What we really need is for FireFox to allow us to have totally separate FireFox windows so we could be logged into a different set of Yahoo, Google, Twitter or other accounts in each window. The reason we need this is that some of us log into client accounts at Google or Yahoo and when we do we lose our log-in status at sites like Delicious, Flickr and MyBlogLog and what we have automated stops running and our Avatars don't show up for the activity that is related to our primary persona.
With or without separate windows, we still need a faster way to get logged in as a particular persona across multiple sites. Perhaps there could be an app that we could configure with the sites for each persona that checks status or logs the current accounts out and then logs the selected persona in. Although it would be great to be able to work in different personas simultaneously, switching between them quickly would be the next best solution.

Request:
1. Improved Ren'Py-specific WYSIWYM code editor.
2. Experimental Reverse To-Do list (added entries are checked, un-checking = rename entries then re-insert priority + position; preferably multi-level and possessing Tree-List's features)
3. Procrastinator Checker (don't really know what it's called but you know that jail cell wall numbering system where the first 4 numbers are "I" signs and the 5th number is a \ over those 4 signs? Something like that except when you mark the 5th number, the entry gets deleted. Set up how many numbers passed before deleting the entry. Optional: typing p1 right after the entry = automatic 20-50 numbers before deletion. typing p2 = 15, p3 = 10, p4 = 5. Similar to RTFM new syntax way of adding entries)-Paul Keith (November 25, 2009, 05:15 PM)
The proofreader applies many of its grammar rules by default. These extra options find patterns of poor writing style:
- Bias language may offend or alienate different groups of readers.
- Clichés are overused phrases with little reader impact.
- Complex phrases are words or phrases with simpler every-day alternatives.
- Diacritical marks are accents and marks attached to letters in some nouns and words borrowed from other languages. This option helps restore these marks in your writing.
- A double negative is one negative phrase followed by another. The negatives cancel each other out, making the meaning hard to understand.
- A hidden verb is a verb made into a noun. These often need extra verbs to make sense.
- Jargon phrases are foreign words and phrases that only make sense to certain people.
- Passive voice obscures or omits the sentence subject. Frequent use of passive voice makes your writing hard to understand.
- Phrases to avoid are wishy-washy or indecisive phrases.
- Redundant phrases can be shortened by removing an unneeded word.
Ignored Phrases
You may add a phrase to the ignore list by typing it into the text field and clicking Add. Click to remove a phrase from the ignore list. A phrase is one or more words and the ignore list is case-sensitive.
Thank you to Paul and April. I'll check out these solutions. April, I replied to your suggestion at FriendFeed. I am not geek enough to figure out how to create additional profiles. I'm hoping you might lend me a hand?
Programmers don't realize how much easier they have it - normal PC users are not adept and command lines or knowing where what is on the hard drive. Oh I wish I had more geek in me so I could do what I need.-GrowMap (November 29, 2009, 02:14 PM)
Here's a small one:
What about a program that sits in the system tray and lets you configure 2 colors and a numeric range. Essentially you are setting two ends of a range, a min and max value, and a color associated with each end of the range.
At any time you could double click to type in a new current numeric value, and it would adjust the desktop background color to a blend between the min and max of the range and between the two colors.
The idea: You could set one color like blue that you really like on your desktop, and one, say Red, that you really dislike. Then you set the range to indicate for example your weight if you are on a diet, or a min and max # of pages you have to read a book each day. So when you deviate from your goal, the background will be something you really dislike.. might serve as a nice motivation.-mouser (December 04, 2009, 04:14 PM)

Here's another idea: Image Aligner
I sometimes have a few screenshot images or cropped screenshot images, and i want to combine them into one, usually by aligning them in a vertical row, or horizontal row -- sometimes by aligning into a grid. And then saving new combined image.-mouser (December 09, 2009, 07:06 PM)
Firefox Plugin Idea:
A plugin which shows a panel below the main window which shows all <!-- --> html comments on the current page.
I think it would yield some very interesting discoveries.
A nice bonus feature would scan for curse words in these comments and show a count in red, to aid in finding fun discoveries.-mouser (November 28, 2009, 06:04 AM)

I am dying to do some coding but I would need some pointers on making this app since I've never done anything of this sort. Kindly tell me what I need to know for making this and how should I go about it.

PS I am aware that updates of existing programs are not allowed in NANY 2010, but entering the NANY is not my aim. My aim WAS to provide a lowpriced ToDo tool and see what happened. My aim IS NOW to re-cycle my efforts and create a FREE ToDo application and see how many people would like to use it, if it is freeware. My guess is that it may very well turn out to be a newly written program (which could be allowed to the NANY) but I will leave that decision to DonationCoder. But at the very least, the program could become a freeware program.-Marcel25 (December 15, 2009, 06:12 AM)
I am particularly interested in feedback concerning these questions:
- Most ToDo programs have checkboxes, do you really need them in a ToDolist?
(I feel that if the item is done it should be removed, so why a checkbox)-Marcel25 (December 15, 2009, 06:12 AM)
- How could the planning part of my desktop application be improved?-Marcel25 (December 15, 2009, 06:12 AM)
- Would you like to have the day planning available in the mobile app as well?-Marcel25 (December 15, 2009, 06:12 AM)
- I plan 100% digital but I stil prefer to print the items for Today on paper,
but being green means you should not print anything. Any suggestions?-Marcel25 (December 15, 2009, 06:12 AM)

So i guess for me i like the idea of multiple checklists, where i can check each item off a list until that list is complete, and then file that list away into storage.-mouser (December 15, 2009, 08:03 AM)
I may not be a typical user, but i never use due dates on a todo list -- i use a todo list more for things that i want to get through as soon as possible.
I do like checkboxes though, because it's useful to see what you've done and how much you've accomplished, at least until you are ready to remove it completely after some time.

If there is anyone out there, who might have a good idea, unique, one that is useful and would be popular... and would like to form a PARTNERSHIP and we'll create something together? i.e. you come up with the idea(s) and I'll do the coding... Then I am up for that!
It'll be a partnership effort (assuming thats allowed????)
Probably best to PM me if anyone is interested???-awopbamboo (December 03, 2009, 01:49 AM)
