Yahoo’s delicious meal!

Pietro — Tue, 13 Dec 2005 12:28:10 +0000

I wanted to start this entry congratulating with Joshua for the deal. But I won’t. Tha facts: the web site delicious have been sold to Yahoo!.

I personally don’t dislike Yahoo. I positively hate them. For having eaten and raped startup websites, one after the other. For being totally obscure in terms of contact with [...] Related posts:

No more Ivory Towers I am right now at the FET 11 conference. There I was attending a session from my old friend Josh Bongard on Crowdsourcing Science . There I commented that it would be already a good thing if scientists started to make themselves available to the wider public. This by giving a timetable when they are [...]...

Blog your mind map

Pietro — Thu, 19 May 2005 22:33:33 +0000

Great results! Great results!

I finally managed to find a way to integrate my mind maps with my blog. Not just as static images or as external pages, but as living entities inside the blog. I learned it from the code in Wikka. And as always in those cases, once you find the solution, it [...] No related posts.

The purge

Pietro — Mon, 09 May 2005 11:32:08 +0000

I did some spring cleaning on the delicious mind map maker. I deleted some of the oldest maps, also from the period when the program was not working fine. If your map got deleted, please don’t be too angry, and just make it again. Unfortunately the only way I had to find the old maps [...] No related posts.

Technorati does not pull all the info from the tags

Pietro — Tue, 12 Apr 2005 11:09:56 +0000

As I posted the previous entry, I went to technorati to check if it was being pulled. And what I discovered was that technorati was only pulling the first tag in the list.

I make quite an effort to add all the tags that I think might be relevant. This both to improve visibility, and [...] No related posts.

Short comunication

Pietro — Fri, 28 Jan 2005 13:13:29 +0000

I feel the duty to make a short comunication.

My windows system finally crashed under the weight of virus, worms, and similar. I had to recover under linux, but for some weeks I will be unable to have an OS of any kind working properly and completely. Eventually I will install a Suse 9.2. For [...] Related posts:

Third Map Maked Debugging session

Pietro — Sat, 15 Jan 2005 21:04:27 +0000

Did some more debugging. Now any unicode the user used in the tags should be ok. Still there is a big brick wall in terms of memory usage. And some users are not having any luck just out of the fact that their map is taking so much resources that it goes beyond the ISP [...] Related posts:

My new homepage Recently I have made some serious changes to my homepage. SOme of those changes I have been planning from a long long time. Others were more sudden. The central page is of course at pietrosperoni.it that leads to home.pietrosperoni.it. But then there was something that I wanted to do for a long time. Integrate my [...]...

Mind Map Maker being further debugged

Pietro — Wed, 12 Jan 2005 11:57:47 +0000

Some people (few) were in the unfortunate situation that the tool would calculate their map, and would correctly add it to the make map page, but then the map could not be open. If you were one of those people, I have good news. I tracked down the bug (this time only derived by my [...] No related posts.

Mind Map Maker being debugged

Pietro — Tue, 11 Jan 2005 11:04:24 +0000

Things are progressing, more and more people are using the tool. Unfortunately not for all was a succesful experience. I could spot two separate bugs. In the first case the map would not be created at all, and the program would stop just after making the poststotag dictionary. In the second the map would be [...] No related posts.
