Timeline Typo Integration

Posted by hardwarehank, Fri Jan 05 05:03:37 UTC 2007

So, I made it so the Timeline project and javascript libs can now use my custom Typo RSS feed to make pretty timelines. Just did some very simple (but troublesome to debug) modifications of the Timeline and Typo codebases. Trouble was for a while that this…

                      
<?xml ..... ?>

…is apparently not parsable in the Timeline libs. And it throws some unclosed parenthetical exception. That took me a long time to figure out. Lame. Anyway, you can see the result of the integration between blog events and life events here.

Gotta start trading stocks in 30 minutes, then eventually go to bed. I’m such a night-owl.

My Timeline

Posted by hardwarehank, Tue Jan 02 18:38:14 UTC 2007

So today I started a timeline using some really cool software. It’s going to catalog my life as accurately as possible. I think I might add some authentication to it for private events, and make a separate event file for those. Giving away too much is not usually a good idea.

It is now available here, and I will try to make a sweet bit of Camping/Rails/PHP to control the data. Maybe I’ll make a full-fledged MySQL backend for it, allowing you to keep your events in a database rather than flat files.
