Thanks for that bug report. I think I've nailed it now in Firefox and Camino — still need to test in Opera. – adactio, on November 23, 2009 23:49

Right. I've spent the weekend dabbling with Ajax and you can now do in-page huffduffing (as well as in-page editing of things you have already huffduffed).

Give the tyres a good kick and see what you think. It should make the flow of huffduffing multiple items go smoother.

That's really, really useful — thank you!

I'll look into getting date-sorted search results implemented sometime this week if I can.

I'll look into this and see what I can do. I can see how it would be useful.

adactio replied on November 21, 2009 11:26 to the idea "Date sortable search results" in Huffduffer:

I'll see what I can do. I think the real challenge would be in providing a discrete UI for date sorting. If you can think of any examples of sites that do this already, that would be very useful.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Y'know, it's funny you should mention this... I was thinking the same thing myself. Wherever the "huffduff it" or "edit" buttons appear, it would be nice to switch to a form in situ.

It'll take a bit of Ajax fiddling but I reckon it's doable. I'm putting it on my list of things to get done.

Thanks for suggesting this; it's good to know that it's not just me.

adactio reported a problem in Gowalla on November 08, 2009 16:58:

Bacn

I don't want to receive any email notifications from Gowalla. For example, when someone wants to be my friend, I don't want to get an email about it. On the settings page, under "Email", there are quite a few options but none of them cover this scenario.

adactio started following the idea "Don't want any emails" in Gowalla.

Create a collective of fellow huffduffers

If you've been subscribing to podcasts by multiple huffduffers, you might have experienced a bit of frustration; there's no way for iTunes to recognise duplicates (or recognise stuff that you've already huffduffed).

As of today, you can simply subscribe to a single podcast. Just add people to your "collective" and then you'll get everything huffduffed by them ...but without any duplicates, and without anything that you yourself have huffduffed.

As an example, here are all the people I have added to my collective:

http://huffduffer.com/adactio/collective/people

And here's everything huffduffed by my collective:

http://huffduffer.com/adactio/collective

To add someone to your collective, just press the "+" button on their profile.

You can read more about this new feature on my blog.

I hope you find this new feature useful. Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.

Why yes, October is Huffduffer's birthmonth! Thank you!

According to my profile, I've been huffduffing since October 3rd, 2008 so I guess I've missed the exact birthday. But I didn't write this blog post announcement until October 18th, so we can make that the "official" birthday. ;-)

I should write another blog post to describe what a great year it's been.

Thank you again for noticing ...that's really made my day.

It's Markdown. So basically it will format list items, italics, bold, etc. but that's pretty much it.

Changes to the homepage

I've been making a few tweaks to the layout of the homepage. All the same information is available as before, but I've changed the visual hierarchy. Where previously "New" and "Popular" items had equal prominence, I've now given the "Popular" items a wider container to highlight what's "hot" right now (and relegated popular tags to further down the page).

Let me know what you think.

I've also updated the /popular page. Whereas previously it listed the all-time most popular items, it now lists the most popular items in the last week. The "older" and "newer" pagination links allow you to see popular items further back in time (and if you want to see a different time range, feel free to hack the query string).

adactio replied on September 30, 2009 09:18 to the problem "Only seeing most recent item in RSS feed in iTunes 9.0.1.8" in Huffduffer:

I just checked your feed and I can subscribe to it fine and see all the items in it.

Perhaps it's something in your iTunes settings? Try clicking on "Settings" in the bar across the bottom of the podcast section in iTunes and see if there's a setting there that's preventing you from seeing all the episodes in your feed.

Hope that helps.

adactio replied on September 29, 2009 22:23 to the problem "Only seeing most recent item in RSS feed in iTunes 9.0.1.8" in Huffduffer:

Strange: you should be seeing up to 20 items in the feed. What's your Huffduffer username? I'll look into it.

adactio replied on September 23, 2009 09:39 to the idea "it would be neat if one could add a tag to more than file at once" in Huffduffer:

That sounds like it could be useful, but I'd be interested to hear if anyone else thinks so.

Thanks for bringing it up.

adactio replied on September 23, 2009 09:38 to the idea "it would be neat if one could adjust the file order in feeds" in Huffduffer:

I've got to be honest, I don't think this is an issue for 99% of the people using Huffduffer. I can see how it would be nice to have but I'm not going to prioritise it. Sorry.

adactio replied on September 23, 2009 09:36 to the problem "Huffduffed? Doesn't show up, though..." in Huffduffer:

Hmm... that's very strange. Want to try huffduffing it again and let me know if the same thing happens?

adactio replied on August 14, 2009 09:15 to the idea "Tweet this on huffduffer" in Huffduffer:

I *could* do this by getting people to associate their Huffduffer profiles with their Twitter profiles (using Twitter's OAuth API) but I'm kind of reluctant to contribute to more link spam on Twitter.

Does anyone else think that this would be a good idea? If there's enough support for it, I can look into adding it.
