@millette I'll probably go in Montréal in two weeks. We should catch up :)

I wanted to make sure my caps were correct first.
-
@hildjj I was annoyed at first by having to post bug reports to the forum. The get overlooked sometimes.
-
@darianapatrick Now you're talking over my head. But you (we?) should write a URL shortener that does that autopmagically.
-
@darianapatrick, @mattack: Consider server-side redirects, iframes, etc. Not a terribly tractable problem.
-
@darianapatrick: even worse, their forum software failed in FireFox3. I had to use (gasp) IE.
-
@hildjj Wha?!?! Oh man, that's embarrasing for them.
-
@jasonriedy: Not entirely intractable either. Those issues exist for normal URLs as well, and require user dilligence.
-
@hildjj What's IE? apt-cache show couldn't find it.

@jasonriedy @mattack It seems to me that previewability would be defense in depth for diligent users.
-
@darianapatrick @jasonroedy I'd like the ability to preview a link... Amy I going to youtube? someone's blog? flickr? where?
-
@mattack I concur. Maybe checking out existing short URL providers and seeing if we can submit a patch makes more sense.
-
@mattack Rather than building an new one from scratch.
-
@darianapatrick true. re-inventing the wheel is not a good thing.
-
@mattack Check this out: http://is.gd/instructions.php
-
@darianapatrick that's cool! I'm going to start using that one.
-
@mattack @darianapatrick I plan to roll out TightURL on http://ur1.ca/ , and add OEmbed support http://www.oembed.com/
-
@evan if you're thinking of potential "wishlists", mine would include: 1. direct messages and 2. tracking replies ala summize :)
-
@millette I held off because a) I didn't want to interrupt the iSummit liveblogging and b) I'm having probs with the multilingual stuff.
-
@evan agreed, unless your fledgling laconica server is looking for activity in its public stream. :)
-
@sportstwit We could set a mode so that remote notices show up in the public stream. Would that work?
-
@evan that be available? And what does that mean for the user experience when linking to non oEmbed providers?
-
@evan that would be fantastic and i think a lot of laconica users would thank you
-
@evan i'm still confused about oEmbed. what does it do? why implement on ur1.ca ?
-
@sportstwit OK, I'll make that a priority for next code drop.
-
@evan if i ever get laconica running, i want to provide json templates for all notification views #petproject
-
@evan Cool on the OEmbed support planned. That would be nice. Consider Conditional GET support for your feeds. http://bit.ly/JDFr1
-
@evan thanks from future sporti.ca users.

@tabrez <http://identi.ca/tabrez> @evan <http://identi.ca/evan> @rdworth <http://identi.ca/rdworth> Bookmarklet! Yay!

-
@austinhill totally! and I miss you too guys! I'll let everyone know, maybe grab a beer or something.
