Twitter

After using twitter for around 8 month total and around 2 month using twitter really much I wrote this small report to help others with twitter. For me twitter became the most important social network. It offers so many opportunities to get to know others with the same interests.

Bux.to

Bux.to is the most famous PTC service on the web, they pay you for visiting advertises. I tried their service on my own and I thought about even investigating in their program but the I found out some facts about their services I had not thought about before. That is the reason why I decided to leave their service and why I do not sign up with any other PTC service anymore. Keep in your mind most of those PTC sites are based on the idea of an referral system, therefore there are only a view who tell the real truth about those systems, as most try to reach more and more referrals instead of marking the things they bother with. So I did some researches and wrote this report to inform my readers why I do not recommend investigating in those PTC services, also they might pay out in short term.

Profusehost.net – Moderator

Jan_J — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 21:50:19 +0000

Profusehost.net is the free webhosting service from psychz.net. During the time I was hosted on their servers they offered a lot of features other hosts do not offer to their free clients, like ssh access, ruby on rails and even python. It was a great time and I also became Moderator in their forum to help John the Administrator. But then one time the server disappeared, I contacted the staff at psychz.net and they told be that they had to replace the server and that all those features I came for would not be available on that new server. This decision made me very sad, so I canceled my job as an Moderator in their forum and asked John to write me a review about my work. So here it is the reputation I got (click here)! So here it is the recommendation I got (click here)!

ipaper

Jan_J — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 11:08:14 +0000

Now as I finished my blog, I want to present a new feature to you. The seamless pdf viewer: “ipaper” developed by scribd and not by Apple as you may thought. ipaper is a whole new way to present documents, no matter what kind of documents .pdf, .xls or .doc . They developed a nice flash application which renders all these documents to a special flash based format. But there is one thing most people do not like about this document viewer, that is the style.

You can not integrate such a flash application in a webpage without loosing either style or functionality.

I thought about this issue for quite a while because in my opinion ipaper is the perfect combination between print and web for professional publishing on the web. So, as I designed my movie trailer siteduring that time I came up with the idea why not integrate ipaper into lightbox ? It would be the perfect combination, because people can read the documents in fullscreen mode while the page layout is still the same. You only need a single link like:

To integrate ipaper within your website, but apart any other solution it also looks really great. By the way the document is called “Car negie Mech” published by http://www.me.cmu.edu/ .

Do you like this way of presenting documents ? Do you want to add it to your site as well ? It is really simple and can even be done in Wordpress. You only need a modified version of Lightbox or simply you need mediabox from Iaian7, it is a already modified version and fits my needs perfectly.

So I am going to use this feature to present my works on this blog. If you have any ideas how to optimize the ipaper integration feel free to leave a comment.
