Because the extensions are sandboxed, all of the scripts from the extensions run a bit differently than they used to in the previous Kynetx extensions. Without getting into the technical details too much, the previous extensions just injected JavaScript into the page and the new extensions run JavaScript in a sandbox which has access to the DOM but can’t access anything else on the page. Because of this change my retweet app broke since I was using the jQuery loaded by Twitter.com to bring up the new tweet box (I do this because Twitter.com used that library to bind a click event and to trigger that event it has to be from the same library that bound it). Thankfully, with the help of a friend, I was able to get a work around for both Firefox and Chrome’s sandbox environment.

How I did it…

If the app is run not inside a sandbox I can just access the jQuery that Twitter.com loads to open a new tweet box

$("#new-tweet").trigger("click");

From within the Firefox sandbox I can access the page outside of the sandbox

window['$']("#new-tweet").trigger("click");

If I am in the Chrome sandbox I can create a script element that has the JavaScript that I want to execute. Crude, but it works. : )

var trigger_click_script = document.createElement("script");
var fallback = "window['$']('#new-tweet').trigger('click');";
trigger_click_script.innerHTML = fallback;
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(trigger_click_script);

Here is the JavaScript code that I ended up with that gets executed when a user clicks on the retweet button.

// get stuff to retweet
var tweet = $K(this).parents(".tweet-content").find(".tweet-text").text();
var name = $K(this).parents(".tweet-content").find(".tweet-screen-name").text();
 
// build tweet
var retweet = "RT @"+name+" "+tweet;
 
// open new tweet box
$("#new-tweet").trigger("click");
 
// hack for FF sandbox
if ($("#tweet-dialog:visible").length === 0) {
  window['$']("#new-tweet").trigger("click");
}
 
// put tweet in new tweet box
$K(".draggable textarea.twitter-anywhere-tweet-box-editor").val(retweet).focus();
$K("#tweet_dialog a.tweet-button.button.disabled").removeClass("disabled");
 
// hack for chrome sandbox
if ($("#tweet-dialog:visible").length === 0) {
  var fallback = "window['$']('#new-tweet').trigger('click'); ";
  fallback += "window['$']('.draggable textarea.twitter-anywhere-tweet-box-editor').val('"+retweet+"').focus(); ";
  fallback += "window['$']('#tweet_dialog a.tweet-button.button.disabled').removeClass('disabled'); ";
  var trigger_click_script = document.createElement("script");
  trigger_click_script.innerHTML = fallback;
  document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(trigger_click_script);
}

I like this trend of getting rid of submit buttons. Done right I think it makes interfaces cleaner, simpler, and easier. With mobile devices I still think it is better to give a submit button on forms but for desktop versions I love this lack of submit buttons. I find it interesting that Google has kept their search button even when Google Instant is enabled.

That’s all. Just my thoughts on the matter. ; )

I like the design they went with for the UI and it feels good to see a company like Lanyrd create an app that works similarly to what I built about 2 months ago. I decided to put my app interface in the side tray to allow for more controls. The app allows you to hide any tweet based on any word found in the tweet. It also allows you to highlight the tweet if you are interested in particular key words and it remembers your list each time you load the browser.

If you don’t have it, (you really should) you can get it and try it out at http://geek.michaelgrace.org/2011/01/tweet-filter-kynetx-app/

My party stance

The Kynetx app that I built to filter out foul language on Twitter.com has filtered through over 200,000 tweets removing over 4,300 foul words!

When I originally built the app I didn’t think it would get used by enough people to get through that many tweets so quickly! I’m glad I was able to build this app and that others have enjoyed using it. If you would like to try it out you can get it at http://geek.michaelgrace.org/2011/01/foul-fowl-control-kynetx-app-for-twitter-com/

I’m going to tell you all about what that app looks like and what it does but first some background. I use Twitter a lot.

I have really enjoyed the whole experience. I have found over the past 2 years that connecting with people is what makes Twitter great for me.

