TOKI WOKI. 

Hi there!

I’ve been quiet for some time because my lap­top died with­out warn­ing… But hap­pily I’m back with a brand new one (with Vista, ouch!) and just took time to enhance this blog a bit!

First of all I’ve updated the theme’s code so the HTML out­put is cleaner. Nobody cares, but I do.

Then, I’ve devel­oped a func­tion­al­ity that will allow me (and oth­ers?) to make this blog more active: Link dump. It’s still empty for the moment, but don’t worry it should fill quite quick!

Basi­cally it allows me to only post links and mys­te­ri­ous titles… No extra words, no image, just a sim­ple link. Click at your own risks.

These links will also pop in your feed reader and to make them look dif­fer­ent their title will be pre­fixed with a funny ∗ char­ac­ter. This is also true for the blog, here’s how it will look like:

You’ll still be able to com­ment on the links like you do on reg­u­lar posts…

Glad to be back!

I’ve posted my 2008’s favorite albums on Ébruiter. It’s in french but there’s not much to read so you might get it, in case you’re interested.

What would be yours, fel­low reader?

A new project is online! It’s called Kwot, and it allows you to share and store your favorite quotes.

The UI is quite min­i­mal­is­tic, with focus on sim­plic­ity. Nav­i­gate through quotes with your mouse wheel, your keyboard’s left and right arrow or the mini time­line at the bot­tom. Add a quote by click­ing on the plus but­ton at the bot­tom right hand cor­ner. If you don’t pick any color they’ll be auto­mat­i­cally cho­sen via a magic algo­rithm! Another magic algo­rithm will rotate your quote in 3D space. But don’t worry you will pre­view that in real-time, ha!

I might add user (login) sup­port, lan­guage tag­ging, an RSS feed and stuff like that but don’t expect that too soon, hol­i­days are coming!

If you don’t have the Flash plu­gin or if you visit the site on an iPhone the site will look quite dif­fer­ent but every­thing will remain!

A few things I used in case you won­der: swfad­dress (you will love deep-linking!), GTween, FlashDe­velop, AMFPHP, the view­port width attribute… Oh, and by the way, the font face is called Neu­tra.

Add some quotes and drop feedback!

This photo was orig­i­naly called “Fear smil­ing peo­ple, they might be dangerous”.

Heads up to Sebastien!

Quick and sim­ple logo.
