for fans to explain the literary qualities to be found within them. You have to read a lot of Batman books to *get* Batman. Same thing with most of the best DC characters. Marvel is different.

Richard, my understanding is that Alan Moore initially wanted to use known DC characters, but DC didn't want him to maim or kill any of them, so he created original characters based on known characters.
