i have a new minor version i've been playing with and i tweaked the process detection for explicit rules a little; it should be up in a week or so - there reallly is no excuse for it missing programs you have explicit rules for so if it continues to have the problem let me know and we'll get it fixed.

http://www.techcrunc...-at-google-payments/

A few weeks ago here on Techcrunch we revealed more information about Google’s new payments system along with some screenshots of how it looks and works. One of the questions at the time was what Google would do about buyers being able to check a sellers reputation before making a purchase. We can now reveal that Google have built a reputation system that allows buyers to rate sellers and leave comments.

From Ralph Koster's reliably good blog (http://www.raphkoster.com/):
Amy Jo Kim has a great presentation from ETech called Putting the Fun in Functional that not only articulates how to use some of the fundamental building blocks of games for other purposes, but calls out in stark form what some of those principles are.
This is valuable because often, we take them for granted — when really, we should be focused very strongly on making sure these fundamentals are nailed correctly. (Which echoes a blog post that I read this morning on a blog by Kathy Sierra that Amy Jo pointed to as well — but really, you should read that whole blog too)…
Many of them boil down to forms of feedback, but critically, there’s two important forms of user expression as well: customization, and the ability to give fedback to one another, creating a social context.

a little diagram on a napkin that explains concisely how modern software development works. In the grand finale, I circle one of the little scribbles buried deep in the entire convoluted process and proudly proclaim ‘And that is what I do!”. This admittedly selfish exercise usually keeps everyone involved merrily entertained until dessert arrives.

Living Room / Sites about software and technology for the Visually Impaired
« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2006, 10:27 PM »
I know we have quite a few people on this forum interested in accessibility and technology for visually impaired, etc.
Anyone have any sites they like?

Someone emailed me recently about this site: http://www.axistive....lity.jsp?site=vision

It has some articles on screen readers and new hardware, etc.

Axistive Assistive Technology News Portal offers free news, articles, product reviews and all product and vendor information of assistive technology devices.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Startup on task bar and sys tray bug
« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2006, 10:03 PM »
by default screenshot captor will attempt to auto-select the window that was currently active when you captured the screen.  so what you are doing is taking advantage of this - by hitting crop it is cropping to the active window.

ps. you can configure a screenshot capture hotkey to explicitly capture the active window if you want to save yourself a step.

SO, the cases where you are saying it "fails" to select the right sized region are probably cases where you are not actually "in" the active window.  so to do what you want, just make sure the window you care about is active (selected) at the time of the capture.

« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2006, 09:38 PM »
I'm sorry you are having troubles.
If it's any consolation we are going to be simplifying things in the near future.
So your struggles are in some ways helping others in the future :)

Having said that, I hope you will bear with us and not give up so that we can learn from your troubles.  If you don't give up I will help you until you get it figured out - you can always email me ([email protected]) for help.

1) When you visit that license key page (https://www.donation...r.com/Keys/index.php), it should recognize you by your forum id, as shown in the first picture, and offer you some license key links.  If it doesn't, perhaps you have cookies in your browser disabled and it can't recognize you?  If so, you need to turn them on!

2) After you click on one of those links you should be given a nice long license key starting with *r1...  As the instructions say in the second screenshot you just select this and copy it to clipboard, then go to the about box of the program and click the button to enter the license key.

See screenshots for more help.  And let me know if you get stuck.

Afterwards, we used the user ratings to compute the similarity between the artists. Essentially, for each pair of artists, we counted the number of users that rated both artists highly to determine the similarity. This operation gave us the artist-artist similarity graph. In the image below, we show the clustered adjacency matrix of the graph. The blocks you see in the middle of the picture are similar groups of artists. (In fact, this is how we got the color for each artist in the final picture.)

Site/Forum Features / Re: The new forum is up!!
« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2006, 02:53 PM »
My only comment, besides that the new feel is kind of neat, is to ask where did the "recent posts" section that used to be at the bottom of the page go?  I feel kind of lost without it!

thanks for catching that - didn't realize it was turned off.  it's on now.

PLUS, you'll also now find links at the top to huge pages of recent posts and even recent topics (new feature i added) - very useful for catching up.

Site/Forum Features / The new forum is up!!
« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2006, 01:57 PM »
What do you guys think of the new forum look and feel and features?

I want to thank brotherS, jgpaiva, vegas, momonan, and everyone else in the irc channel who helped test it.
there may be a few things i still have to tweak, but it seems to be working well.

Make sure you check out the super revamped Supporter Yearbook, which is now quite fun to browse.

Let me know if you run accross any anomolies.

Suggestions are welcome as always.


note that it took me a couple of days to get used to the changes in look but i hope you will agree after you adjust that it is mostly a welcome improvement.

General Software Discussion / desktop earth wallpaper

Desktop Earth is a wallpaper generator for Windows. It runs whenever you're logged on and updates your wallpaper with an accurate representation of the Earth as it would be seen from space at that precise moment.
Images are created from high-resolution textures (2560x1280) so it's perfect for that QSXGA display - but they work on anything, even on SVGA.
There is an image for every month to accurately depict snow and foliage changes, and the night view is simply stunning.
The imagery is based on NASA's Blue Marble Next and Earth's City Lights.