Tweeting lots every day is easy along with following lots of people. These two actions only require a little typing and clicking buttons. The hard part is following people and listening to them and engaging in meaningful conversation. I read most updates of the 900 something people that I follow and it takes lots of time and effort.

Here are my goals with Twitter:

• Find more interesting people to follow and build meaningful relationships with them
• Spend less time reading tweets that I’m not interested in that have no relevance or are basically spam
• Spend more time engaged in tweets that are relevant, will help me grow as a person, and build meaningful relationships
• Help my friends do the same things listed above

Here are some things that stand in the way of me accomplishing those goals

• Don’t have a way to quantify and report the relevance of a “follow”
• Don’t have a way to quantify the time spent time on Twitter and different Twitter activities
• Don’t have a way to quantify the amount of load a particular follow puts on my  Twitter stream

I want to find more people to connect with but it’s a double edged sword. If I follow more people I increase my chances of finding interesting people to connect with but this same action causes more content to come through my Twitter stream. This makes it harder to stay connected with the people that I have already established a meaningful connection with.

I think an app/service can be created to help me reach all my goals and take care of all the road blocks. This is where My6Sense, TweetStats, SocialToo, Twitter, and Kynetx come in. I envision creating a Kynetx app that

• records how much time is spent on Twitter reading tweets
• what percentage of the tweets I read  are from each follow
• the relevance of Tweets and follows as I read and give feedback

Because a Kynetx app can be deployed as a browser extension it is fairly easy to get this kind of data and report it to a system through a simple API. The server could then take this data and start doing interesting and helpful things with the data. Things like

• make suggestions to un-follow people based on a ratio of load vs quality content created much like SocialToo attempts to do through rules
• build cool looking, informative, and geeky charts like TweetStats
• help me sort Twitter stream based on context similar to what My6Sense does
• suggest people to follow based on the relevance data received from my friends

Just imagine being able to see personal trends of how much time you spend going through your tweet stream. You could also see trends of the percentage of relevant people you are following, who is generating the most load on your stream, who you find the most relevant, and more. Because all of this is based on your actions on Twitter.com and is quantified you could set goals to improve in different areas. Rewards for achieving those goals could be given and the app could give me help along the way. Built correctly and used well, it could be a powerful tool to transform any social network into an astoundingly strong group of friends and acquaintances that are relevant, meaningful, and create much more benefit than cost to build and maintain.

If you like this idea, have suggestions, or have something you want to say, let me know in the comments or tweet me!

There is lots more that I could write about but I think I’ll hold off for now and see what people have to say about this.

What is it?

It’s a keyboard activated search tool for a specific website built to act like the application launcher Alfred App and QuickSilver. I went through each page in the Kynetx documentation site and indexed each page by hand. I didn’t include all pages which I believe makes this a much more powerful search for Kynetx developers. I also assigned key words to each page based on what I thought it should be searchable by. If you have suggestions, let me know because I would love to hear them.

Check out the live demo at http://supersearcher.michaelgrace.org/

If you like it, you are free to use the code in any way that you like. Cheers!

I found Facebook’s “Find Friends” browse page and thought it would be fun to do an experiment with the data contained within. To participate in the experiment download and install either this Firefox or Chrome Kynetx browser extension.

The app will put a button on the Friend Finder page which will allow you to view a graph based on the currently loaded possible friends.

Clicking on the “Show awesome possible friend chart!” button will reveal the awesome possible friend chart.

I will be putting up the general findings soon at http://facebookfriendfinderstats.michaelgrace.org/. :)

At work we have standup meetings each morning to discuss roadblocks and the plan for the day. Often, most of the time is spent relating what is going to be done for the day which isn’t working very well. I want to build an app that each employee would install that would remind them each morning to submit their short list of what they are working on for the day and would show what everyone else is working on for the day. A user could dismiss the promptings for the day on all sites and could see the list anytime by going to a predefined url where the days tasks and road blocks would be listed. This app would probably use a Google spreadsheet to facilitate this functionality because it would be nice to have this information recorded even though it could be done through app variables.

