Colorspace 2.2 Colorspace is a universal color picker for web developers and
designers. The application can be hidden in the task bar and lets you pick colors from anywhere on
your screen. Colorspace is designed as a replacement for Print Screen + Photoshop. Sometimes you
just need to know what color a box has or if it is a gradient and this tool will help you with
that. There is also a history dialog that can be used to create color palettes.
- Teppefall Titanium - High DPI/PPI aware look and feel. Based on the Substance look and feel.

br /In their own wordsbr /br /“We're always building web applications, and sometimes we want
those apps to be able to interact with phone callers. Maybe we want a customer to be able to call
in and get information, or maybe we need to coordinate our employees more efficiently. Before
Twilio, you would have had to learn some foreign telecom programming languages, or set up an entire
stack of PBX software to do this. At which point, you'd say 'aw, forget it!' Twilio lets you use
your existing web development skills, existing code, existing servers, existing databases and
existing karma to solve these problems quickly and reliably. We provide the infrastructure, you
provide the business logic via HTTP, and together we rule the world. Or something.”br /br
/Why it might be a killerbr /br /It enables anybody with a basic HTTP knowledge to come up with
fully-realized voice applications in a smooth fashion.br /br /Some questionsbr /br /How much does
the company charge? Are there different plans available? br /br /What it doesbr /br /Twilio is a
company that intends making the creation of inbound and outbound phone applications an effortless
task. In essence, what the company does is to let you provide your reasoning via HTTP while they
take care of the infrastructure – IE, web development, servers and databases. br
brThe one requisite for using Twilio is being a web developer, as HTTP knowledge is required for
getting the ideas across. No other software or special knowledge is actually required. br brThe
site includes examples of the voice applications which can be created using this approach, and you
can peruse them at will by visiting the corresponding section. br brOn the other hand, pricing is
dealt with using a “pay-as-you-go” philosophy. The company charges a per minute rate
for calls, and a monthly amount for each phone number that is assigned to you. br brIn finishing,
Twilio offers an interesting service that can arouse quite a bit of online interest. Direct your
browser to www.twilio.com to find out more. br /br /Link: a

ScottGu's Blog -

font size="2" face="arial" pLast month I blogged about a target="_blank"
href="http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/09/28/jquery-and-microsoft.aspx"how Microsoft is
extending support for jQuery/a.#160; Over the last few weeks we've been working with the jQuery
team to add great jQuery intellisense support within Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Web Developer
2008 Express (which is free).#160; This is now available to download and use./p h3Steps to Enable
jQuery Intellisense in VS 2008/h3 pTo enable intellisense completion for jQuery within VS you'll
want to follow three steps:/p pustrongStep 1: Install VS 2008 SP1/strong/u/p pVS 2008 SP1 adds
richer JavaScript intellisense support to Visual Studio, and adds code completion support for a
broad range of JavaScript libraries. /p pYou can download VS 2008 SP1 and Visual Web Developer 2008
Express SP1 a target="_blank" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/cc533448.aspx"here/a./p
pstronguStep 2: Install VS 2008 Patch KB958502 to Support quot;-vsdoc.jsquot; Intellisense
Files/u/strong/p pTwo weeks ago we shipped a patch that you can apply to VS 2008 SP1 and VWD 2008
Express SP1 that causes Visual Studio to check for the presence of an optional quot;-vsdoc.jsquot;
file when a JavaScript library is referenced, and if present to use this to drive the JavaScript
intellisense engine./p pThese annotated quot;-vsdoc.jsquot; files can include XML comments that
provide help documentation for JavaScript methods, as well as additional code intellisense hints
for dynamic JavaScript signatures that cannot automatically be inferred.#160; You can learn more
about this patch a target="_blank"
href="http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2008/11/07/hotfix-to-enable-vsdoc-js-intellisense-doc-files-is-now-available.aspx"here/a.#160;
You can download it for free a target="_blank"
href="http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/KB958502/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=1736"here/a./p
pstronguStep 3: Download the jQuery-vsdoc.js file/u/strong/p pWe've worked with the jQuery team to
put together a jQuery-vsdoc.js file that provides help comments and support for JavaScript
intellisense on chained jQuery selector methods.#160; You can download both jQuery and the
jQuery-vsdoc file from the a target="_blank"
href="http://docs.jquery.com/Downloading_jQuery#Download_jQuery"official download page/a on the
jQuery.com site:/p pimg src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step1.png" / /p pSave the
jquery-vsdoc.js file next to your jquery.js file in your project (and make sure its naming prefix
matches the jquery file name):/p pimg src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step2.png" /
/p pYou can then reference the standard jquery file with an html lt;script/gt; element like so:/p
pimg src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step3.png" / /p pOr alternatively reference it
using the lt;asp:scriptmanager/gt; control, or by adding a /// lt;reference/gt; comment at the top
of a standalone .js file.#160; /p pWhen you do this VS will now look for a -vsdoc.js file in the
same directory as the script file you are referencing, and if found will use it for help and
intellisense.#160; The annotated /p pFor example, we could use jQuery to make a JSON based get
request, and get intellisense for the method (hanging off of $.):/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step4.png" / /p pAs well as help/intellisense for
the $.getJSON() method's parameters:/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step5.png" /#160;/p pThe intellisense will continue
to work if you nest a callback function within the method call.#160; For example, we might want to
iterate over each JSON object returned from the server:/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step6.png" / /p pAnd for each of the items we could
execute another nested callback function:/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step7.png" / /p pWe could use the each callback
function to dynamically append a new image to a list (the image src attribute will point to the URL
of the returned JSON media image):/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step8.png" / /p pAnd on each dynamically created
image we could wire-up a click event handler so that when it is pressed it will disappear via an
animation:/p pimg src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step10.png" / /p pNotice how the
jQuery intellisense works cleanly at each level of our code.#160; /p h3JavaScript Intellisense Tips
and Tricks/h3 pJeff King from the Web Tools team a target="_blank"
href="http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2008/11/18/jscript-intellisense-faq.aspx"wrote up a
great post/a earlier this week that answers a number of common questions about how JavaScript
intellisense works with VS 2008.#160; I highly recommend reading it./p pOne trick he talks about
which I'll show here is a technique you can use when you want to have JavaScript intellisense work
within user-controls/partials (.ascx files).#160; Often you don't want to include a JavaScript
library lt;script src=quot;quot;/gt; reference#160; within these files, and instead have this live
on the master page or content page the user control is used within.#160; The problem of course when
you do this is that by default VS has no way of knowing that this script is available within the
user control - and so won't provide intellisense of it for you./p pOne way you can enable this is
by adding the lt;script src=quot;quot;/gt; element to your user control, but then surround it with
a server-side lt;% if %gt; block that always evaluates to false at runtime:/p pimg
src="http://www.scottgu.com/blogposts/jquerynov/step11.png" / /p pAt runtime ASP.NET will never
render this script tag (since it is wrapped in an if block that is always false).#160; However, VS
emwill/em evaluate the lt;script/gt; tag and provide intellisense for it within the
user-control.#160; A useful technique to use for scenarios like the user control one.#160; Jeff has
even more details in his a target="_blank"

