So decided to try out the new Zooomr photo sharing service just to see what it’s like, some of it mimics flickr a bit, but curious if there’s anything cool, I see geotagging which is cool for trips I think. Anyway, check out the cute kitty, old picture but she still likes bags.
So I decided to try out Feedburner, so you should update your RSS readers for anybody actually subscribed to my blog, since some RSS readers probably won’t follow the 301 redirect that’s being issued on the current URLs your using.

I just created a simple bookmarklet to invoke Zend Studio’s debugger from a browser with the page I’m currently viewing, I can even do this on a different machine if I have it setup to allow other hosts to do remote debugging. Here’s the code, you just have to replace debug_host= value with your Zend Studio machine’s IP. You can just drag this to your bar and edit it to match your setup or just copy the href.
So OmniWeb 5.5 Sneaky Peak 6 is out, and is publicly available, which is awesome because I get to try it out. I really like OmniWeb but I stopped using it due to some slowness and being behind Safari in Javascript support. But now OmniWeb is using a recent build of WebKit powering it’s rendering and javascript so things like AJAX powered web applications now work fine in OmniWeb. Although I immediately ran across a problem with some AJAX things like drag & drop producing a 501 error which I saw happened in a series of WebKit builds, no idea why it happens and not very everything, so unsure if it’s something I can fix on my site or if it’s completely problem in WebKit.
I just played with “Google Calendar”:http://calendar.google.com and I like it quite a bit. It’s simple to add events like in “Apple’s iCal”:http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/ical/ and has some pretty cool sharing and invitation features. You can subscribe via the iCalendar(ics) standard too, read-only it looks like. It would be awesome if you could edit & view from a calendar app like iCal though. But so far impression is very good.
So I just implemented the usage of “Lightbox”:http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/ on a work project since I wanted to make a full-image-viewer from clicking on thumbnails but did not want to have to go dig up the javascript for it etc. I then realized lightbox would be perfect since it’s usage on my blog. Lightbox isn’t anything new but it’s damn cool I must say. This just after being psyched about implementing “Ajax-powered drag & drop”:http://php.macsaresexy.com/sort/ on the same project, downside is the drag & drop doesn’t have a non-javascript method yet.
So “pure CSS Tooltips”:http://psacake.com/web/jl.asp work in “WebKit”:http://webkit.opendarwin.org/ now, as of Feb 18th nightly. This is pretty cool because we’ve been using the pure css tooltips trick at work and it’s pretty slick, no javascript required. It hasn’t worked quite right in Safari, sometimes horribly so. But now it looks like it’ll at least work when Safari gets updated with latest WebKit whenever that may be. I’m also impressed at how fast the WebKit project fixed the bug I reported.

There appears to be “another method”:http://lixlpixel.org/css_tooltip/ to pure css tooltips that might be rendering in current Safari correctly though.
So I’m now definitely Zend Certified now that I got my framed certificate, seems kinda silly but kinda cool at the same time.
Check it out:
Spiffy, blogging.org is for sale, I’m watching in curiosity of how much it might go for, seems like quite a nice name to catch.
I mentioned it on newsvine too
I like the winning “Typo”:http://typo.leetsoft.com theme, which might be a bad thing to switch to in the sense that since it’s winning, everybody and their mom using Typo might switch to it.
It looks quite nice, has a fluid mode, etc.:
