- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>The Remember the Milk folks have added <a href="http://blog.rememberthemilk.com/2006/11/add-your-tasks-to-google-calendar.html">task management</a> to Google Calendar (something many wish Google had added themselves).</p> - <p>We know that many of you are managing your tasks with Remember The Milk and your events with Google Calendar, and we thought it would be very cool if we could bring the two together. This new feature adds a small task icon to the top of each day in Google Calendar — click on the icon to:</p> - <ul> - <li>Review your tasks for the day</li> - <li>Add new tasks and edit existing ones</li> - <li>Easily complete and postpone tasks</li> - <li>Review your overdue tasks</li> - <li>Optionally show tasks with no due date</li> - <li>See where your tasks are located on a map (Google Maps integration)</li> - </ul> - <p>This is really interesting. An outside group was able to add an important feature that we can not all use in a Google app itself.</p> - <p><a href="http://blog.rememberthemilk.com/2006/11/add-your-tasks-to-google-calendar.html"><img src="http://tech.cybernetnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/RememberMilkGC1.jpg" border="0" /></a> -</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=fbhz2iq1"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=fbhz2iq1" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=yMSQUquM"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=yMSQUquM" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=eoFosWuU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=eoFosWuU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=pYIIcHPu"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=pYIIcHPu" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>

- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Richard MacManus <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_docs_and_spreadsheets_interview.php">linked to</a> a <a href="http://gizbuzz.co.uk/2006/podcast-episode-3-google-docs-and-spreadsheets/">Gizbuzz interview of Jen Mazzon and Sam Schillace</a> of the Google Docs and Spreadsheets team (both ex-Writely).</p> - <p>Nothing ground-breaking, but it is interesting to hear about their thoughts on Ajax:</p> - <blockquote> - <h3>Browser compatibility issues - like the early graphic Web</h3> - <p>Next was a question about browser compatibility issues and how that affects D&S - and indeed the future of rich web applications. Sam responded that "it is definitely an issue [...] these apps are all cutting edge - it kind of reminds me of the early days of the graphical web, when you couldn't count on the browsers to render tables correctly [...]".</p> - <p>But he thinks it's "just growing pains" and it'll take about a year to sort those issues out.</p> - <p>Also on the question of whether Ajax is better than Flash and Laszlo etc, Sam thinks that Ajax is currently more web native.</p> - <h3>It's about being Web native, not cloning desktop apps</h3> - <p>Later in the interview, Jen stresses that they're "not trying to clone desktop apps". They want to be familiar to people, "but we're trying to do something that's actually more native to the Internet, more usable on the Internet."</p> - <p>Sam says they've had a lot of feedback that people like the fact they're not trying to copy desktop apps. He said "copying the existing stuff just feels irrelevant to us - we're not trying to copy, we're trying to re-invent."</p> - <p>Both Jen and Sam re-affirmed that collaboration and sharing is their main focus with D&S, as well as being web native - rather than trying to compete on features with desktop apps. -</p></blockquote> - <p>If you were asked "why is Ajax a better fit for some apps than Flash?" what would you say? Do you agree? Does the open web matter? What if Adobe fully opened up their format? -</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=NCLw33w0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=NCLw33w0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=gjXowiT4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=gjXowiT4" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=HeKJhsYv"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=HeKJhsYv" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=CWr8mgGL"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=CWr8mgGL" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>

Schutta and Ryan Asleson. This book seeks to give the experienced developer of Java web applications the knowledge necessary to add Ajax to their webapps. This is another Ajax book that goes broad rather than deep. Instead of investigating one or two frameworks, it delves into more than a half dozen, both Javascript and Java.</p> - <p>Quick summary: Chapters 2, 3 and 5 are the strongest in the book with useful information on tools, Javascript libraries and enhancing Struts applications with Ajax. The other chapters are not as strong and spend too much time covering old ground.</p> - <p>The book is divided into two parts. Part 1 is an introduction to a variety of Javascript and Java Ajax libraries and frameworks. Part 2 shows how to integrate those libraries and frameworks into existing Java web frameworks such as Struts and JSF. One place that this book differs from other Ajax books is that it doesn't have a chapter introducing the reader to the browser technologies that comprise Ajax. It doesn't dwell on the basics of Javascript, DOM and CSS. It expects you to have already read the Apress books on those topics. Instead, chapter 1 covers what I would call best practices and patterns -- autocomplete, partial page update, draggable DOM.