Techdirt -

Mobile data and web use has grown by leaps and bounds over the past year or two. One new stat says
mobile data revenues are growing a
href="http://www.moconews.net/entry/419-ofcom-report-mobile-data-revenues-growing-five-times-faster-than-voice/"five
times faster than voice/a (albeit from a much smaller base), while Facebook recently said it has a
href="http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=38212737130"15 million active mobile users/a. Some
operators are trying to capitalize on this interest by deploying transcoders that take standard
desktop pages and transform them into something understood by more basic phones' web browsers and
that can be displayed on their small screens. That's all well and good, since users often complain
about the differences between the mobile web and the "real web", and their inability to surf the
same sites on their phone as they do on their PC, although the transcoders often do a pretty poor
job of making sites very friendly to mobile users. br /br / One way around this is for web
developers to create mobile-specific versions of their site, so they have more control over what's
presented to mobile users, and many use auto-detection so that both mobile and PC users can access
the relevant content at the same URL. So enter Verizon Wireless, with its a
href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20040701/1545223.shtml"long history/a of really grasping the
mobile web, which has now a href="http://wapreview.com/blog/?p=1837"deployed a transcoder/a. The
problem is that the transcoder breaks much of the auto-detection used by mobile web developers,
resulting in their work to create mobile sites being rendered useless for Verizon users, who are
then served a transcoded version of their PC site. Verizon and its vendor, Novarra, say the
transcoder partially follows a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/ct-guidelines/"guidelines/a being worked
on by the W3C to cover transcoders -- the process for which started after another Novarra install,
at Verizon parent Vodafone, a
href="http://mobhappy.com/blog1/2007/06/06/vodafone-uk-doing-a-lovely-job-of-supporting-the-mobile-web-by-breaking-it/"caused/a
similar problems. It's worth pointing out that Novarra has a representative on the W3C committee
working on the guidelines, so they should be familiar with them. It's also worth mentioning that
Sprint rolled out a similar transcoder earlier this year, however, they responded to feedback from
the mobile web community and a href="http://wapreview.com/blog/?p=536"changed it/a to avoid
breaking auto-detection and other problems. br /br / On one hand, it's hard to get frustrated with
Verizon for finally taking some positive steps to make the entire web available to its mobile
users, even if transcoders don't always deliver the best results. On the other, it's particularly
annoying to see them think that the way to do this is to undo much of the work done by web
developers and content providers to make their content better for mobile users -- not to mention
it's disingenuous for Verizon and Novarra to suggest they're following the W3C guidelines, as not
only are they a work in progress, but forging user-agents and breaking auto-detection contravenes
them. In any case, for Verizon, it's hard to see how providing users with a lackluster mobile web
experience will help grow its data business. Frustrating users with poorly transcoded versions of
sites, rather than versions that have been thought through by developers for mobile users, seems a
poor choice. And if they really want to unleash the "desktop" web on their users, why not offer
them something that does a good job of transforming it for mobile, like better browsers such as a
