Cool RSS

to write a post about the cool tools of RSS gathering for a long time, today has prompted me to finally appear cool site: PostRank (and www.postrank.com / readers. htm), which is part of a larger system assessment feeds and links. Are evaluated from the RSS links on the basis of several popular sites, and click on the links ( PostRank: How it works .) What's interesting work (you could say a little work) for excavation :


In addition, the set is also a Firefox plugin that integrates with Google Reader and it shows in his note to each entry in the PostRanku.

Another important tool is Page2RSS . Based CHANGES website, it generates a single entry feeds. After entering the address we get the address of an RSS feed, you can add to your reader. If something changes on the typed page, we'll get the information. For what it might be useful: tracking page that does not have an RSS feed ( example, page editor, who probably will not have a version 1.0 ); tracking favorites or user-added links on the site, which has no such functionality (almost Web3.0, recently fell to dig up such a proposal); check or Google Celebrates a chance. The good thing about this solution is that the site has generated permanent address of the channel and thus, if you previously entered the same address, it can be seen eg when a party has not changed. But there is no perfect solution: Page2RSS not cope with very long parties (for example, wanted to monitor a large list of announcements changing irregularly 1-2 times per week.). Similar but slightly more advanced tools in this category: Feedity (I test and it seems that copes better with large files, provide additional options after logging in, such as memorizing the channel settings and editing) and dapper (this is nicer and offers a lot of cool features, but virtually every real test is suspended, so unless you have to wait.)

next program is RSS2PDF . Used to replace entries from the RSS feeds on a PDF document (such as ). PDF has a table of contents and contains the current entries, suitable for example to take the train (as you do not like the offline Google Reader), or print. It also gives us the possibility to generate such a document based on Google News. More

New dainty

Y exploded new delicious, now under new address: delicious.com
visible changes for the better, tags, nicely arranged. You can see better the nature of social networking, links, friends, the appearance of a transparent, generally you will see a step forward.
everything beautifully, but can not log on, which interestingly does not work or password reminders. Links are . I think I rushed too much.

Homebrew Why Does Gravity

Installing Django on Windows

a lot recently I use Windows, and found that, in addition we have some Cygwin environment for coding in Django . Some time ago I installed the version of "instant", which I would recommend this. But, as they say on the railway, in order:
to do something in Django are needed: first
Django itself,
second Python, of course,
third database, without it, of course, it can be dealt with, but it makes no sense, especially as we get it (the base) "gratis",
4th tool for handling database
5th sample application.
course, you should have a good editor, and that as we all know, everyone chooses the same (to me were, on the occasion of installed Eclipse + pydev , what if need it)
assumption of the entire installation to be too fast for such an environment, and as a goes a minimum configuration.

Django itself (point 1) charge from this link (for the moment directly from the archive file (~ 22MB) ), what's interesting is bundled with the Python, or section 2 we already have a head, and the variety we get the base (point . 3) in the form of sqlite. Applications grab sample from the same page or directly . It only remains to point 4, which is managing the database. Here you can easily use our Firefox add-on:
sqlite-manager (after downloading the file. Xpi you can drag it to the list of additives)
InstantDjango Installation is simple; run the self extracting archive that will indicate the destination directory and fruuu, unpacking takes a little long, so you have to show patience, but eventually all is an ~ 70MB.
Then we add at the end of the file start.bat :

echo Instant Django is now ready echo
In app directory: python manage.py runserver
echo.

and then it ( start.bat ) start and we have "quasikonsole" Django to run commands. Then just go to the application directory and we can, for example, run:

F: \\ django> cd crimemap
F: \\ django \\ crimemap> python manage.py runserver
Validating models ...
0 errors found Django version 0.97
-pre-SVN-6991, using settings 'crimemap.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/

and for example, we address
our sample application. Of course, it can be generated and write yourself, what would encourage ( often ). If only because the sample application does not belong to the masterpieces of art and programming requires changes to work with the default settings InstantDjango.

I still had to write an update on the installation of Django, but it turns out that, in the Utilities folder is no longer appropriate batch: update.bat .

If you interested in this entry, it can read other entries on Django or on Windows, we strongly encourage you to glance at my collection of links , which recently periodically to divide.
