| tadalist.. bastards! 04.02.2005 |
| Some minutes ago, sole sent me that website: tadalist. tadalist is another project done by the same guys that did basecamp. We were using since some months ago basecamp at work.. and it really works very fine, the whole project is well done and everything is very easy to do. tadalist is a very small part of basecamp that actually i usually don't use, but as feature is very cool. You can manage all your to do list very easily with it. I still missing groups and some features on it, but the idea is very cool, argh! ;) And have a great google feelling. Kudos to 37 signals |

| keep saving time! 03.02.2005 |
| Just some hours after write that post I found some nice stuff for the handheld. gpengine (with best 20 games pack) pcengine emulator with a pack of the best 20 games for it. That pack is really cool as some of the games that are in it are some of the games I was playing when I was small, that tennis one is quite addictive. SCUMM Pack I tried some months ago to use it on the handheld, but I had a lot of problems, with that pack everything is easy, and you got the games on the pack as well (but you will need the codes for each one, also day of the tentacle stills a bit buggy (it's a shame as I was trying to play the full game)) Dr.MD v1.0 That one doesn't include the roms, you have to search on internet for them, but the emulation is good enough to play on the bus on the way work some fast icehockey games :') Also, latelly, una-i is doing a 3drasterizer for the handheld and is very interesting ( you can download the last example here. If unai eventually finish them there will be probably a new era for the handheld. Perhaps I'll do a game for it also O:) |

1 comment| bloody page rank! 31.01.2005 |
| It's very funny how page ranking, google things and all that sort of things are annoying the web developing process.. It's not the first time that I have to sort that out, but now I'm doing right now a new version of a website. The design was looking fine, good new ideas and techy things but now, finishing the website, the client is asking to have a bunch of text at the footer of the page, like "special optimized text for searchers". That thing breaks the design easily, I tested things like adding the text in a layer and putting a fixed height to it, with an overflow:none, showing then only the first line of the content. But they say that Google can detect those kind of tricks. I honestly don't know if that's true or not but is making me lose time. The last problem is that google does have a pagerank with the old existing pages on the site, these pages were .html, now the site is done in .php and is really late to sort that thing. I'm sure that this "new" issues are happening to a lot of people.. so.. why they had to invent that page rank thing? It's very annoying!! ;) |

| use internet explorer! 20.01.2005 |
| Probably you are aware that latelly there were some "new" browsers on the streets, well, actually one, Firefox. But, be clever and don't use them. Let's see why: 1. Nobody uses Firefox as it don't come with the OS. Only some geeks are using it. 2. A lot of pages doesn't work well with Firefox as they are optimized for Internet Explorer (as it's the most used browser). 3. With Firefox you can't change the colour of the scrollbas. 4. You can install the Avantbrowser to add the tabbing system to Internet Explorer as well (somethting not really usefull). 5. With Firefox you can't use the windowsupdate web service. 6. Internet Explorer adds some great breaklines to make the page clearer. 7. Internet Explorer does have great support with Macromedia Flash, only have some small problems at Mac version of Internet Explorer. 8. Internet Explorer does have the best image viewer ever, with a very well optimized resize tool. 9. Internet Explorer doesn't have RSS integrated reader, but who cares? nobody uses that technology! 10. Within Internet Explorer you can use internetbased applications to add icons on your desktop, change your default page and add new tabs on your explorer with special search engines. If you need, you can format your harddisk with it as well. So, use Internet Explorer! |

| macromedia flash mx2004 10.01.2005 |
| version 7 and they still with the same old silly bug!! grrr! when you import an image to the stage (and basicaly when you exports the flash) the first vertical and horizontal line is duplicated, and the last vertical and horizontal line is elimitade. I am always fighting with that fix since flash4 adding a transparent pixel on the first vertical and horizonal lines (in the case is a gif). fix that bug for flash supadupahmxp2005pro please! |

| save time! 05.01.2005 |
| As some of you already know I bought a gp32 at the last edition of bcnparty. I bought is because I knew that was a platform where anybody could develop "legally" for free. And that means lots of apps, experiments, emulators, new uses for the handheld and all that. Just the first day I got it I found the module (xm, mod, it..) player mikplay32 and was really cool as there is a lot of great music done by trackers and usually doesn't need a lot of space.. like 1megabyte for a big one. That was great and I was expecting really good stuff for it. Then I checked pouet.net for some good demo for it and the best one was baardei/aardbei. Actually was amazing, really fast and shows what the handheld can actually do. Then I checked the emulators and I found that the emulators were a big battery killer. Somehow, using any emulator the screen started to do some white waves and then dead.. :( I checked some other emulators but more or less have the same problem. A good point was the port of Quake, very impressive but a bit slow to enjoy the game.. Then I started to test those miniOS for the hanheld where you could have some icons and add other for your apps, change the background.. and that's all.. well.. not bad. After some months I finally have some thoughts about it.. basicly, as nobody is paying for it and is not really easy to develop for it (atleast I tried to do that without good results), THE GP32SCENE IS FULL OF SHIT. A LOT of UNFINISHED games, apps, ports, tests.. the games are only some smallgames, like the typical flashgames, but the flashgames are usually better done.. there is too many shit and takes a lot of time and test to find something usefull/good. But of course as in all those non-comercial scenes there is some people that works hard to produce good stuff, and this is what I'm writting that post today, just to save your time in the case you get one of these handhelds. Apart of the mentioned tools/demos/games I said that's a selection of cool stuff developed for gp32: Slubman Firmware If you get a GP32, this is the first thing you have to add on it, that's a new BOOTMENU/TOOL for the handheld that makes Windows detect the handheld as an externalHD (this is really cool, because the tools for tranfer files with the original firmware sucks), also the firmware does have some small WinCommander on it. If you get one, put that on it! elena Tetris in a tube, quite original and with good music (music from Project A/Impact Studios demo I think) electronia Very addictive small game. GPSpout Totally weird game, very experimental, without sound but is quite addictive as well. Lacuna Probably you know that game, this is the 3D version, improving the original 2D game. And that's all by now, if I get something REALLY GOOD for it I'll post it here. Enjoy! |
