Ubiquity 0.5 is out!

If you currently have and older version of Ubiquity installed for Firefox, it won’t automatically update since it would break a lot of other commands in the wild. If that’s ok with you, you can download Ubiquity 0.5 at Planet Ubiquity.

Of course, mine broke, too, and I just updated it! Whoo!

I updated my Ping.fm Ubiquity command to use the new parser. Others should also be able to localize the command if they want to do so*. The old version of the command is still up just in case some issues pop up in this version of the command.

There are still some tweaks (and maybe some other features) I want to put in but this is it for now. Time for me to get some sleep. It’ll be a busy day at work later!

–

*Well, not now, but probably in the future as:

“Community commands (those hosted on individual servers, locally, or on the herd), however, cannot be localized at this time.”

Maybe soon…

In one of my projects, I had to look for certain objects using certain qualifiers: ID, Name, ID & Name, etc… Without optional parameters (Hello C# 4.0!), I ended up with copying & pasting whole blocks of code: initializing, filtering, returning the result, error handling, etc. I wondered if there was an easier solution to that and then it hit me! LINQ & delegates!

Just something I said a while ago to Oyen on drawing…something I have to keep in mind myself.

Don’t censor what you think. Don’t throw away any ideas, just sort and archive. No matter how bad you think you draw, just do it. Pick up styles that you like and try to copy them. Explore other styles & copy them again. Along the way, you’ll keep a certain style that’s uniquely you.

I should really be carrying my Moleskine notebook and a few pens around…
