It is definitely a work in progress, but right now it is very easy to use and it gives reports for the last few days, last 3 weeks, and current month. Also, for mac users, it has the option to change your Adium statuses using osascript, with customizable status messages for a few situations.

weekly report

monthly report

You can find the source code and installation instructions at github (http://github.com/jao/termite).

I plan to add features like, defining projects and tags to the worked time, and exporting the reports to formats like pdf and csv.

It was a little crash course for a small group of friends, and we served 23 different beers, some were very rare (or at least hard to find), and some were new even to both of us.

We made a simple tasting form for each beer, and gave them to everyone that joined us there.

And a few hours later, all the bottles were empty, people were very happy and surprised with all the details they could now look for anytime they want to try a new beer, or even “judge” one of the many beers they were already used to.

Of course, this whole project will soon become an online catalog, and maybe one day even specific apps for a smartphone or two.

Back in the late 90s, I used to write mostly about my life, but I used this website more to test new technologies, and workarounds, solutions to get things done. I remember that I used a javascript/iframes/php hack to make “ajax”-like calls. And to my knowledge, this site was the very first one to use these emulated calls like that.

used to write comments without reloading the page

I remember how this code used to work, and I remember being kind of cool back then, all of my friends were thrilled by this. Sadly or fortunately, that is nothing special these days.

mysql queries and html code all mixed together, funny!

The php source is even weirder to look at, I miss the recklessness that was programming with sql calls being made from all over the place. I remember a couple years later I started writing my own framework (like every other programmer) and it was pretty solid by the time Ruby on Rails exploded everything with it’s simplicity and agility.

I am considering refactoring blogware, well, actually making a new blogware would be more accurate, probably using ruby and RoR, adding some cool web 2.0 features that you can find in current cms/blog tools. And maybe some crazy new things that will be properly used 5 years from now.

I made this because I always disliked those happy IM windows, with things bouncing around making weird sound effects. It was intially much simpler than this, but a fancy terminal is still good, as long as it is fast, right?

My friends Caffo, Taiza and Juca helped me with this since the beginning, and there is even a Variant (color style) made by Caffo that is in the package –  bu noone likes it.

I’ve heard that this might work on pidgin too, can someone confirm this? If not what changes do I need to make so this can work?

a sample message

I plan to only update this to fix bugs now, but if you have any ideas, suggestions or requests, just let me know.

To get this you can go to the Adium Xtras page, or you can get it straight from GitHub, where you can find more versions as well.