Demo video:

Here are some action shots showing how the app works:

Installing the browser extension and loading a page for the first time. The time happens to be between 6 am and 10 am. You’ll notice that the app runs on whatever url you are currently on. It doesn’t look so great if it happens to be a site that has a lot of crazy stuff going on like Google reader or flash sites.

Once the user submits the day’s standup items the app confirms submission and removes itself from the page

On all pages that the user visits between the hours of 6 am and 10 am a little icon will be annotated in the bottom right corner of the browser window.

When a user hovers over the annotation, it will reveal two action buttons. The list button will show a list of everyone’s submitted standup items for the day. The x button will removed the annotation from the page if it is in the way.

When a user clicks on the list button, the standup items will be listed in a notify and the annotation will remove itself from the current page.

After the first time a user has used the app, it will remember the user’s name so the user doesn’t have to enter it again.

I won’t be sharing the extensions I built for the Kynetx team but I plan on sharing the code along with explinations on www.kynetxappaday.wordpress.com soon. Hope this app has gotten you thinking about ways you could use something similar or maybe completely different apps you could build using Kynetx.

The app is built for the Kynetx team so I wont be sharing the extension with the public but I have no qualms with sharing how awesome it is. The app allows each Kynetx team member to see who on the team has viewed the KRL tagged question on Stack Overflow. A Kynetx team member can then mark that they are currently working on an answer for the question or that they have “passed” on the question. A simple tool to help coordinate the teams efforts in answering the public’s questions about KRL on Stack Overflow.

I’ve noticed recently that I have been hiding the One True Fan bar a lot for various reasons. I really love the bar but I don’t always want to see it, but at the same time I always want it to be there. So… I built a Kynetx app that solves my problem and maybe others will find it useful also.

Minimal One True Fan is a Chrome and Firefox Extension that

1. looks for the One True Fan bar on the page
2. hides the bar
3. takes the checked in status button and places it in the bottom left corner of the page
4. clicking on the status button will bring the bar back

See the Minimal One True Fan Kynetx app and the One True Fan extensions in action!

Download Firefox Extension

Update 01/04/2011

Updated the app to also show the avatar of the current One True Fan of the current site because who doesn’t love to see if they are the One True Fan? : D

1. Start typing the URL so it will auto suggest it
2. Use keyboard shortcut ctrl + alt + backspace

Doing this immediately removed the suggestion from my Chrome history on my cr-48 for Chrome OS

I have decided to make a Kynetx app that helps me with this annoyance and you are free to use it and give feedback (things like, ‘I wish it worked on this site’ or ‘Dude! This is awesome!’).

Example Code

*It is currently only helping on a few sites but I will be adding sites as I run across them and people suggest them.

If you have the extension installed and working, you can see a list of domains that the app is helping you focus on at the end of this post inserted by the extension.

Action shot after:

List of sites this extension is helping on

If you had the extension installed and running properly, you would see this replaced with a list of the sites that the extension is currently helping on

So, because I want to use both and didn’t want to wait for OneTrueFan to fix the problem, I created a simple Kynetx app that runs as a browser extension and fixes the problem if it detects both on the page. : )

• I think Google Chrome rocks.
• So what?
• Who cares about my opinion?
• Proof that I’m right.

I think GOOGLE CHROME ROCKS!

I have been a loong time fan of Mozilla’s Firefox web browser, and for many reasons. Firefox has extensions, is clean, standards compliant, has firebug, and a fun logo. I recently started trying out Google’s Chrome because most of my geek friends were raving about it. … and WOW! Talk about fast and clean and well done! I am very impressed with Chrome. Some would ask, “why not just use Safari since they are both about the same?” While they do use the some open source rendering engine, they offer completely different user experiences. Chrome has done browser extensions right, and by right I mean that it’s easy for both the developer and consumer. No need for restarting the browser after instal, building extensions is the simplest out of IE (shudder)/ Firefox/ Safari, and no toolbars allowed! I have also really enjoyed the way the interface is designed. Chrome has stayed clean, simple, and effective for all of my browsing and development needs.

