Building Data-Driven Flash Movies

Building Data-Driven Flash Movies 08/05/2002 10:45 PM
Contrary to what you might think, Flash isn't just all tweens and motion blurs. The application comes with powerful data-retrieval capabilities, which allow you to hook your Flash movie clips up to a database (or any other external data source) and dynamically build movie clips that are easy to update and modify. Find out more, in this rough guide to the data-driven Flash universe.

Newer, Smaller Flash Cards: C-Flash

Newer, Smaller Flash Cards: C-Flash 03/14/2005 06:03 PM

Pretec Electronics Corporation, apparently unaware that more than eight competing formats already exist in this market, has developed a new flash memory card called the C-Flash. Smaller than a dime, Pretec seems to be gambling on the "hope your customers lose your product and don't learn from their mistakes" business model. Cards with capacities up to 1GB will be available by June, and they're sampling them in mobile phones, which is just about the only place I'd want to see one. Honestly, though, there comes a point (perhaps when you require magnification equipment) when it's just too small. A note to these companies with the perpetual smaller-is-better mentalities: Just because I might one day be able to carry all of my media collection as well as the Library of Congress on a card the size of an eyelash doesn't mean I'll want to, dig?

While on the topic of Flash Memory formats, now seems like a good time to mention LIVEdigitally's Flash Card roundup, wherein they break down the Flash Jungle into small, manageable pieces.

Test-Driven

Test-Driven 07/05/2004 10:23 PM

I started reading Kent Beck's Test-Driven Development: By Example over the weekend.  Tim Bray menti oned the book a while back and his impression of TDD differed from mine so I figured I was overlooking something.  Boy, I sure was.

I thought TDD (Test-Driven Development) was just development with a strong emphasis on tests.  It's more than that.  What threw me off was the word 'development' which encompasses the entire development process including design, implemention, evolution, etc.  The core gem of an idea behind TDD impacts the design phase most heavily and it's uncovered in rather tedious detail by Kent Beck.  Tedious yet startling is what I felt.

The simple idea is this:

Design software by writing tests first.

By 'software', I mean services, frameworks, modules, components, and objects.

Since tests are written before the module being tested is written, the experience of writing of the test drives the module's designing process.  More importantly, you are looking at the API, of the module being designed, from the API client's perspective.  Net result is higher quality API design.

While TDD during the design process is enough of a benefit for engineers to put into use immediately, TDD has problems because test cases are software and there are maintenance cost associated with them.  Having a tool like Eclipse helps but much more is needed to help the engineers document the tests, keep track of them, and reuse as needed.

I think a visual tool that lets engineers drag and drop tests into test suites for various purposes like release testing, runtime testing, diagnostic testing is essential.  TDD also encourages refactoring through out the development process which calls for more flexible source control system than CVS.

Light-Driven Music Box

Light-Driven Music Box 03/22/2005 04:46 PM

WMMNA tells us of the Circular Optical Object Locator, a light-based music box of sorts created by David Merrill and Tim Hankins. A transparent disc sits above a group of six colored lights, each able to represent a different sound or instrument. By placing opaque squares on the disc and rotating it, a video signal captured by an overhead camera is transformed into the appropriate sound based on what light it sees. Move the squares closer to the center and the pitch might change. Video and more pictures await you on the project's site.

User-driven integration

User-driven integration 02/18/2004 11:59 AM
Tim Hodson's LibraryLookup bookmarklet broke when his library upgraded its OPAC. So he fixed it:

Have used your lookup many times, until our library service started to use a new OPAC! Talis Information systems have released a new OPAC which is called Talis Prism. For a while I thought my lovely lookup would never work again, but I have recently discovered (by changing their post form variables to gets with the marvellous firefox browser and a web developers toolbar) that a get version of their page works just as well.

Thanks Tim! I love to see users hacking their library systems this way. I've taken the URL pattern that Tim figured out and added it to the build your own bookmarklet service; Talis Prism now becomes the twelfth supported OPAC. I can no longer keep up with the static lists that I originally compiled in order to seed this project. But I'm always on the lookout for new patterns -- like the one Tim has provided -- that enable users to generate their own bookmarklets for some previously unsupported class of OPAC system. ...

Test-driven development

Why test-driven development?

The more technical aspect of XP involves a method known as test-driven development (TDD) or test-first development. So what kind of bizarre creature is this and why would any sane individual want to try it?

The answer is that it is one of the sanest things you can do. It makes your programs work better, and it feels much better. -- Dagfinn Reiersol

Observant people will notice that adodb and the recently released date library have extensive test suites. I don't know whether this is test-driven development, but it's just common sense to have automated tests. The dark secret of automated testing occurs when you are doing GUI programming. Most automated testing of GUI's, even web-based ones don't work well, because even a minor change in font sizes could invalidate your test results.

Surging Net Driven Sales

Surging Net Driven Sales 10/28/2003 11:07 PM
A spring 2003 survey indicates that more than ever, people are turning to websites to make their purchasing decisions -- regardless of whether they actually purchase online, or purchase their goods in person.

Over half of the respondents (55%) indicated that they had immediate purchase intents. 11% immediately bought online, 6% immediately bought offline. Of the remainder, 21% indicated that they would buy within 48 hours, and 17% within the week.

Now more than ever, it is clear how important it is for businesses to be accessible online -- even if they do not sell or deliver services online; if they can't find what they want to know from and about you, then the odds are that they will find it from your competitor.

New Generation Of Entrepreneurs Not
Driven By Money Alone 09/27/2004 12:29 AM
Michael Clouser writes "The number of college entrepreneurs is growing, but they are driven by something different, rather, they see technology as a hobby, and starting companies as self-satisfaction, rather than to make a bunch of money. Also, the number of college entrepreneurship courses continues to rise, despite the bubble burst." While I think it's great to hear stories suggesting more people are starting companies for the love of what they're doing, rather than simply the economic opportunity, these things do tend to go in a cycle. The reason people claim they're starting companies to do what they love is because not too many startups have been cashing out over the past few years. Should the cashing out part pick up some more, and you can bet that the quick startup flippers will be back in no time.
