This blog thing is getting to be too clunky. I need something better.

Anyway, while I ponder what to do with that, and with my inability to keep this thing updated, let me point you at a little app I've been spending some time with: a note-taking application that talks to desktop couch.

Whoops, the bread is ready, give me a minute.

Where was I? Ah yes! I've been fooling around with a note-taking application that talks directly to desktopcouch.

Well, not directly, because I hadn't realized, until today, that that was possible. I'll be turning it into a CouchApp tomorrow!

Anyway, a screenshot:

unote

you can, obviously, grab the source.

Things to note (heh, heh):

  • the code is EXPERIMENTAL. What does that mean? It means I am experimenting. This is not quality code. This has no tests.

  • right now, it can and will mangle your tomboy notes formatting. I have some XSLTs in the tree that seem to work, but even they aren't integrated.

  • did I mention it has no tests? and is in flux?

  • The name will change. I've been calling it "unote", to call it something, but the name is wrong.

  • It is not python code. There is python code, but this app is mostly javascript and html5 and stuff.

  • I have no graphical design skills. If it looks ok, it's by accident.

Have I scared you enough? Ok, I'll stop. It's cool, you might want to try it.


Also, we went for a drive in the hills with the boys today. Up over the old Pan de Azúcar road and into Cosquín. Obligatory pic.
