ConceptShare is an online visual collaboration tool that just got launched. It is gorgeous, not just the design but the workflow and UI. Lots of details, its the layering of tiny brushstrokes that make a masterpiece. It is so good that I am afraid to upload anything, because it would look shabby compared to web application.
Here is a PocketMod mod that grabs the daily cartoon from www.cartoonbank.com, which luckily is a jpeg. The PocketMod app does not allow for importing gifs (sorry, no Dilbert).
Cartoonbank has a strange way of providing the artwork, they name each one as the date, and not the “cartoon_of_the_day.jpg”. I do not know which timezone they are in and when the generate the file. Just wait a couple hours after midnight and you should be fine.
Grab the mod here.
Add one part RSS feed from tarot.com, and a pinch of zodialogical clip-art. And presto! A Horoscope mod. Just edit the description in the xml for your sign and it will grab the correct feed.
I do not believe in astrology, I just can’t get over the fact that other people born the same week that I was are going to get the same advice, like… “Get good news from a friend” or “Now is a good time to ask for a raise”. A friend of mine told the reason that I did not believe in it was because I was a virgo. What? Oh, nevermind.
I have had a sudden burst of module development recently. I won’t have a new ones in while, too busy with the holidays.
