where my zing at
― Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 11:46 (fourteen years ago) link
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.

Rejected for having "henfap" as one of the keywords.
Umm...could this be explained, somehow?
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 17 October 2009 03:18 (fourteen years ago) link
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?
― Elvis Telecom, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 01:31 (fourteen years ago) link
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
― remembrance of schwings past (gbx), Friday, 12 August 2011 14:41 (twelve years ago) link
<-- also interested
― diamonddave85, Friday, 12 August 2011 16:13 (twelve years ago) link
<-- 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?
― stet, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 23:17 (twelve years ago) link
I would pay for and use both.

i’m not sure how i feel about this
― Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 14 May 2020 20:21 (three years ago) link
Me too. I spent ages wondering if it was worth it now that browsers are so good and fast. But I got tired of testing Zing Touch in the simulator so then I made this as a wrapper ... and then I found I was using it nearly exclusively. Need to add search but it's pretty usable. I'll put up a beta if people would like a play.
― stet, Thursday, 14 May 2020 20:51 (three years ago) link
yes, please!
― DJI, Thursday, 14 May 2020 21:20 (three years ago) link
I'm in.
― Elvis Telecom, Friday, 15 May 2020 01:22 (three years ago) link
OK, here goes!It's definitely a beta but it's OK to use for checking bookmarks and posting.Notes:- Search isn't implemented yet- Nor are themes (but dark mode works)- Can't favourite borads- Can't cmd-c on selected message text, you have to right-click- Single-pane mode (close the message list from X) is a little buggy.- The menubar checker drags off but doesn't resize.Download here: https://www.ilxor.com/MacZing.zip

(Oh also: drag it out of the Downloads folder before opening it for best results)
― stet, Friday, 15 May 2020 09:30 (three years ago) link
downloading now - thanks stet. zing is genuinely one of the best apps on my phone, so looking forward to giving this a go.
― Fizzles, Friday, 15 May 2020 09:36 (three years ago) link
and posting from it now : )

Stet is the man
― calstars, Friday, 15 May 2020 09:50 (three years ago) link
Trying this now. thanks. Right now all my bookmarks are duplicated. Two lines for every one (to the tune of "Surf City").

oooh that's weird. Can you check you don't accidentally have two accounts listed? (In preferences go to the accounts tab)
― stet, Friday, 15 May 2020 14:31 (three years ago) link
Same account listed twice, yes.
― Louder Than Bach's Bottom (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 May 2020 14:39 (three years ago) link
I deleted one at which point it logged me off. I logged back on. Now it shows no accounts.
― Louder Than Bach's Bottom (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 May 2020 14:41 (three years ago) link
well done me - if you trying adding once more it should hopefully work
― stet, Friday, 15 May 2020 14:45 (three years ago) link
Now it's there twice again.
― Louder Than Bach's Bottom (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 May 2020 14:46 (three years ago) link
But this time I deleted the first and not the second and now I'm back down to one.
― Louder Than Bach's Bottom (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 May 2020 14:47 (three years ago) link
Trying this now -- works very nicely from here!