</p> - <p>Read more of the review <a href="http://blogs.pathf.com/agileajax/2006/11/review_of_pro_a.html">here</a>.</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=5FIDIG43"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=5FIDIG43" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=5aOiDdHp"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=5aOiDdHp" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=hunPILOJ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=hunPILOJ" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=GTSOXqVS"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=GTSOXqVS" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>

- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Dan Webb has created two Rails plugins to make RJS even better. He has realised that although for some cases RJS is a great thing, you often do want to just use JavaScript, and it looks really ugly to do this:</p> - <div class="syntax_hilite"> -<div id="ruby-5"> - <div> -page &lt;&lt;'if (someClientSideVariable) {'<br /> -page['a'].replace_html :partial =&gt; 'thing'<br /> -page &lt;&lt;'} else {'<br /> -page['b'].replace_html :partial =&gt; 'thong'<br /> -page &lt;&lt;'}' -</div> - </div> -</div> - <p>He first came out with <a href="http://svn.danwebb.net/external/rails/plugins/minus_r/trunk/">MinusR</a> which takes of your rjs files and lets you code in JS, but still call out to the ruby style. For example:</p> - <div class="syntax_hilite"> -<div id="javascript-6"> - <div class="javascript"> -<span style="color: #000066; font-weight: bold;">if</span> <span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span>someClientSideVariable<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span> <span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">{</span><br /> - $<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span><span style="color: #3366CC;">'a'</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span>.<span style="color: #006600;">update</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span>&lt;%=js render<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span>:partial => <span style="color: #3366CC;">'thing'</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span> %&gt;<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span>;<br /> -<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">}</span> <span style="color: #000066; font-weight: bold;">else</span> <span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">{</span><br /> - $<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span><span style="color: #3366CC;">'b'</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span>.<span style="color: #006600;">update</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span>&lt;%=js render<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">(</span>:partial => <span style="color: #3366CC;">'thong'</span><span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span> %&gt;<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">)</span>;<br /> -<span style="color:#006600; font-weight:bold;">}</span><br /> - </div> - </div> -</div> - <blockquote><p> -MinusR gives you the js helper that calls to_json on any value passed to it so you can drop nicely escaped and formatted data into your script as before. Everyone’s a winner. Well, not quite, I could be going out on a limb here but I really think this is the better way. Go on, give it a go. A bit of javaScript won’t hurt you…. -</p></blockquote> - <p>Then a bunch of people wanted this to be doable, but in a separate file, so Dan created <a href="http://www.danwebb.net/2006/11/24/minusmor-released">MinusMOR</a>, which let's you do the same thing in .ejs files.</p> - <p>It is great to be able to choice your poison, even on a case by case basis, and decide whether JS or Ruby is the ruler. -</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=KzOPpBLk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=KzOPpBLk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=tyZWuMpT"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=tyZWuMpT" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=cYtOaSvj"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=cYtOaSvj" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=e2UryVSj"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=e2UryVSj" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>

- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p><a href="http://news.qooxdoo.org/qooxdoo-062-released">qooxdoo has a new release that adds support for Webkit</a>.</p> - <blockquote><p> -As mentioned above and already announced in our developer blog, qooxdoo now includes support for WebKit. We expect to fully support the next major version Safari 3.0 which will be based on the current development of WebKit. There is only limited support for Safari in its current version 2.0.4, though. Reason is, that Safari 2.0 still has many bugs that can hardly be worked around. Luckily, many of those bugs are already fixed in the nightly builds of WebKit. Besides the various bugs, Safari 2.0's JavaScript engine and its execution speed is not competitive with respect to the latest versions of the other major browsers (Firefox 2.0, IE7, Opera 9).

- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>The <a href="http://lollygagframework.com/">Lollygag framework</a> is a new Ajax framework for .NET.</p> - <p>As Steve the author put it:</p> - <blockquote><p> -We attended the first Ajax Experience conference in San Francisco and we got super excited about the potential for building Ajax applications. Since we have a Microsoft .NET background, we planned to start building Ajax applications using Microsoft’s Atlas framework. However, we quickly encountered several serious issues with Atlas. Doing simple things in Atlas, such as database access and form validation, turned out to be really difficult. We were also disappointed to discover that Microsoft has no plans to support its client-side Atlas framework in the immediate future.</p> - <p>We built the Lollygag framework in order to build true Ajax applications in the .NET environment. We wanted to build single page Web applications that never perform postbacks. All updates are performed through Ajax calls to the web server. -</p></blockquote> - <p><b>Features</b></p> - <ul> - <li>Powerful Widget Framework: The Lollygag framework includes a rich set of client-side widgets that you can use to display database data, perform form validation, and create rich animations. You declare widgets in a page in exactly the same way as you declare HTML tags.</li> - <li>Autocomplete Support: When you declare Lollygag widgets in a page, you get full autocomplete support while you type. To get autocomplete support, you must use an XML aware development environment such as Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.</li> - <li>Declarative Database Access: Accessing database data with the Lollygag framework is easy. You can bind client-side widgets directly to data exposed by a database or you can bind widgets to data exposed by a business object.</li> - <li>Secure Form Validation: When taking advantage of the Lollygag framework, you specify how a form field is validated only once. The validation is automatically applied on both the server and the client. Unlike other frameworks that only provide validation on the client, the Lollygag framework prevents malicious users from bypassing client-side validation and submitting data directly to the server.</li> - <li>Rich Animation Framework: Lollygag includes an entire animation framework. You can take advantage of animations to create different effects such as fades and wipes.</li> - <li>Cross-Browser Support: The full Lollygag framework works on the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, and Opera.</li> - <li>Automatic JavaScript Compression: The Lollygag framework compresses all JavaScript sent to the browser automatically. Any custom JavaScript code that you write as a developer is also compressed automatically.</li> - <li>Powered by .NET: The server-side portion of Lollygag is built on the Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework. You can build server-side business objects using standard .NET languages such as C# and VB.NET. Lollygag client-side widgets can consume data exposed through server-side objects.</li> - </ul> - <p><b>Hello World</b></p> - <div class="syntax_hilite"> -<div id="xml-14"> - <div class="xml"> -<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;"><</span>?xml <span style="color: #000066;">version</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"1.0"</span> <span style="color: #000066;">encoding</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"utf-8"</span> ?<span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;">></span></span><br /> -<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;"><</span>?xml-stylesheet <span style="color: #000066;">type</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"text/xsl"</span> <span style="color: #000066;">href</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"/lollygagSite/lollygagframework/0_1/lollygag.xsl"</span>?<span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;">></span></span><br /> -<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;"><lolly</span> :application <span style="color: #000066;">title</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"Hello World"</span> <span style="color: #000066;">xmlns</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"</span> xmlns:<span style="color: #000066;">lolly</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"http://lollygagframework.com/core"</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;">></span></span><br /> - <span style="color: #009900;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;"><lolly</span> :button <span style="color: #000066;">id</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"btnSumit"</span> <span style="color: #000066;">label</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"Click Here!"</span> <span style="color: #000066;">onClick</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">"alert('Hello!')"</span> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;">/></span></span><br /> -<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;"></lolly<span style="font-weight: bold; color: black;">></span></span></span><br /> - </div> - </div> -</div> - <p><b>Resources</b></p> - <p>How does it compare to Atlas? <a href="http://lollygagframework.com/Articles/LollygagVersusAtlas/Default.htm">Read their thoughts on the matter</a>.</p> - <p><a href="http://lollygagframework.com/Demos/default.htm">Demos</a></p> - <p><a href="http://lollygagframework.com/SampleApplications/Forums/forums.xml">Sample Application</a> -</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=2QC8qukU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=2QC8qukU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=lsoztS0a"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=lsoztS0a" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=WuuxjGjM"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=WuuxjGjM" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=M7Gaypk4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=M7Gaypk4" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>

