RE: [backstage] Tags du jour

2007-08-25 Thread Christopher Woods
I saw a really nice, nifty little widget for social bookmarking on this
site: http://foxattacks.com/iran
 
Avoiding the content and topic of this site (which I happen to agree with,
anyway), scroll down past the YouTube vid and - see the little maroon
Digg-like icon? Click it. Not only does it add another +1 vote (a pssst I
suppose) it then gives you the links to bookmark with the most popular
sites, as well as email it and add it to your facebook. I've not tried them,
but they must work, and I think it's a very nifty idea.
 
It's like five or six bookmarklets condensed! But unfortunately from what I
can tell it's a bespoke solution... I'd love to have something like that
available to use, it's really handy.

Can't say I've ever used buttons like that - if I can't do something like
that via a bookmarklet, I don't do it at all!
 
Whether we're in the majority or not Jason, is another matter - looking at

Most (all?) of these sites have bookmarklet functionality. Pretty harsh to
ban that.

I bet these buttons aren't used by 99% or more of the people that visit the
pages. I don't think the average visitor cares. You only have to look at the
del.ico.us homepage to see that the most bookmarked stuff is all about web
dev URLs.

James, you may be interested to know that that link (presumably your blog)
is blocked by Websense (yes, I work Saturdays); apparently:

The Websense category Social Networking and Personal Sites is filtered.
What exactly do you have on there. I'm intrigued... I'm certainly going to
check it out at home now.

2007-08-23 Thread vijay chopra
Hehe, I know the people who run my local web cafe, fortunatly they're
nothing like that and still let people do virtually anything that dosn't
take up large amounts of bandwidth. They use Deep Freeze (
http://www.faronics.com/html/deepfreeze.asp) to limit ant damage.

Personally I like to confuse people by booting my own OS on their PCs
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/04/02/qemu-persistent-slax-linux/
at the very least, I use my own browser: http://portableapps.com/ , as I've
got it set up just right.

I wonder what these other cyber cafes would think of that?

If you read the links above (that you know all about!) you will see that 
certainly for the Monobook skin nothing can be placed below the search box by 
default and the toolbox contains a selection of links which change depending on 
what type of page you are viewing.


If you want to hack around /skins/MonoBook.php then do but IMHO the simple role 
of creating dynamic links is what a wiki is all about and is very easily done in 
 the sidebar or template :-)
