And how did you make your iCal events appear on the Sandy website?

Google Calender appointments in Daily Digest

Hi, I'm already very glad that Sandy provides a calendar that I can subscribe to in gCal. But the other way round would suit me even better. Have you guys thought about an option to subscribe to multiple Google calendars from within Sandy? This is my situation:

• My wife and I share Google calendars. (She likes gCal so introducing her to Sandy is not an option.)


• I use SpanningSync to sync gCal and iCal. (I like iCal, so fully switching to Sandy is not an option for me either.)


• I'd love to have a single page that's frequently updated and shows all my to-do's and appointments from Sandy and gCal.

So couldn't I just provide Sandy with the private URLs of my calendars in gCal so she can import the appointments into my daily digest? Perhaps she could even remind me of them one day. That would be great.

Now it hides again. It also doesn't complain about being a program downloaded from the internet anymore. I didn't do anything. This is so weird.

I always used the updater in the past. Now I did as you said and downloaded Skitch from the website.

After restarting the app a few times and playing with the preferences it stays out of the dock. Yay!

But now it does not hide the application window on start.

Daniel replied on March 29, 2008 02:00 to the idea "Suggest a Satisfaction question as solved" in Get Satisfaction:

I'd allow both the customer or the company set the "solved" status, but as long as the customer did not agree, show an unobtrusive "unconfirmed" badge. Because to me as a customer, regarding the status, it really matters when the poster doesn't confirm. Why he isn't *satisfied*

My suggestions:

- "unanswered" (initial)
- "in the works" (company)
- "solved (unconfirmed)" (company)
- "solved" (poster)

A little more food for thought:

- You can now mark posts in "problem" threads as useful. Is that useful? To me, as a customer, such posts are only useful if they *solve* the problem. So in such threads you could call them "worked for me" instead. They are only "useful" to developers.
- If you call them "worked for me" you could automatically set the thread status to "solved" when a solution worked for a certain number of people.

I think it's important to put customers in control of this part of the process. That's what attracted me to this site in the first place.

Daniel replied on March 27, 2008 09:58 to the problem "Dock icon always showing" in plasq:

I ran the same copy each time for sure.

And the preferences setting didn't work. That's why I had to edit the plist file.

Daniel reported a problem in plasq on March 25, 2008 01:33:

Dock icon always showing

Since the latest update Skitch did always appear on the dock. I had to edit the plist file as described here:

http://getsatisfaction.com/rescuetime...

This made the dock icon disappear, but there is another annoying issue. I am always asked whether I *really* want to open that program on launch, as it was downloaded from the internet. That message should only show once, not always.

Daniel replied on February 14, 2008 04:08 to the problem "Multiple User Accounts on Mac" in RescueTime:

When I switch to another user the collector doesn't seem to start at all, although it's among the startup items. Manually starting it doesn't help either.

Thanks a lot! It worked. I'm a happy logger again. But unfortunately I ever had only a single copy of the program...

Still doesn't work on 10.5.1

Seems like you got it. Congratulations! :)

But I'm on Blogger and can't upload JS that easily, as far as I know. Too bad Twitter is ignoring this thread :(

Could you please post your source?

I don't know much about JavaScript either. It would be cool if you could give the callback function the ID as argument, but I don't know if that's possible.

Is it possible to copy the script, add another callback function, change the UL ID both in the script and in the HTML code, and upload it somewhere else? I tried to test this locally, but it didn't work. Again, I know nothing about JavaScript.
