Pulse – PLAXO – Amazing. This is it.

Your friends and family are creating great online content everyday: photos, videos, restaurant reviews, and a lot more. The problem is that it’s scattered over hundreds of sites and you have no idea when it gets updated. Pulse is a social network for your REAL life. When you connect to someone, you categorize them as a friend, family member, or in your business network. You tell us which sites you already use, and through the power of RSS and APIs we’ll pull in whatever you update and share it with who you tell us to (your family, your real friends, or your business network).

Here are the sites we have so far: Amazon.com, AOL Pictures, Del.icio.us, Digg, Flickr, Jaiku, Last.fm, LiveJournal, MySpace, Picasa, Pownce, Smugmug, Tumblr, Twitter, Webshots, Windows Live Spaces, Xanga, Yahoo! 360, Yelp, and YouTube. (we’ll be adding many more soon)

Finnaly an all flash site that controls addressBar

So you click on the “see direct URL Link in address bar” and

Holyshit.. there’s a deeplink in the URL address bar via flash embed

Man, I’ve been looking something like this.

Apparently googling  “as3 direct url link in address bar” theres someone written up a lib/class/package that does this.

Very Cool.

State Managment Flash As3- Deep Linking, Address Bar, & State Ajax

Fuck I hope this WORKs!!

clipped from exanimo.com The flash community has been talking about, and proposing solutions for, “fixing the back button,” for much longer than I’ve been developing in Flash, but when a sunKING client asked for a working back button in their flash site, I decided to have a go at it. Like most of these things, the xa StateManager fixes the back button and provides deeplinking. Unlike all of the other solutions, the ex animo StateManager is the first method to be fully compatible with Safari. Since the class uses ExternalInterface, you’ll need to publish to at least Flash 8. It’s been tested successfully in IE5.5, IE6, FF 1.5.06, and Safari 2.0.4 but will degrade gracefully (i.e. behave like a normal flash page) in unsupported browsers. The StateManager also works for AJAX applications. For more information, read Using the StateManager in AJAX Apps.

Each meme also has a weight associated with it that indicates how predictive FeedHub expects it to be in choosing content you’ll like.” Personalization startup mSpoke is launching a new product to mashup and personalize RSS feeds

Make it a portable standard of sorts, rank the posts and let me decide how much I want to read: on busy days, perhaps just the top posts; on days with more free time, all of them. Further down the line, I think we’ll also see increased personalization: rather than showing me the stuff that the world likes best, show me what my friends and similar people liked

Scraping with Ruby and FireBug

about 10-20 lines of code..

I like that.

clipped from www.igvita.com Ruby Screen-Scraper in 60 Seconds I often find myself trying to automate content extraction from a saved HTML file or a remote server. I’ve tried a number of approaches over the years, but the dynamic duo of Hpricot and Firebug blew me away – this is by far the fastest way to get what you want without compromising flexibility. Hpricot is an extremely powerful ruby-based HTML parser, and Firebug is arguably the best on-the-fly development add-on for Firefox. Now, I said it will take you about 60 seconds. I lied, it should take less. Let’s get right to it.

SO x-path or css selector as Scrape Map.

Extraction from the DOM

clipped from www.quarkruby.com Firequark : quick html screen scraping 1 Firequark is an extension to Firebug to aid the process of HTML Screen Scraping. Firequark automatically extracts css selector for a single or multiple html node(s) from a web page using Firebug (a web development plugin for Firefox). The css selector generated can be given as an input to html screen scrapers like Scrapi to extract information. Firequark is built to unleash the power of css selector for use of html screen scraping. HTML screen scraping is a common technique of extracting information about specific and useful elements from a web page. Independent of programming language, for extracting an element from a web page one need to know its exact location or a key to uniquely identify the element. There are two approaches for uniquely identifying an element: using XPath or CSS Selectors. XPath for HTML screen scraping.

clipped from www.robbyonrails.com Saying Goodbye Was Never This Hard 2 Earlier today, I got an email notification from my old Friendster account, which ended up being spam. I hadn’t logged into the account in ages and looked around at my profile and others. No meaningful interaction between my friends in a few years. It’s felt like a ghost town. So, I thought… “should I just delete my account?” I was thinking about doing the same thing with my Facebook account as well, because I’m getting tired of being invited to applications a few times a day due to a friend leaving my name checked when they sign up for a game. (this is getting old…)
