Is there a URL pattern to use for sharing a link?

I would like to add a Twitter link to my site: is there a way to use a URL pattern to pass in the link I want to share on Twitter to automate the sharing of the link?

I just installed the latest build, but I'm also running into this problem. I'm using Mac OS 10.5.5, no proxy or firewall.

I'm hoping to be able to use Yuuguu again soon!

I was able to edit Info.plist and hide the dock icon successfully, but now the menu bar icon doesn't display a menu when I click on it (so that I can update preferences or otherwise interact with RescueTime).

Now, even when I set LSUIElement back to 0, I can't get the dock icon back.

Guess I should reinstall RescueTime now.

Global logging toggling shortcut in Mac?

Is there a way to enable a global shortcut for toggling logging in the Mac version of the client? I currently have to make sure that RescueTime is my active application before I can toggle logging, instead of being able to press the shortcut combination while in any application.

Web 2.0 my milestones

Editing a milestone takes more clicks than it needs to: wouldn't it be nice to be able to drag and drop a milestone on the calendar view?

More Basecamp templates!

The to-do list template feature is awesome, but having even more templates would be even better. I'm thinking milestone templates, file templates (in terms of applying the same set of files to new projects for documentation), etc. What do you think?

Scott Fleckenstein's reply to "My Time Machine backs-up too much data" was just promoted to the most useful! cluelessblues and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

imonz,

Do you use vmware or parallels?

Time machine is more than just a copy-to-external-hd agent: it keeps a history of files as they change. As you change a document it will continually backup the new versions.

If it is consuming 12GB every day that means you are probably affecting a lot of large files during your daily use. In most cases I've seen, there are two causes: Downloading lots of video, or using virtualization products. Seeing that we are talking 12GB a day, I would imagine your most likely culprit is a single huge file that is being changed constantly (the virtual hard drive file for a virtual machine fits the bill) rather than video given that 12GB of video to go through per day is a whole lot!

I would recommend tracking down this file and adding it into the Time Machine exclusion list. You can find that under the time machine preferences.
