    MassBadger

    MassBadger – “A shopping page for Badges of IMVU Developers”. After about three days of work the project started and is now in some kind of Beta stage. There might follow some additions, as there already did (e.g. Ajax-based search).

    First, I added all badges from any developers that I found on badge directory lists on the net (of course – only those who had the autogrant-feature enabled). Unfortunately, but understandable, some felt this was a step too far. Since then badges will only appear if confirmed by their owner. To do this you have to go to the MassBadger Panel and click the confirm button there. If you do not see your badge in the appearing list you can still contact me (as described on that page then). For verification to access the MassBadger Panel I use IMVU as OpenID Provider. This means you neither have to share your password with me nor having to create a new login. The easiest way is to make sure you are already logged in into IMVU when trying to verify.

    Badges will be added on request. A payment (credits) is not necessary but welcome. You can see the statistics of successful grants inside the panel for each badge. If you own badges on multiple accounts and want to have them located in one Panel, contact me as well.

    The ones that remain on the unconfirmed state at the end of June will be removed permanently from the project. So there is no need to inform me of taking a badge down that has not been confirmed yet and therefor is not visible at the moment. Neither profitable ads nor other annoying popups etc. will be placed on the page as it should remain as a choice for easy and relaxing shopping for badges.

    Features planned for future:

    • Integration of a detail view for each badge – if possible – including all badge details and owner links
    • Integration of a twitter account for latest adds
    • Figuring out the idea of tiny contests like: Top Given-out badge in month/week
    • more to come…

    Eclipse PDT and Subversive 

    Since this page helped me to get it finally work on Eclipse PDT 2.0, Eclipse 3.4.1 (All-in-one) I recently had problems with eclipse’s connectivity issues. This means I got “network is down: create” on every single try to connect to an update site or after adding a new repo to the package list. The solution was quite simple: Updated Java on Vista.

    To get Subversive working add the following URL to the Help -> Update sites page:

    http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/

    After the Subversive Packages are downloaded and installed (I choose all packages listed there without Sources) it is ready-to-go. Just wait, one thing still doesnt work for me: SVN+SSH via Privatekey. Its always say authentication failed… still not have any solution for this… If it actually works with Subeclipse? I dont know.

    Why Subversive and not Subeclipse?

    Good Question. The web says there are not much differencies and also pointing to another solution for SVN in Eclipse -> Tortoise SVN which is also available as plugin.

    The final question might be: Why isnt there any SVN Package included in the Eclipse “All-in-one” Version? (as stated by fusenigk.de/bl0g)

    Re-Blogged: Google 

    Just to make sure this gets never forgotten. Google has its eastereggs and aprilfools every year and besides that they are keeping the versions e.g. of the “translations” into klingon language or leetspeak.

    Just a few (I’m quite sure there are even more) pages:

    Other special search pages:
