jNetMap: Slow development

Submitted by rakudave on 30. May 2013 - 21:15

Ever yince I stared to work as a Software Engineer back in December of 2011, jNetMap development has been very slow. That's because the last thing you'll do after a day of coding is write more code. In other words, it's not dead - but is is hibernating.

Soooo... if you wanna help out - feel free to contact me ;-)

Jupiter Broadcasting Bookmarklet for Amazon

Outdated, use the extensions for Firefox, Chrome

Did you know that Jupiter Broadcasting is an Amazon affiliate? You can add the parameter tag=thelinactsho-20 to any Amazon product URL and JB will receive a little kickback. But this is cumbersome. So I built a bookmarklet that does the work for you:

JB Amazon

Drag the above link into you "Bookmarks Toolbar" and click it when you shop at Amazon.

Updated: jNetMap 0.5.2

Jupiter Broadcasting Boxee-App update: DIY

Submitted by rakudave on 12. October 2011 - 7:13

I just heard from Chris that the Boxee guys rejected the Jupiter Broadcasting App, as it is 'just' a compilation of RSS-Feeds. This is retarded for a multitude of reasons. All content-providing Boxee Apps are, by necessity, RSS-based. Some have a skin (such as the Rev3 App), others are exactly the same as the one I created (CNET's App for example), namely just a bunch of RSS-Feeds that Boxee's engine will display in a list. So it's ok if CNET uses the built-in RSS-reader, but not when others do???

So thanks to the Boxee guys you'll have to install it manually instead of being able to install it from the repo. Very convenient. -.-

  1. Download the ZIP-File
  2. Extract it to ~/.boxee/UserData/apps (on Linux, others see here)
  3. (Re-) Start Boxee

I'm not sure if this is possible on a Boxee-Box, but if you've built the box yourself, it works just fine.
