But today, I see within us all (myself included) the replacement of complex inner density with a new kind of self-evolving under the pressure of information overload and the technology of the “instantly available”. A new self that needs to contain less and less of an inner repertory of dense cultural inheritance—as we all become [...]
In Clearspace we store dates using their millisecond representation rather than as a full fledged date in database tables because we don’t want to have to worry about how each database represents dates, but that means that whenever you’re looking at a Clearspace database table, you see values like this:
1172822399000
instead of something like this:
2007-03-01 23:59:59.000
which [...]
It looks like it was almost 2 months ago that I wrote a blog post about the Clearspace plugin for Firefox (called Clearfox), promising that I would follow up with the details on the JavaScript side of the project. I guess time flies when you’re having fun.
Getting started on the JavaScript sidebar [...]
I rolled out the Clearfox plugin on the Jive Software Community site a couple weeks ago and got some good feedback and some bad feedback. A number of people said they tried to install the Firefox part of the plugin, restarted Firefox and then didn’t see the Clearspace icon like my screenshots / screencast showed. [...]
It’s been embarassingly quiet on this blog of late, I apologize for all the delicious links, although a case could be made that blogs were originally nothing more than sharing links so maybe I shouldn’t be apologizing, but that’s a different blog post. Today I want to talk about the thing I’ve been working [...]
In my day job over at Jive Software I get to work on the crazy cool Clearspace product and unless you’ve been reading the system requirements lately, you probably didn’t notice that we support six different database platforms: MySQL, Oracle, Postgres, DB2, SQL Server and HSQLDB. Clearspace borrowed a number of classes from Jive Forums [...]
I’ve been using ROME for a couple years now and I’m still learning new things. Today I was working on an issue in Clearspace where we give users the ability to show RSS / Atom feeds in a widget, optionally giving them the choice to show the full content of each item in the feed [...]
I’ve spent way more time than I should have the last couple weeks working to help migrate a website built against Jive Forums to run against a Clearspace X instance. As part of the migration, one of the things I did was to move all the data syndication that had been done with RSS and [...]
Gotcha! Please excuse the corporate shilling for a second: the company I work for, Jive Software, is running a pretty cool promotion right now: write up a blog post about how you or your company is using Clearspace, Jive Forums, Openfire or Spark and if you’re blog post is selected as the most thorough, [...]
Looks like we’re hanging with some pretty big players on the homepage: Google, Microsoft, Novell, Palm.
