in How Do I Add FriendFeed Comments to My Blog on Chris Brogan
WooHoo! Great to see. To swap them around you just need to put the wp_ffcomments(); tag after the comments_template(); tag on your template

in How Do I Add FriendFeed Comments to My Blog on Chris Brogan
Actually Chris, I've just checked in a test release that should fix this if the 'www' thing is the problem : http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/friendfee... This will now consider http://www.foo.com/ & http://foo.com/ to be the same domain.

Please let me know how this goes with fixing the problem

cheers

in How Do I Add FriendFeed Comments to My Blog on Chris Brogan
Hi Chris

There may be an issue with your site being at www.chrisbrogan.com and on FriendFeed it being listed as chrisbrogan.com (ie sans 'www'). Another person was having a problem like this. I think if you add the www to the url on friendfeed & then go into the settings of the plugin & click 'reset comments/likes' if *should* work.

If it doesn't tick the 'Display debug information' box and then click the reset button again. This will dump a whole lot of text to the screen. If you email that to me (gdalziel at gmail) I should be able to see what's going on

cheers
Glenn

PS Thanks to everyone else here for the helpful suggestions, the community around FriendFeed never ceases to amaze me

Sorry Mark, I'm afraid I didn't read your post before writing the plugin. Unfortunately that means that I can't in good faith split any profit with you. Based on the profit I've made from my earlier plugins this means you'll be missing out on 1/2 of nothing :)

Thanks for the mention though. I hope it's helpful in keeping conversations going. I like the idea of bringing conversations together. With the addition of disqus into the FriendFeed service, it means that every post on my site & every comment on my site is being replicated in FF. If they can work out a way to link those together, and deal with the duplicate content issues, I think they may jsut corner a fair section of the conversation market.

BTW, you might want to update the link to the plugin, that link is just to a page showing it working while I was developing it, I've got an actual post explaining how to install it now: http://blog.slaven.net.au/archives/2008/03/27/f...

in Comparing two arrays (or IEnumerables) in C# on Development on a shoestring
This is why I like posting this stuff, I always learn so much! I've updated the code

in Comparing two arrays (or IEnumerables) in C# on Development on a shoestring
Ah, now I see it. They Joys of working with enumerators. I like the non-shortcuting solution, but I tend to agree with your opinion on readability over nominal performance improvement. Besides, I speed tested both ways on a massive collection & I couldn't detect any material difference.

Thanks for your help with this, and for your patience in getting your point through! I added in some exception handling to dispose of resources in this revision too.

in Comparing two arrays (or IEnumerables) in C# on Development on a shoestring
Jurgen, I've tested the function with different length strings & it returns false as expected. The reason is that it keeps looping until either enumerators has no more items, then it checks if both have no more items. If they both have no more, they're the same length, so return true. If the other enumerator has more items then they're different lengths, so it returns false.

Both the following tests pass:

[Test]
public void TestDifferentLengthStrings()
{
string a1 = "fi";
string a2 = "fish";

Assert.IsFalse(a1.IsEqualTo(a2));
}

[Test]
public void TestDifferentLengthStringsReverse()
{
string a1 = "fish";
string a2 = "fi";

Assert.IsFalse(a1.IsEqualTo(a2));
}

in Take A Sneak Peek At WordPress 2.5 on SheGeeks
All my plugins still worked, the update was pretty transparent as far as the font-end of my blog was concerned. I uploaded all the new files & it just worked. The first time I accessed wp-admin it prompted me with the usual update the database page, but that worked fine too. I've not seen any reason to not update now.

Note: I accept no responsibility if your server burns to the ground because you updated :)

in Comparing two arrays (or IEnumerables) in C# on Development on a shoestring
Jurgen, thanks for your comments,honestly, I'd forgotten about the Count() method enumerating over IEnumerable if the cast failed, good point. I'd also forgotten about the ability to call the method on null. Noob mistake, but that's why I like publicly releasing code.

I've updated the code with the changes.

If both IEnumerables are null I'm returning true, based on the idea that .net returns true for (null == null). Obviously if either but not both are null, then return false. Also I'm no longer checking count, I'm just enumerating over the collections until one of them runs out, then checking whether either still has more items. If either do, then it returns false, as they can't be equal. If not return true.

In reference to your first point, as to why IEnumerable, I'm guessing you're asking why not just ICollection. I guess I did IEnumerable because I like making things as decoupled as possible. It can compare iEnumerables, so we may as well. I've run some test now comparing 2 strings, which inherit from IEnumerable<char> and it works fine.</char>

in Take A Sneak Peek At WordPress 2.5 on SheGeeks
I updated my blog to the current dev version from the subversion repository. It seems stable enough. I like the new design. Much cleaner and less 'babyish' than the original. It looks more like a mature application now.

My personal favourite feature is the ability to automatically update plugins that use the wordpress.org plugin hosting. It will tell you when an update is available, download it and update locally.

The post/page editing is nice too. The new layout is much more intuitive and the editor is more featured. I'm liking it, it's a much bigger update than a lot of the previous releases.

Sorry, I've never used Diigo, but it's more javascript based isn't it? Not sure that will work because FeedDemon won't execute javascript in sendto

With FeedDemon, you know you can customise the 'Send to' list. Have a look in the FeedDemon/Data/SendTo folder, you can add xml files in there to add to the list, it's only a single line of xml needed

in Feed Locations WordPress Plugin on Development on a shoestring
Stephen, it is the second approach. If you're after the first, I suggest you check out the official feedburner plugin ( http://blogs.feedburner.com/feedburner/archives... ). To be honest, it has really rendered this plugin redundant :)
