Exciting News: MediaGoblin moves to SQL tomorrow

A7B5BC2V79RH. Helping upstream projects directly seems to be a much more logical choice to put work into, instead of rewriting code to enhance it for oneself only. Today, the development time was invested into the new video.js interface for MediaGoblin, to give it a real “production grade” finish with MediaGoblin visual identity and to make it easier for other hackers in the future, to change the skins to their liking.

For tomorrow, MediaGoblin promises a real treat: The change from MongoDB to SQL.

You will have to wait to find out, if it's just one of April Fools' Day's hoaxes or the real thing :)

Watterott-Electronic sponsors Hardware

Buying Sparkfun products and being in europe always was a little bit annoying due to shipping times & customs hassle. Stephan Watterott, CEO of Watterott-Electronic, offers many sparkfun products and other greatly hackable devices and components in his Shop, shipped directly from Germany.

Stephan was also kind enough to become a sponsor and is willing to provide necessary kits and components for Apollo-NG's Hackerspace and R&D Lab, to let other hackers play with them and to enhance the functionality of the Odyssey or Aquarius:

  • BeagleBoard for Odyssey's MCU
  • Sensors for Argus
  • Power Sensors (Allegro)

When the current maintenance cycle ends and the next R&D cycle begins, all development tasks will be weight by importance, to identify priorities and then decide what is going to be needed.

Thanks for your support Stephan, we greatly appreciate your generosity.

Sharing is caring - not tracking

Operating and providing a website for a project always inherently leads to finding ways, to let more people know about your content. Social media bookmarking is a great way to do just that. But, as every so often, many people compromise comfort for reasonable security, including some javascript $social_media_provider offers to easily integrate it, allowing $social_media_provider to track each visit a user makes on any other website, that includes just the button/badge. Most users aren't even aware of the fact that this is happening in the background.