SOOOO WHAT!?!

WHO CARES ABOUT MY OPINION?!

I admit that I am not the average user. I am a geek that lives in a text editor and in the browser so my opinion is greatly skewed and it is even hard for me to trust that my experience will be similar to those who aren’t freaks of the geek.

HERE’S THE PROOF!

At sunday dinner, my niece was complaining about their “internet” crashing and freezing while working on the computer. “Who’s your internet provider?”, I asked. “NO. No. no. The internet stops working and crashes” she replied while drawing a computer screen sized box with her pointer fingers. Saving the fact that the browser was being confused for the internet for a later blog post, I told her that IE was just a way to display the contents of the web and that she should download Google Chrome and use that instead.

I didn’t explain where to download it, how to use it, or why it would be better. I really didn’t expect her to find it, install it, and actually use it but I was wrong. Just one day later, today, I got a facebook notice from her with a cute little note that not only blew my socks off, but also confirmed my thoughts on why Chrome has been growing in market share.

“Hey thanks for telling me about Google chrome…WAY better than internet explorer :]
Google! :]”

That little message made my day and may be a big step in my niece becoming a geek.

I’m very excited about releasing the next version of my Kynetx application that utilizes a recently released Kynetx action, percolation. This action digs deep into the bowels of the dark search engine pits and pulls out relevant search results.

If you’ve already been using the first version app, you already have the update. The code updated as soon as I pressed the version update button! : ) Now install the app if you don’t already have it and start having fun searching.

One of my co-workers recently tweeted, “I really want to know how I missed this web comic. Hilarious!! http://bit.ly/7das6F“. That got me thinking about how much people do miss from their favorite comic sites or any site on the web for that matter. Of course you can subscribe to RSS and get all their updates but those who valiantly use and keep up with their feeds know how quickly it can become overwhelming. But what about all of the people who like sites or products but don’t know how to set up an RSS reader or who just don’t want to? How do you get your content to those people all the time without them having to type in your URL?

With Kynetx!!

With Kynetx you can customize the users experience on your website AND ANY OTHER WEBSITE YOU DESIRE!!

Are you getting excited yet? Are you listening or paying attention?! Are you thinking about the possibilities??!!!

In this example, if a user really loves the comic “Geek and Poke” why not make the content available to them anywhere they go on the web in unobtrusive manner? In fact, if you do it well, the users will be giddy with the results and love your product even more! It’s a little known secret that people actually like advertising. THEY DO! People love to buy stuff! What people actually hate is irrelevant and irritating ads that are in their faces. I took 3 sites and customized the users experience based on the context that they really enjoy the comic “Geek and Poke”.

• Google.com
• CNET.com
• CNN.com

Here are the after and before photos of what the user will see as they visit these sites.

TLS = Transport Layer Security
SSL = Secure Socket Layer
https = Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure

Private and sensitive information gets sent over the internet all day so what is preventing someone from stealing that information? In order for information to be securely transferred over the internet 2 basics are needed.
1. Confirm server identity
2. Encrypt communication with server

You don’t want to send information to someone who is impersonating the person you actually want to send it to, do you? SSL and TLS provide a way to verify the identity of the recipient. In it’s simplest form, there are many companies that will give people digitally signed certificates vouching for that person saying in essence, “we have checked to make sure this person is who they say they are and we think you can trust them.” When you browse the web, your browser has a list of companies that it will trust to tell you who you can trust. So, when you connect to a server your browser can check their certificate and if it is signed by one of the companies that you trust then your browser will trust it.

Private conversations are good when you are sharing sensitive or private data. You don’t go walking around on the street shouting out your birthday, credit card number, and social security number so why would you do it on the internet? TLS and SSL provide a way for you to have a private conversation with a server so that others can’t “listen in” on your conversation by encrypting the data. Most data on the web is transferred using http but when it is secured using TLS or SSL it is called https.

