Zing: A (beta) ILX client for Macs

thought of making it (the full Mac OSX version) growl? </moon + stick>

Does anyone know about a mac emulator that will run this on a pc? (Yeah yeah, nelson ha ha again)

It's not at Apple yet, there are a few bugs still (mostly with bloody webkit and with the OG phone running out of memory on big threads). Next week I reckon.

Al: yeah, that looks easy enough. In my build here I post notifications when new bookmarks or new posts arrive, so I could stick Growl on the end of that.

this combination gives me chills

Just wait until Stet programs it to have each post talk in the original poster's voice.

who is the original poster, if not you ned?

Mysterious.

WANT. You are awesome, Stet.

Yeah once this is on the app store ima get it for sure, even if you wanna charge for it :)

bug report? i had zing running earlier and it just randomly quit. i wasn't even using it, it was just on. that is probably not so helpful!

Ah, yeah, it'll have been the session timing out. It falls on its ass if that happens, but i've fixed that now. Much better Mac Zing coming when I get this iPhone one out.

^ilx's most inspirational figure

we need a bait thread for the apple testers

You snake.

<3

Any idea of an ETA on the iPhone app? I'm salivating.

I'm goin to submit it on Thursday and then it's down to Apple ...

does zing refresh in realtime?

Is there anyway to get apps other than via the App store?

yeah can you not let 10 of us test it or something? or did they do away w/tht

woo-hoo, this is all kinds of awesome

No real-time refresh, that'd take server push and that's a lotta work for not much better than hitting refresh.

I can do private builds but they're clunky a kind of a pain. Will look into it if Apple drag their heels

is it really bad i finally got the ipod touch upgrade so i can use this when it is eventually available?

what in the hell, how did i miss this

this post is coming from inside the app

Hahah tza thats what is going to be my impetus too ;_;

I know, this has persuaded me into buying an iPhone finally :-)

Is it on the store? How've you got it gbx?

i think he meant just zing for regular computers?

Ah.

Any word from the app store?

keep your pants on

where my zing at

I thinking it going to be this week. Surely.

While I'm waiting, I'm adding bookmarks to Zing Mac, but was also wondering if anyone would like a like menubar thing that glowed when you had updated bookmarks, showed you what they were, and opened them in a browser?

Bugger. Rejected for having "henfap" as one of the keywords. Had to submit new binaries, so could take another 7-14 days. Sigh.

I will never buy another Apple product as long as I live, this is lunacy.

heh, meant to quote there. Anyway, f u apple and your henfap hating ways

Rejected for having "henfap" as one of the keywords.

Umm...could this be explained, somehow?

You're not allowed keywords that aren't linked to the app, and I figured it'd take even longer to explain the link as to just take it out.

"it's, uhh, something you need to have." lol, might not cut it with testers. thanks for all your work, stet, this is gonna be great.

Any signs of a new update to the desktop app?

Oh, yeah! Are folks still using it? I don't get any stats, so I didn't know. If you are, yeah, I learned a lot from the iPhone version so could do a pretty big update, with bookmarking and polls etc. I'll see about making some time for it.

roxor!

i would be interested in this

<-- also interested

<-- could also assist with development

If I do the work required to make an iPad version it'll make doing a new Mac version way easier. I cld just do a framework that wraps the API essentially, and you could build on that maybe?

I would pay for and use both.

So there y'are, six quid guaranteed.

can i just say that with the new system font on iOS this is finally REALLY THE WAY ILX IS SUPPOSED TO BE
