Dashboard Widgets
Widgets for your OS X Dashboard.
My first attempt at a Dashboard Widget, allows browsing of the blogosphere via popular blog search engine Technorati.
Only tag and cosmos queries are supported so far; I can’t get the free-text search working yet.
If the graphics looks familar, it’s because they are. It’s basically just a modification of Apple’s RSS feed example widget. I haven’t bothered with the graphics at all.
WordPress Plugins
Plugins for the popular open source blogging software WordPress.
A quick and dirty WordPress widget, based on Ben Coleman’s Flickr Badge widget, that shows images from a given Plogger RSS feed. There aren’t many options, but it works (you should be able to see the live version on the sidebar of this blog).
This widget uses the lastRSS library. It is set to cache the feed for one hour (I should probably make that an option).
ActionScript 3 code
For Flash / Flash / AIR devs
A little library of utility classes, including date/time formatting a la strftime(), a Lorem Ipsum generator, string manipulation modelled after PHP/Perl, and an Inspector class that allows you to deep-search for display objects.
This library will grow. It’s all licensed under LGPL so you can use it in commercial projects. Hosted on RIAForge. API docs here.