It’s important to know when you are or aren’t using https when browsing the web to protect your information. Most browsers have visual indicators to show that https is being used. Make it a habit to make sure that your information will be secure before sending or retrieving that data.

THE PROBLEM

Information is flying all around us like debris from a tornado going through a trailer park. Information overload is a real problem now for the average person and it can wreak havoc on a persons productivity and goals. Never before in the history man has there been soo much information available. Experts, books, seminars, awareness: the availability of these are low if not non-existent. We are like little children who have been handed a gun with incredible power but no one is talking about how to safely handle it, and people are getting hurt!

WHAT TO DO

Fortunately for you, if you “shoot yourself in the foot” its your fault! Probably not what you were expecting, but it’s true. You have control over most of the information you subscribe to.

• RSS Feeds
• Television
• Radio
• Email
• Social Networks
• Magazines
• Newspaper

WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH MY BROWSER?

You can control what your Firefox looks like. I have seen too many people who try to browse the web with so many buttons, bars, and add-ons that much of the space for actually viewing web pages is reduced by about a third or more. Take back your browser real estate and surf the web with freedom again!

WHAT CAN I DO?

Here is an example of two extremes.

If the bloated one looks similar to yours or a friends browser then you are in the right place.

To Do:

• Use the Toolbar collapse button to hide the clutter until you need it

• Remove all add-ons you aren’t using all of the time (Spring Cleaning!)
• Hide toolbars (functionality can often be accessed through the application menu)
• Remove buttons that aren’t needed (most have keyboard shortcuts which are faster)

This is really fun because you get to drag and drop buttons where ever you like.

• Hide status bar if you don’t use it (Bottom gray bar)

• Disable “Always show the tab bar”

The real trick is to balance the functionality of add-ons and buttons with space. After many months of trying different configurations, this has been the most effective layout for me.

I use the keyboard shortcuts for the Firebug add-on and the other basic browser buttons like forward, back, refresh, so I have removed all those buttons and add-on bars. I show the status bar on the bottom so I can see if the HTML pages I am coding are validating as strict without running a validator. I also hide the bookmarks bar because I don’t use them very frequently. Everyone uses the web differently which makes Firefox great for many people because it can be customized for their needs. Play around with your layout, reduce distractions, and find what works best for you.

There are a few reasons why your installed add-ons might get marked as incompatible. Sometimes the developer has not changed the install requirements to accept your version. Mozilla suggests to developers that they don’t mark it compatible until they KNOW it is compatible. So, many developers don’t mark their add-ons compatible with beta and alpha releases of Firefox. Another reason an add-on might not be marked as compatible is because it really ISN’T compatible. Running an incompatible add-on can corrupt data in your browser profile and other places on your computer so don’t force add-ons to work unless you are willing to deal with the risks.

Precautions:

• Don’t force add-ons unless you are willing to deal with possible browser crashing and data/profile corruption!
• Backup your profile!
• Be an add-on minimalist! The more add-ons you have, the more that can go wrong… very wrong.
• Backup your system regularly. If you don’t do this already your crazy and you should start yesterday!

How:

To force Firefox to accept all installed add-ons we simply need to tell it in it’s configuration file to ignore incompatibility. It will still check for updates and inform you that add-ons are incompatible, but it will let them run.

Steps:

1. Open Firefox
2. Type about:config into browser bar and press enter
3. Click “I’ll be careful, I promise!” button and chuckle at Mozilla’s developer’s humor
4. Right click on any list item in browser window and select “New” -> “Boolean”
5. Paste extensions.checkCompatibility into alert box input window
6. Select “False”
7. Open add-ons window: Select “Tools” -> “Add-ons”
8. Click “Restart” on yellow notification bar
9. Throw your hands up in the air
10. Shout for joy
11. Spin around in your twirly chair and get back to work
