Major Editor Update - Drag Drop Upload IS HERE!!!Category: estrip
If you are using firefox 3.6+ or Chrome 5+ you no longer need to use the surebert multi file flash uploader. Now you can use the new surebert dropUpload widget, Simply drag and drop whatever files you want to upload from the desktop on the drop files here box.

I used the "drop files here" just fine on firefox - that's very cool! Thank you!
(Didn't work in Chrome on two machines. But maybe there are stupid user problems.)

Estrip Android App Location UpdateCategory: android
The android app now also has a location button you can click to add your current location to the blog you are posting with it. I need to test with it some more, but I pushed the update out so you guys can test with it too if you want.
That and it allows you to move the app to the sdcard if you are running froyo.
You can hit the button multiple times to add new locations to one entry. Say for example on a walk.
Even better with android, you can use the default maps, navigation or lattitude app and share any place with your blog using the built in "share this place" mechanism. This copies more data including the place contact info and name.

I added a location publisher for estripCategory: estrip
When logged into the mobl site, there is a new location button. If you click it, and are using a mobile phone that supplies location data, it will go ahead and load your location into a blog and let you type the title to publish.
You can also just click the location button on the regular mobl publisher
And from the non mobile site publisher for those using it on mobile devices or devices with accurate geolocation like a netbook or ipad.
Unlike facebook, everything on estrip is public so think about that before you publish something you don't want people to know about.
I'll make it do some fancier stuff when I have some more free time. I wanted to do this for years but everyone always thought it was so creepy. Now its practically mundane.
I thought if you collected it all you could start forecasting social occurances like weather. e.g. there is a 40% chance of someone from your social group eating at panos next tuesday, etc. I am sure the folks at facebook and foursquare are already developing that. It must be nice to have so much data to mine.

I switched the default map type to satellite, it seems more interesting that way. Especially at the zoom level I have it at. If you click any of the maps on the journals themselves, they turn into dynamic maps you can move around, change map type, etc.

This seems like a pretty cool idea even though I don't have a mobile device.
In terms of being creepy yeah I think if it did it automaticly it would be. But the user choses to do so..... It is also a nice way (I assume) to let someone know where you are or if you are there live or delayed. What I mean is say I'm at the fair as an example and I take a picture of this huge organ, then I use my phone to automaticly say where I am then you see the location and know I'm at the fair. Then you can post a comment I'll be there in 20 minutes. As opposed to this. I'm at the fair and take pictures and one of them is of a ride that is lit up and then I leave and when I stop to take a picture of the Basicilica and find something to eat I upload the previous picture. Well now when you see the post you know that I'm not at the fair ...............

upload now accepts .jpeg filesCategory: estrip
I made it so the multifile upload now accepts .jpeg files as facebook seems to stupidly export pictures from their galleries with that extension. You can also upload 20 files at time now.
metalpeter - 08/22/10 09:57
Well it used to be 20 but then with the new version it became 10. The most I could ever upload was 11 if I tried 12 they all wouldn't upload (guessing my computer would time out or something I don't understand).
I assumed .jpeg where included since they are one of the many different kind of picture files, but I was wrong, glad they can be uploaded now, that could be why a long time ago (years) why I couldn't up load some photos? Glad for the two updates.

I thought you could always upload 20 at once.

Skipping the stripteasers as they won't let you take bottles into a bar plus guessing they won't hit the stage till late....Not going as the nude bikers but I'm going as someone who depending on your stance is evil but winds up kinda good in the end or maybe he isn't evil but is just used, sorry I forget his exact name but since I can't do Spartacus I went with another starz show....
Alas, like (e:leetee), I work Satday night til 9 or 10 pm and I have to be back at work at 6 am.
I'm going to try to make an appearance if all goes well with work.
I reckon that if I show up, I'll come as "the man who wasn't there"
I ran into the glamorous duo quite randomly a while back, rolling out of Cozumel.
:-)
I am always somewhat surprised that (e:peeps) (non-roswell ones) actually exist in the flesh. heh
Both Ho sisters in one locale? quite the draw, but the cursed responsibilities of parenthood prevent me from making the party. Have fun for me
The Peterazzi will be there but I won't be Ha, Kidding... Have to divert some funds.... I was thinking about going as the Nude Bicyclist Ok I just want some chick to paint me up (may go to see the stripteasers 1st) not really going as the biker......
I've been waiting for the announcement of when the party will be with my fingers crossed. Didn't work. It's on the one night it would be impossible for me to come. I work until 11pm on Saturday night and i have to be back to work by 7am the next day to do a 14 hour shift. Boo. Have fun everyone!!
