The Crunchies 2007 rule : One ballot per user per day

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

Vote for Atlassian in the Crunchies

Done !

the Crunchies 2007 rules

Everyone is invited to vote for their favorite Crunchies winners. One ballot per user per day will be counted in the final vote. The Crunchies Committee reserves the right to discard any and all votes that it reasonably determines to be fraudulent or submitted by bots or other computer-generated voting applications. There are no fees to vote.

why one ballot per user per day ?

Anyway, it should be “one ballot per user per day per category” !

Why not let voters register and cast just 1 vote ! ?

Paul’s Journal: in reply to “bloglines sucks”

Luckily or unlucky, depending on your perspective, I took some time this afternoon away from my family to read my feeds. For now the bug^H^H^Hfeature in Bloglines of showing edited posts has been fixed. I’ve have simply turned it off for all users.

Just because one-user (even though The Scoble) shouted.. how can something be simply turned off for all users ?

_Maybe_ the feature should have been turned off just for Scoble’s feed only !

Contact « Automattic

Submitted! - Thank you! Your bits are flying through cyberspace towards me as you read this. I’ll get back to you ASAP.

It would have been nice to see a flag (cc me) or better-yet-a-statement “You will get a copy of this mail”

Also, the statement “You can also give us a call at (877) 273-8550″ needs to be clarified

Am in Singapore.

What is the time zone attribute so that I do not wake up someone in the middle of the night/day - depending on when WordPress folks churn code :-)

Jive Talks of Jive Software contains we eat our own dog food - too missing

Tuesday, December 25th, 2007

0) At http://www.jivesoftware.com, the link next to Jive Software News is http://www.jivesoftware.com/news/wp-rss2.php [ where is the search box @ photomett.net ? ]

Jive Software’s mantra seems to be “What’s next in collaboration” - It is the TITLE of the home page

1) Is it a question or a statment ? not obvious!

2) Why am I interested in jive software ? 1) My company’s name is listed as a “business partner” on the home page 2) Am the developer founder of collatodo and a 2008 goal for me/collatodo is collatodo will be a finalist in Jolt Awards 2008 in category Collaboration Tools

3) Why is jive software’s products not a finalist in the Jolt Awards Collaboration Tools category ?

4) I do not see a explaining clearly the differences between various products ?

5) When an email is entered at the bottom of the home page in the field “Newsletter signup”, the page refreshes. But it is not obvious whether the email has been accepted! There was no “success message”

6) At the bottom of Jive Talks: is

Jive Talks is powered by Clearspace out of our development community, Jivespace. We use Openfire and Spark daily to communicate with one another with instant messaging. We proudly support our XMPP open-source community, Ignite Realtime. We use Jive Forums to provide crucial customer support. In other words, we eat our own dog food.

include a “too” and link to WordPress :-)

7) Am not able to logon to Jive Software Support. Waiting for a reply..

8 ) Go to that link.. On the top right is a phone number and below is “click to email + red-dot + offline”
-> mouse over on click to email and
-> text becomes “click to chat + green-dot + online” !
-> freedback to jive software - check that !

We’re simpatico. I hear you loud and clear.
