I’ve been slowly tweaking both Cardigan Bay and ThoughtStorms wiki in the last few months As you can see, there some slight changes. Most obviously the NavBar is starting to gain some significant functionality. In addition to typing the name of a page and hitting Go, to go to it, you can also type a […]

Leaving Quora
If you’re wondering why my Quora account seems to have been “deactivated”, that’s because it has. I’ve left. To do something more useful with my life. Full story here : http://exquora.thoughtstorms.info/
A Test of Mind Traffic Control
Today I managed to screw up my todo.txt file that I use with Mind Traffic Control. I had to recreate it from some backups that weren’t quite as up-to-date as I needed them to be. And I got a lot of duplication in the file. And obviously items that had been done are now back […]
Cardigan Bay Screenshots

The Lower-Case Mistake

Cardigan-Bay Early 0.0.3
Cardigan Bay development is slow, but continuing. It’s starting to look a bit more respectable (I’m so NOT a CSS programmer, but I have to do something) Get the latest : Release Cardigan-Bay Early 0.0.3 · interstar/cardigan-bay This release is largely just bug fixes and cleaning up the UI etc. But that makes a massive […]
Backlinks in Cardigan Bay
People seem to be very excited about Roam Research at the moment. I’m sure it has many qualities (including a decent mobile client). But I’m slightly surprised to realize that one thing that fans seem to find very useful (and almost miraculous) is the automatic back-linking. Ie, the ability to see what pages link to […]
Mind Traffic Control : Site Going Down
I’m going to close down the Mind Traffic Control site on Google App Engine. The online app has been dead for some time. While I’m very happy with my command-line version which I’m using every day. The only reason the site is still up on GAE is for any old users to export their data. […]