- <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Nathan Naze and his team at Google have upgraded <a href="http://books.google.com/">Google Books</a>:</p> - <blockquote> - <ul> -<li><strong>Zoom in on text and images.</strong> Here's <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=HARVARD:32044020180790&id=7X-I9105PAkC&pg=PA109#PRA2-PA109,M1">a cool full-page sketch of a ship</a> from an 1898 book on <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=HARVARD:32044020180790&id=7X-I9105PAkC">steam navigation</a>. Looking for something less dated? Perhaps this <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=ISBN1564969584&id=F68COamQRH0C&pg=PA25&lpg=PA25&sig=8k-utjCZ5wwUmWMPlMLIaDjJ4Ig#PPA25,M1">colorful page of a room</a> from <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=ISBN1564969584&id=F68COamQRH0C">a book on interior design</a>. Want a better look? You can now zoom in and out — just click on the <img src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2855/3883/1600/plus.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" alt="zoom in" border="0" height="14" width="14"/> and <img alt="zoom out" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2855/3883/1600/minus.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" border="0" height="14" width="14"/> buttons. Play with it until you find a size you like.</li> - -<li><strong>One book, one web page.</strong> No more reloads! In one-page mode (just click the <img alt="one page" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2855/3883/1600/onepage.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" border="0" height="14" width="9"/> button), pages appear one below the other, like a scroll of paper. For <a href="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/screenshots.html#fullview">full-view</a> books, there's also a two-page mode (<img alt="two page button" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2855/3883/1600/twopage2.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" border="0" height="14" width="19"/>) in which pages appear side by side, just like in a physical book (perfect for <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=ISBN9064503125&id=NkST-eA7uicC&pg=RA12-PA110&lpg=RA12-PA110&sig=oP4PLDRpPGpbo6jBg1qpzOoksjc#PPA51,M2">two-page images</a>). In both modes, you'll be able to use <img src="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/page_nav_previous.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" alt="previous page button" border="0" height="19" width="19"/> and <img src="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/page_nav_next.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" alt="next page button" border="0" height="19" width="19"/> to turn pages.</li> - -<li><strong>Scroll, scroll, scroll your book…</strong> using the scrollbar or your mouse wheel, or by dragging (in most browsers, you'll see a <img src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2855/3883/1600/hand2.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" border="0" height="16" width="17" alt="hand"/>). You can also use the keyboard (try the spacebar, page up, page down, and the arrow keys). Or you can click on a link in the table of contents or your search results to jump right to that page (like <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01581436&id=EM6nHWWQ3TIC&pg=PP10">this photo</a> from the 1906 book <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01581436&id=EM6nHWWQ3TIC"><em>Geronimo's Story of His Life</em></a>).</li> - -<li><strong>This page was made for reading.</strong> We've tried to tidy up the clutter to leave as much room as possible for what's important — the book. We've put all the information about the book in a scrollable side menu. Still not enough room? You can put the screen in fullscreen mode with <img src="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/images/fullscreen.gif" style="padding: 0px; border: 0px" alt="fullscreen button" border="0" height="15" width="17"/>, so you can use the whole window for browsing. Try it with a nice illustrated book of <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=NYPL:33433068198005&id=MPDMpD2w_2gC&pg=PA65#PPP18,M2">Celtic fairy tales</a> or, for some lighter reading, <a href="http://books.google.com/books?vid=ISBN3540212663&id=5FZBS0JH9lkC&pg=PP1&lpg=PP1&ots=uNqKSoMhkt&&sig=MjS0J55JV4LYrKN7z_RvUf-sEx4#PPA49,M1">electromagnetic wave theory</a>.</li> - </ul> - </blockquote> - <p>There are keystrokes here too, such as hitting space to scroll down (moving down smoothly). It is nice to see more and more unification to Google apps these days. When you use Reader it feels like Mail, etc.</p> - <p>One question is, where are the GWT apps? :)</p> - <p><a href="http://books.google.com/"><img src="http://ajaxian.com/wp-content/images/googlebooksearch.png" alt="Google Book Search" border="0" width="580" height="391"/></a> -</p> - -<div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=kpBF2m8t"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=kpBF2m8t" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=KWMuT6ZN"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=KWMuT6ZN" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=5HzTTFHS"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=5HzTTFHS" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?a=eLs8y2a1"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/ajaxian?i=eLs8y2a1" border="0"></img></a></div>]]></content:encoded>
